“The Meandering Pause”
I spotted this gentleman at a street fair, where he was stopped in the midst of the flurry of people and activity. His quiet and lingering pose begat the inspiration for this painting. I kept the painting largely in mid-tones, with a greater emphasis and contrast on how the light and shadows animated his face, which readily aroused my curiosity about the man’s thoughts. This is what stirs me to paint people.

I love this one!
Thanks – I like it too.
This piece turned out so beautifully Terry. I love the colors you decide to push. Your comment about being curious as to his thoughts is such a neat premise for your pieces.
Thanks, Sherry. I think it’s the emotional component, how something affects us, that always stirs us to create a painting and try to express that.
