About this artwork

This work belongs to the series Jazz & Gin – Faces of the Night and depicts a female figure in the spirit of classic 20th-century bar aesthetics. The depiction is not conceived as a scene, but rather as a concentrated pictorial moment in which posture, gaze, and gesture are paramount.

The figure holds a glass in its hand, without any concrete action arising from it. Color, form, and line create a quiet tension between nostalgia and timeless… presence. The expression appears composed and self-assured, free from pose or staging.

The naive-expressionist visual language combines clear areas of color with a deliberate simplification of forms. This creates an open image that conveys atmosphere without being prescriptive.

Works on commission

Ellen Frischbutter is a trained psychologist whose artistic path gradually became central to her practice. Her early work with mandalas explored non-verbal expression and intuitive perception, forming the basis of her visual language.

She later turned fully to painting, working with watercolor, acrylic, and finally oil, which allowed her to develop layered surfaces and spatial depth. The process of building a painting in visible strata remains essential to her approach.

Her works arise from inner imagery, memory fragments, and atmosphere rather than direct narration. Figurative elements often merge with expressive abstraction, creating open compositions that invite interpretation.

Ellen Frischbutter is a member of the ASM Club – International Artists Association and the VAA – Visual Artists Association. Shortlisted for VAA Art500 | Momentum Programs | Preferred Artist.
