Common Faces, number 22, original oil painting by Tang Hai Guo
It is the age of seriousness, and the tension can lead to confusion and a sense of despair. Happy smiling looks come too infrequently.
In Tang's common faces series, he uses a style that is closer to the Modernism and expressionism that came to art in the early 20th century, and we were really attracted to several, including this one. Her hair style, with two pigtails and bangs, is typical Chinese. The colors are nice and her dress is formal, making it an overall fun portrait.
