JARED Oil on Linen 60 cm w x 100 cm h $5,000 Artist’s Statement Portraiture for me has always been about the personal connection between the artist and sitter and because the sitter is my son, there is a lifetime of information. This painting honours the person he has become and strives to capture his essence at a particular happy and comfortable time in his life after quite a difficult period. |
