Ben Rasche’s 11x14-inch acrylic on canvas board is a bold and evocative masterpiece that pulses with raw emotion and abstract intensity. The painting merges fragmented faces—each rendered in striking hues of teal, yellow, and orange—into a dynamic collision of expressions, with a prominent green eye and jagged teeth suggesting a narrative of inner conflict and resilience. Thick, textured brushstrokes and a vibrant interplay of colors create a visceral depth, drawing viewers into a world where identity and struggle intertwine. Signed and dated 2023, this work from the Canvas of Courage Project stands as a powerful testament to Rasche’s ability to transform personal challenges into art that resonates with unfiltered strength and spirit.
