Hibiscus crown - Naïve Art by YLR

A black silhouette head is drawn with a single silver line — closed lashes, a looping nose, a full red mouth — and above it a yellow flower with a beaded green centre and a deep red hibiscus open like a crown. The ground is bare cream cloth scattered with small scribbled circles in pink, purple, green, orange and blue, and the shoulders below carry the same pattern.

Acrylic on cotton with silver pigment for the linework, in the naïve and folk tradition. Yahaira Lidia Reyes Jimenez paints as Naïve Art by YLR, a self-taught artist drawing on her Dominican and Afro-Caribbean heritage. Available as a poster or fine art canvas print in multiple sizes.
