Artwork Description

I enjoy distorting my characters to an almost cartoony degree. I then paint them in as realistic skin tones as I can. I enjoy the juxtaposition of a fun/silly image painted in a serious manner.

Pete Conroy is an English artist based in Echuca. He focuses his attention on portraits and distortion of the human face and figure. Using traditional techniques mixed with a modern style he paints humans with impossibly stretched facial features and limbs.
Where the shape and structure of his subjects are out of sync with reality he attempts to bring the characters back into the realistic realm with a mix of modern and traditional techniques of oil painting.
