The Tyninghame Faces are cross continental.
This guest room has had two iterations of Tsila & Seek artworks, previously a helichrysum garland hung over the bed, but has since been moved to the curtain rod out of frame. Of the Tyninghame Faces, this is the only one that came from a face doodle.
The expression is trying to capture someone who is sad but could also be seen as curious or questioning. Of the faces, this one is by far the most expressive, and the read on the expression changes with the light, at times the light does portray a sadness, and other times, the shadow beneath his arched eyebrow highlights the expression of someone questioning, assessing, considering the benefits of an idea.
The paint colour is Little Greene’s Ashes of Roses.
