I am a painter who makes a body of work that show a person personality. I create portraits by researching the person I am painting and getting sources images that goes with my ideals. I position the person onto the canvas and used underpaintings to act as a guide for the final painting. Although, these paintings are representational to the image. By using different hues, textures, and shadows, I am able to reach your core and letting you go to a place that remind you of your loved ones. My body of works references a painter called Sedrick Huckaby, I’m appropriating his large scales and intense emotion that he captures in their eyes. The appreciation of my family and friends was a major motivation in my works because by painting them she can capture a moment in time that is so timeless. Furthermore, in my paintings gives the viewer a sense of love, happiness, sadness, angry and so much more. That I express in my artwork.
