Original abstract figurative painting by Purvis Young, the influential Miami-based artist known for his raw, emotionally charged imagery and distinctive use of layered paint and distressed surfaces. This work features a haunting, loosely rendered face emerging through bold color fields and textured brushwork, reflecting Young’s signature expressive style and social narrative themes. Executed on board and presented in a painted wooden frame that complements the work’s gritty, urban aesthetic. A compelling example of Purvis Young’s recognizable visual language and artistic impact.
