Jeune femme rousse

Jeune femme rousse by Virginie Martin Blaise is an oil-on-canvas-board portrait that explores presence and emotional nuance through a refined, classical approach to figurative painting.

The composition centers on the sitter’s face and upper body, rendered with careful attention to light and skin tones. The warm reds of the hair contrast gently with the muted green background, creating depth while maintaining a restrained chromatic harmony.

This work reflects an ongoing exploration of portraiture focused on intimacy and psychological subtlety. The modest format enhances the sense of closeness, inviting the viewer into a quiet, contemplative encounter with the subject.
