Masquerading is an original contemporary painting on paper that explores portraiture, identity, and the intimacy of being seen. Two expressive figures occupy the composition, rendered through energetic brushwork, bold outlines, and layered fields of color. Their direct gazes create a sense of connection and familiarity, while the vibrant orange, turquoise, pink, yellow, and green palette gives the painting a playful, contemporary energy.
Floral forms rise behind the figures, creating a lively backdrop that contrasts with their quiet, introspective expressions. The loose, gestural handling of paint allows the work to move between abstraction and representation, capturing the feeling of a fleeting moment rather than a perfectly defined portrait. Before the Selfie reflects on the tradition of painted portraiture while playfully referencing our contemporary culture of photographs, self-presentation, and digital images.
With its expressive figures and saturated color palette, Before the Selfie makes a distinctive statement in a living room, bedroom, office, or creative commercial space. This original figurative artwork is an engaging choice for collectors and interior designers seeking contemporary art with personality, color, and a strong sense of human connection.
Artwork is shown framed for visualization purposes only. The painting is on paper and will ship flat.
