My Spring Show submission is about the way in which I paint people. Each tronie is an exploration of the subject's current physical and emotional state. Simultaneously, each one is an exploration of planes, color, geometry and design. These are oil paintings on aluminium. They are an interaction of fluid paint on rigid surfaces, an attempt to create images of beauty whilst maintaining a sense of unashamed honesty with regard to depicting the human face. It is my honor to share them with you.
