About The Artwork
This painting was based on an extreme crop of a drawing I made of a live model during an art class. The crossed arms of the gesture he was using signified resistance to me, so I focused on that. I was painting in greens at the time, and I felt that added an intensity that fit the pose. I also added some realism to the musculature of the arms and shoulders to emphasize the beauty of the arms. The slightly open mouth was fascinating to me, because it seemed as if he were about to speak. This painting is subtly and simply framed, slightly recessed in a black wood frame. It is ready to hang with a wire mounted on the back.

United States
I enjoy painting people and scenes in a universal way that captures common experience. I do this by combining emotional and experiential contexts through color, texture, and figurative elements. I try to convey joy, tension, confusion, thoughtfulness, loneliness, or tranquility through quiet scenes I see or by depicting meaningful moments I or my children have experienced. I paint primarily from life, my own original photographs, or imagination, so my work usually starts with realism but can venture into abstraction. Imagination and abstraction from the figurative often evolve as I am actually painting and like what I see happening in passages of paint and then go with it, continuing with color and expressionistic experimentation on the canvas simply because I think it is beautiful.
