This expressive oil on canvas painting by Yana Medow captures a bold, oversized-eyed blonde woman with a cigarette, balancing innocence, rebellion, and dark humor. Rich impasto brushstrokes, vivid colors, and exaggerated facial features create a contemporary figurative artwork that explores beauty standards, identity, and modern contradictions. A striking statement piece for collectors of contemporary, pop surrealist, and expressive portrait art. Original contemporary painting. Oil on canvas. This one-of-a-kind original painting on canvas. Unframed. The artwork is signed on the back. https://www.instagram.com/yana.medow/ https://www.yanamedow.com/ BIO Yana Medow is a contemporary artist from St. Petersburg, currently based in Alicante.
