Portraits
With these portraits I aim at creating a diverse, culturally-charged picture of an urban environment, tailored by my personal experiences and encounters living in San Francisco. Each painting features a close-up view of this bigger urban picture by placing individuals in a setting of their own, adding a personal touch and creating urban detail. Subjects and backgrounds in each painting are meant to closely identify, as well as work together as a harmonic whole grouping of paintings. I hope through this series to share my exuberant feelings on this complex structured landscape which I find rich in content for both inspiration and learning.
