Portrait of a man in black by Sarah Cripps in Leighton Buzzard

Portrait of a man in black

The composition of this painting is like a high school yearbook, raising questions of identity and belonging. The light source, background and clothes/hair all focus attention on the face. His hair has echoes of a crown or an Egyptian pharaoh. There are both sharp and soft transitions, warm and cool colours and use of large and small brushes. The brushstrokes follow the form of the face and the different textures of the jumper, face, eyes, lips and hair are brought out.
