Expressive brushstrokes convey the energy and emotion of the moment, creating a sense of spontaneity and directness. The figure’s face is only gently outlined, with a stronger emphasis on one eye directed towards the viewer, which gives the drawing psychological depth and establishes contact with the audience. The remaining facial features are merely a suggestion, leaving room for interpretation. “What a Look” is a study of the human form that goes beyond a simple reproduction of reality. It is rather an emotional record of a moment, captured using dynamic line and chiaroscuro. This artwork is characterized by its austerity and power of expression, typical of many of Jolanta Jeklin’s nudes. It is a proposition for lovers of drawing and the nude who appreciate works with a strong emotional message and dynamic form.
What a Look, acrylic on paper, 100 x 70 cm, 2015
“What a Look” is a dynamic and expressive nude by Jolanda Jeklin, executed in acrylic on paper with dimensions of 100 x 70 cm. The drawing depicts a seated female figure, captured in a free, almost sketch-like form. With her characteristic energy and minimalist approach, the artist creates a study of the human body, focusing on line, movement, and emotional expression. The composition of the drawing is simple, with the centrally placed figure drawing the viewer’s eye. Dark, decisive strokes of acrylic define the contours of the body, creating a dynamic and vibrant form. The lines are bold and fluid, conveying the natural curves and proportions of the silhouette. In places, the paint is blurred, creating subtle shading and modeling the three-dimensionality of the figure. The monochromatic palette of browns and blacks, with lighter accents, lends the drawing a raw and intimate character. The absence of unnecessary details directs attention to the essence of the representation – the naked body in its natural pose.
