A woman in profile beneath a black hat, a white rose set against the brim. The palette is restrained to sepia, cream and charcoal, and the quiet of the painting is the point. Nothing raises its voice.
The Hush 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.
