About this artwork
This painting is part of an ongoing series capturing vintage mugshots. The reference photos that he is using are fascinating because they depict a snapshot in time of someone at a very discouraging point in their lives. He doesn't know the outcome of these people's lives nor would he share it if he did. He believes the mystery is what is most intriguing.
This painting was created on canvas board and then placed in black, wooden frame.

« My paintings are my attempt at leaving physical memories for myself and others by way of portraiture. »
At the age of 15, on a trip to the Art Institute of Chicago with his parents, Jonathan Mcafee was stopped in his tracks by Warhol's 'Mao,' and definitely marked the start of his artistic pursuits. Today, Mcafee is busy composing expressive portraits centred on the theme of memory.
