Description
‘The Plaid Shirt’ – Sophia Persephone – Contemporary Oil Painting
Contemporary portrait, painted in oils on archival quality linen.
I met the subject of this painting at a boat party many years ago and was struck by his incredible bone structure and patterned shirt (as I love to paint textiles).
He kindly let me take a photo as a portrait reference, although I didn’t get around to painting from it until 2024, as a practice piece for my appearance on Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year 2024.
Stupidly, I didn’t make a note of his name or contact details! So I’ve never been able to track him down.
This is another example of an experimentation with line (as with ‘The Blue Shirt‘ and ‘The Nose Ring‘)
I also felt a strong influence of Vincent Van Gogh while I was making this work.
60x50cm, sold unframed.
