Pink ladies
Oil painting of a pale woman with pink irises and a short, black, bob hair do. The background is also pink. She wears deep red lipstick and a simple, dark blue top. She is in 3/4 view and her eyes are focused somewhere off canvas. The cropping of the composition is close. An oil painting of a young woman, head and shoulders. The colors are saturated with greens and reds in the flesh tones. Her hair is long and bright, orange-red. The view is head on, but her teal eyes focus up and to the left of frame. She wears a yellow tank top and patches of pink background show in the upper corners behind her head. The brush strokes are loose and fluid.

His obsession with death took its toll.
A photo of an oil painting on canvas with small, dimensional skulls protruding around the canvas's sides. The painting depicts a woman in a black dress with her hands at her face in a grieved expression while a skeletal figure sits at a white table behind her.
