Zac - print of oil painting by Madison Mitchell

ARTIST STATEMENT: I was drawn to the creation of a sense of visceral emotion from subject, composition and object and how they interact with each other. I wanted to explore composition and emotion in relationship to someone I know particular well to see how that understanding of personality or "aura"; would translate to the canvas, this is what drove my creation of my first large scale composition entitled "Zac".
