A painting / drawing with an illustrated feel, borrowing and remixing aesthetics of hannah barbera cartoons along with playful, childlike doodles that fill the negative space. A face is abstracted in a kind of crude Cubist way, along with a 3D extrusion that resembles a dada-puzzle piece.
Graphic designers might take interest in this interplay of irony, popular imagery, illustration, markmaking, and abstraction. The composition has a dominant urgency, similar to poster design.
