Abstract Mixed Media Drawing on Paper

This artwork is a contemporary abstract mixed media piece executed on a light-colored paper substrate, likely heavy-waight cotton rag based on the texture. The composition features a central rectangular field of earth-toned washes in tan and peach, framed by energetic, gestural charcoal or graphite linework. A prominent circular motif is visible at the top, accompanied by aggressive black scribbles and a saturated red block of color on the lower right side. The piece utilizes various mediums including what appears to be pastel, ink, and graphite. Notable markings include 'SEPT' inscribed in the lower-left corner and a series of numeric or cryptic notations like '1102' along the bottom edge, suggesting a diaristic or process-oriented approach. A small, stylized signature is present at the bottom right. The condition appears stable, though the lighting of the photograph makes a full assessment difficult; there is visible rippling of the paper, common in moisture-heavy mixed media work. The style is reminiscent of neo-expressionism or contemporary gestural abstraction from the late 20th to early 21st century. The craftsmanship is characterized by intentional raw mark-making and a sophisticated layering of translucent and opaque materials.
