SMILE IS FREE

This painting captures Jack Nicholson’s iconic expression in the scene from The Shining when he breaks down the door. His face, full of contained madness and a sinister smile, stands out against a grainy background that adds tension and rawness to the work. Above, the phrase SMILE IS FREE in clear letters contrasts with the disturbing atmosphere, underscoring the irony of the moment. Without collage elements, the strength of the painting lies in that intense gaze and terrifying smile that have been etched in popular culture.
