Technique & Style
The painting's texture and appearance suggest a spontaneous or even violent creative process, with evidence of scraping or smudging. The overall effect is raw and unrefined.

Artist
Georgeta liked to carve shapes into wood, then press them onto paper until the ink rose like a stain.
