Oil on canvas

11 x 14

This example of my portraiture style is a nod to Vincent Van Gogh and Lucien Freud. I like to include visual hints about the subject's biography in my portraits. When I do commissions, I try to find out as much as possible about the subject to include biographical nuggets in the painting. This portrait was included in a juried show at the Lichtenstein Center for the Arts, Pittsfield, MA, in April 2023.
