Kick off your weekend with this striking piece by San Francisco–born painter #JoanBrown!

Brown is best known for her large-scale self-portraits, which combine bright, cartoonish drawing with her own personal lexicon of symbols. The Room, Part 1 is an introspective work depicting a figure studying a painting of Chinese Kazakhs on the Altai mountain range in western Mongolia.
