A three-quarter portrait of a woman dressed in black with a casual hairstyle. Her expression is serious, and the tentative brushstrokes, capturing the fleeting moment of the pose, are evident on her face.
Delhomme's work is characterized by direct observation of the subject. It is not mediated by photography and is executed in single painting sessions. In this way, he captures the here and now. The reflective and solitary experience of painting reality has slowly imposed its rhythm and relentlessness on the social commentary of style and culture.
