Mitch

A painting I finished last year. 84"x48", oil on canvas. The figure is my friend and former professor, Mitch.


 In this painting, Mitch is standing in the doorway to his office. I had been wanting to paint a life size figure, but the figure ended up being almost an afterthought. I was drawn to this view of his office space, particularly the jumble of objects and the postcards on the wall (all of which have aged faded to some version of the same cerulean tone).
