True colors. Two words that defines twelve varying pieces,
where every stroke holds meaning, every dab and smudge is a part of me, part of
the series. True colors is the study of human qualities, the curve of the lips,
every last exquisite feature beautifully captured in twelve one of a kind
paintings. The supreme focus being the inner self. Using colors society
associates with emotions, I composed intertwined personalities. Focused on
showing people as they are and not as they seem.
My concentration demonstrates my idea or theme by formation
and situation of the individual pieces branded as a whole, a family. The main
theme being personality rooted it explores my visualization on society’s
obsession on appearance. First impressions are purely image structured. The
first impression my artwork should make is who that individual is, soul and
mentality. Each has respectively reached the desired status. Each has its own
personality, feeling and persona. Portrait seven has a loosely blitz painted
background that is swallowing the subject, the personality is forceful, every
last inch secretes who she is. Portrait five has a thick, fused background that
represents the continuous flow of his personality. Portrait twelve’s subtle but
vivid background prods the gravity of the foreground, the shine of the leather,
diverse shades of grey along the cheek bones and up turned corners of the lips.
The relaxed background symbolizes his undefined and rounded personality. Every
picture has a thousand words but, a painting has more than words, it has soul,
personality and truth which live in each brush stroke, inside the thick
pigment; the core. My concentration without a doubt demonstrates my honest
belief in beauty within. I only hope my series gives off my passion and
personality as well as the subject’s true selves.
