?Portrait of Hooded Woman? is one of Cohn?s original watercolors and is a portrait painting that invites the viewers to feel warmth and depth among a seemingly simple watercolor. Cohn employed the wet-on-wet technique to create this large amorphous composition. To work wet-on-wet the artist saturates the paper with water and applies the pigment to the wet surface allowing it to bleed into all other wet areas freely, mixing colors and creating interesting textures as in ?Portrait of Hooded Woman.? The artist?s use of black and white brings the figure in portrait to the forefront of the piece. This wonderfully fluid composition is complimented perfectly by the black with black core bottom mat and creamy top mat that it is mounted above. The painting is capped off by a stunning and sleek black wood frame, giving it a sophisticated and modern presentation and bringing the total measurements to 20.5?x 26.5?. The unique matting and framing presentation of this piece was individually selected and created by Le Chateau?s renowned master framer, Jeanette Shoenrock, and bears her signature on the back. It is truly a marvelous, affordably priced piece by a nationally renowned artist that would be a unique and eye-catching addition to any collection of fine art.
