Acrylic on wood
Signed on the front.
Inspired by the words of Joaquin's Oscars speech (please watch if you haven't already) I wanted to capture the rawness and sheer emotion. With particular focus on his eyes I've also added the texture of spray paint hinting to the grit/layers we all carry. Heading away from the traditional polished portrait. This is a custom timber box with mounting on the back ready to hang.
