Mixed Media Collage Art Piece

This appears to be an abstract or surreal mixed media collage artwork, unframed. The piece is characterized by a dark green, mottled background with elements of what appears to be paint, possibly acrylic or watercolor, combined with paper collage. The central focus is a stylized, somewhat grotesque face with prominent blue eyes, a significant reddish-brown nose area, and a wavy mouth. This face is constructed from various textured papers, some dark brown and possibly patterned or spattered with lighter colors. A small, light-colored object resembling a hat with a brim is situated on top of the head. To the viewer's left, a segment of paper depicts a beach scene with a lounge chair and an umbrella, suggesting an outdoor or leisure theme. To the right, another paper segment looks like text or patterned paper. The overall composition is organic and somewhat chaotic, with splashes and drips of paint adding to the texture. There are discernible elements such as a sun-like motif in the upper left, abstract cloud or bird shapes, and what might be interpreted as mountains or hills in the upper right. The color palette is earthy and subdued, dominated by greens, browns, and blues, with occasional brighter accents like the blue eyes and touches of yellow/red. The construction involves layering various materials, suggesting a handmade, experimental approach to art. Visible condition issues include some possible slight warping or creasing of the paper, consistent with mixed media techniques. There are no obvious maker's marks or signatures visible from the image. The style suggests a contemporary or modern art aesthetic, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century. The craftsmanship is expressive and focuses on texture and emotive quality rather than precise rendering.
