The person's pose is relaxed, with one arm resting on a raised knee and the other supporting the body on the ground. The artwork has a dynamic and textured appearance, indicative of a quick, impasto painting style.

A minimalist black and white artwork featuring a small, abstract black ink blot in the upper left corner on a white background. The ink blot appears to have a rough texture and an irregular shape.

A colorful print depicting two figures against an abstract background with warm hues of red, yellow, and brown. The figure on the left is a silhouette in black, resembling a bull, while the figure on the right is a human form with a visible musculature, rendered in a mix of colors, looking towards the left.

The image has a raw, emotive quality, and there is a signature at the bottom right corner.
