Expressionist Figural Oil Painting by Lindman
This is a vibrant expressionist oil or acrylic painting on what appears to be a square panel or canvas board. The composition features two main stylized figures: a woman in a short green dress with blue stockings and red garters, and a man in a blue military or tuxedo-style jacket with a top hat. Both figures are holding lit cigarettes, with white smoke trails swirling upward. A small brown dog with white spots sits between them. The style is characterized by bold, saturated colors (pinks, blues, and yellows), heavy outlines, and a flattened perspective reminiscent of Neo-Expressionism or Fauvism. The woman is shown in front of a vanity with a mirror, reflecting her image. Notable signatures are visible in the lower-left corner, appearing to read 'Lindman'. The paint application is thick with visible brushstrokes and impasto techniques. The overall condition shows a slight scuff on the top edge and some minor surface debris, but the pigments remain very bright. The style suggests a late 20th-century origins, likely between 1970 and 1990. The whimsical yet edgy subject matter, combined with the confident use of color, indicates a high level of artistic intent and professional craftsmanship.
