Michael Banks 12x24 Acrylic on Board White Hair Lady WP6312

This acrylic painting by Alabama outsider artist Michael Banks features an elongated female portrait rendered in his distinctive geometric style. Set against a deep black background, the figure's pale face, piercing eyes, and vivid red lips create a dramatic visual contrast that immediately commands attention. Sharp angular forms and carved linear accents give the portrait a sculptural quality while maintaining a strong sense of elegance and mystery.

Banks reduces the human figure to essential shapes and expressive features, creating a contemporary portrait that feels both modern and timeless. The elongated neck, simplified forms, and direct gaze draw the viewer into a quiet psychological narrative. This work exemplifies Banks' ability to merge folk-art sensibilities with contemporary design and portraiture.

The piece is 12" wide and 24" long.
