Alice Neel, 1900-1984, was an American painter who mainly worked on portraits of her friends, family, lovers, and even strangers. She was an expressionistic painter, and her work’s focus shifted when she lost her baby after moving to New York from Cuba with her husband. Her work then focused on motherhood, loss, and anxiety. You can now see a wonderful collection of her work at the Philbrook Museum for a limited time only!
