Illustration of a stylized figure with a large mustache wearing a striped shirt and holding a bouquet of flowers, with handwritten text below that reads "I am an Experienced Mother" and "And I am an Experienced Child" dated Dec 68. The artwork is numbered and signed by the artist.
A vibrant, expressionistic print of a person's head and upper torso with exaggerated features in bold yellow, orange, and red tones, with scribbled red lines on the face. The figure is wearing a dark green garment with yellow stripes. The artwork is numbered and signed at the bottom, indicating it's a limited edition.
A black and white sketch depicting a surreal scene with a figure wearing a hat, seemingly in motion or dancing, with arms outstretched on a branch or beam. Another figure appears bound or merged with the branch, while additional abstract shapes and lines suggest a chaotic environment. The artwork is expressive with dynamic strokes and marks.
A hand-drawn portrait of a person with visible pencil strokes in various colors, predominantly blue and yellow, creating an abstract effect. The subject's eyes are detailed and expressive, and there are lines and patterns that overlay the image, suggesting a sense of motion or energy. The drawing includes hints of a necklace and is signed and dated by the artist in the bottom right corner.
A close-up of a newspaper clipping with the headline "Brooklyn," reporting on a man arrested for choking his mother and lighting her hair on fire in their Brighton Beach home. The text is slightly faded and the paper is creased at the edges.
