A portrait without colour, carried entirely by tone. Black, white and the greys between them build a woman in a wide hat, a pale rose at the brim, her face turned to the edge of the frame. What remains when colour is taken away is structure.
The Ash belongs to The Unseen, a Pennywell series of portraits of women whose faces are half-given and half-kept.
Each piece is produced to order. Available as a fine art print, a hand-stretched canvas, or a framed canvas in a black or oak float frame.
