A large, vertically oriented portrait painting is displayed outdoors in Lokoja, Nigeria, resting on an unpaved, light brown ground surface. The painting depicts the head and upper torso of an African woman in an expressionistic style, characterized by textured brushstrokes and a vibrant color palette. Her skin is rendered primarily in deep blues and purples with strong contrasting highlights. She has a reddish-brown, textured afro hairstyle, partially covered by a thin white headband. Her eyes are large, dark brown with prominent white highlights and distinct eyelashes. Her nose features reddish-brown highlights, and abstract pink/purple and white markings are visible on her nose and right cheek. She wears a multi-segment black dangle earring on her visible left ear and two strands of reddish-orange, rectangular beaded necklaces, one with a central, larger horizontal barrel bead. A small cluster of white and pink flowers is depicted on her lower-left shoulder. The painting's background transitions from purple at the top-left to orange and yellow on the mid-left, with darker tones dominating the right and bottom sections. The artist's signature, "Femiola," is visible in the lower-left corner of the canvas. To the left of the painting, a partial blue plastic chair is visible, along with a blurred dark figure and a section of light-colored tiled flooring. The background beyond the painting reveals a light-colored building with a corrugated metal roof and a dark metal fence or gate under an overcast sky. The scene suggests an outdoor art display or a roadside gallery entrance within the city.
