A striking black and white portrait composition featuring bold geometric patterns painted across the subject. A dramatic diagonal black stripe cuts across the image from upper right to lower left, creating a stark contrast against the white areas. The eyes are particularly striking, appearing to pierce through the black paint with intense clarity. The composition is minimalist, using only black and white tones against a gray background, with clean, sharp edges between the contrasting areas. The title "Stripped No. 1" plays on both the literal striped pattern and perhaps a metaphorical stripping away to essential elements. The subject's features are partially obscured by the abstract pattern, creating an interplay between revealing and concealing.
