About this work
A young dark-skinned woman stands in a sunlit garden, resting one raised arm against a tree trunk while the other hand rests at her hip. She wears an elaborate layered necklace of orange, blue and white beads, silver and gold bangles stacked along both forearms, and a beaded belt over a wrapped skirt; her torso is bare. Behind her, yellow-flowering branches and green foliage fill a dappled outdoor setting.
Warm ochre and umber tones model the figure against cool blue-grey and green passages of foliage, with sunlight picking out the jewelry in thick, confident strokes. The brushwork is loose and painterly, built with visible palette-knife and brush texture, giving the portrait an immediate, sunlit vitality.
