I first looked at
Nick Lepard when I was doing a-levels, the style in which he paints still
inspires me, as it is so textured. He uses the paint to create strokes and
marks in his portraits which shape the face and also makes the painting very
expressive. He manages the lose look while still keeping the detail and
expression in the face, and that is what inspires me the most.
Even though this
painting is more tidy, the lines in the face create the shape and expression of
the man. The hints of blue and grey, show a coldness and the tone is very dull.
He is a great artist to look at for my paint project.
