Self Portrait Artist: Chinwe Russell Acrylic on Canvas Circa 2021 - Title: Self Portrait---Artist: Chinwe Russell---Medium: Acrylic on Canvas---Year: Circa 2021 ----In this vibrant self-portrait, Chinwe Russell expresses identity and emotion through bold colour and abstract form. The faceless figure, painted in deep blues and reds, radiates both strength and introspection. The bright yellow background, punctuated by energetic strokes of crimson, ochre, and violet, evokes a sense of vitality and resilience.----The artist’s headwrap and posture suggest cultural pride and quiet confidence, while the absence of facial features invites viewers to connect with the universal themes of womanhood, presence, and self-definition. A striking and deeply personal work, this piece captures Russell’s ongoing exploration of individuality, heritage, and the power of colour as emotional language. Dimensions: 50 x 60 x 2 cm
