Description
This art print features a striking portrait of a woman with captivating green eyes and bold red lips, set against a vivid red background. Did you know that during World War II, French women in Paris wore red lipstick as a form of resistance against the German Nazi occupation?
Nowadays, red lipstick may not seem extraordinary, but in those days the Nazis disapproved of women wearing makeup.
This is a tribute to all women who resist patriarchal injustice.
I used expressive brushstrokes and a loose, painterly style to add an element of raw emotion and intensity to this piece. The contrast between the warm, fiery backdrop and the cooler tones of her skin and clothing creates a dynamic visual impact. Her gaze is direct and intense, inviting the viewer to engage with her expression, which seems both confident and contemplative. The blend of realism and abstraction in this artwork makes it a compelling and evocative portrait.
