Work on Panel by Mark Westervelt: Flambe

Copper-haired head, feathery topknot, and a very small white square to hold them.

This work on panel is by Mark Westervelt, and is ca. 2014. It is paint on panel. His paint skins are made by painting on plastic and peeling the sheet off, so the side against the plastic is glossy and the side exposed to air is matte. Small square work with a head in streaky orange and rust strokes, its eyes barely defined. A small topknot sprouts at the crown with a few wispy tail marks. It is 8 inches wide, 1.75 deep and 8 high.

A hairstyle with its own weather system.
