About this artwork
Portrait of a Black woman with a headscarf.
I wanted to highlight the beauty and pride of a captivating gaze, creating a contrast between the softness of the portrait and the textured background to enhance the subject's presence. The expression, both gentle and determined, evokes inner strength and natural nobility. The harmony of warm colors and the delicate brushstrokes lend this work a timeless quality that will appeal to lovers of art and inspiring… portraits.

Jacques Maupas
France
Jacques Maupas approached oil painting through a self-taught process, marked by periods of intense practice and breaks related to his professional life. It was in his thirties, encouraged by his mother's example, that he began to master the medium before dedicating himself fully to his art since his retirement in 2016.
His work revolves primarily around the human figure, with a marked predilection for female portraits and nudes. Through oil on canvas, he explores the precision of features and the subtlety of expressions, seeking to capture the immediate emotion conveyed by a face or a gaze.
Each work is born from a personal feeling in the face of the beauty or character of a subject, whether it be the grace of a ballerina or the irony of a scene from everyday life. Jacques Maupas projects these sensations onto the canvas by playing with contrasts of light and anatomical details to bring his figurative compositions to life.
