Mixed Media Abstract Portait by Edna Hibel

This is an original mixed media artwork, likely lithography with hand-applied pigments or a watercolor wash, attributed to the renowned American artist Edna Hibel. The piece features two stylized, doll-like faces nestled amidst vibrant floral and organic forms, a hallmark of Hibel’s sentimental and maternal themes. The color palette is dominated by lush shades of spring green, accented by soft yellow, peach, and pink floral blossoms. The construction involved fluid, gestural brushwork and expressive black outlines that define the figures. It is housed in a contemporary gold-toned wooden frame with a double-layered off-white mat. A visible signature is located in the lower left corner of the art paper. The artwork appears to be in good condition, protected by glass, with a possible slight age-related patina to the paper. The style is mid-to-late 20th-century impressionistic expressionism, characterized by its ethereal and tender quality. The craftsmanship reflects Hibel's unique technique of layering media to create depth and luminosity, making it a highly recognizable piece for collectors of her work.
