‘Clarity’

20″ x 16″

This piece takes influence from so many famous simple figure portraits, and focuses on feeling presented by color theory and form.  Gordon is primarily a landscape painter when not creating expressive abstracts, and ‘Clarity’ is part of a beginning development in Gordon’s expression of the living form.

” Ive always felt that the painter must have a vivid connection to the subject… almost as picasso understood his art well enough to apply it to defining that connection on canvas… and that had always been daunting to me..”    -G. Gordon
