About this artwork
This is a contemporary acrylic portrait of a young man that the artist met in his studio. Working on a large scale using palette knives, spatulas and scraping tools he aims to capture a glimpse into the soul of his subject.
The colour palette is minimalist, using tints and shades of pthalo and Prussian blues. The background is a clean white brought alive by a gesso texture. This painting will suit any modern decor.

« I am inspired by beauty and the positive stories behind people's lives. My portraits strive to express the emotions behind people's eyes rather than creating a realistic rendering of the person. »
Anthony de Klerk is inspired by the people that he meets and interacts with, particularly African youths who have the ability to rise above challenging circumstances and conditions. The award-winning South African painter's first love was wildlife art, which he now finds himself returning to. In his creative process, De Klerk uses acrylic paints and gesso with palette knives and various scraping tools. In his larger portraits and nudes, he works with oils in a more traditional manner.
