'Woman in an audience' Painting

Portrait of a woman from a television show audience. By using the pause button, fleeting, temporal images that only happen momentarily can be captured and responded to. This particular portrait was taken from a tiny glimpse of this woman- she only appeared on the screen for one to two seconds. O'Keeffe has utilised what he describes as an unsophisticated use of an airbrush meaning that the elements of drawing which are unique to the airbrush are focused on giving the image a floating texture- its not clear whether the image hovers just above the surface of the paper or somewhere just beneath it. Painted in 2016 as part of a series looking at uncontrived, 'natural' human behaviour.
