About this artwork
Contemporary portraits in the 'Un-Portrait' series reduce the painting process down to the bare essentials.
Every stroke has intention and weight. The paint has as much a say in the work as the Painter's eye. In this way, compared to traditional approaches, something vital and raw, and perhaps closer to true life is created.

« My goals in art-making are exploring the nature of who I am, and my relationship to the world. »
At age nine, American painter and sculptor David Sheldon was hospital bound after a major operation and was given his first oil-painting kit- he hasn't stopped making art since. The theme of Sheldon's sculpture work revolves around the question, "Who am I, and what is my relationship to the Infinite?" Regarding his paintings, Sheldon works intuitively, and likes to constantly question his methods. Sheldon't futuristic steel sculptures and abstract expressionist oil paintings are fluid, bright, and intriguing.
