This evocative mixed media assemblage features a stylized portrait of a man and a woman, rendered in a charmingly naive, outsider art aesthetic. The artist utilizes a sophisticated "found object" technique, meticulously constructing the figures' attire and adornments from a dense mosaic of vintage buttons, sea shells, and costume jewelry elements. The female figure wears an elaborate, dimensional headpiece composed of yellow florals and shells, while the male figure is depicted in a suit expertly fashioned from ivory-toned buttons. The composition is set against a textured, painterly background that balances the folk-art whimsicality with a modern, abstract sensibility.
Medium: Mixed media and assemblage (oil, buttons, shells, and jewelry on board)
Dimensions: H: 28in x L: 23in
Frame: Presented in a rustic, weathered wooden frame.
