Abstract Face Print with Red Cross and Grinning Mouth

This striking abstract print features a stylized face with a prominent red cross motif at its center, suggesting a complex or perhaps unsettling expression. The eyes are rendered with a rough, circular texture, and a wide, toothy grin dominates the lower portion of the face, creating a sense of unease or dark humor. The artwork utilizes bold black ink contrasted with vibrant red and hints of olive green, applied with a woodcut or linocut technique that emphasizes texture and raw energy. The overall composition is graphic and impactful, with a rough, handmade quality evident in the uneven edges and visible brushstrokes. This piece, signed by K. Marshall in '87, evokes a powerful emotional response, inviting viewers to interpret its symbolic meaning and visceral aesthetic.
