About this artwork
The work appears to be the head of a woman, but this painting is about superficial appearance and deception. The flesh and hair of the head and face have been mechanically processed far beyond a natural state; but conversely, the approach has been as bold and painterly as that used in a ‘traditional’ portrait painting approach. The subject however is not an individual living woman but a mass produced shop window mannequin - thus any bearing on reality…
is far less than skin deep. This painting is on a box sided canvas and can be hung with or without a frame.

Credentials
- Works on commission
« My work is original and authentic and is developing from the people, places, objects, or experiences I encounter in my life, from formal representation to creative abstraction. »
Peter Holt describes his work as always being representational in one way or another. The painter, who is based in the United Kingdom, creatively develops his compositions from an original observation of reality. Holt's artistic approach exploits the essential qualities of the medium in order to achieve a unity of materials, technique, and subject. He often experiments different techniques for subjects, which leads to a variety of interpretations and variations on a particular theme.
