About this artwork
In this piece, I poured my soul into capturing the juxtaposition of mirth and melancholy. Through the textured strokes of oil and vibrant oil pastels, the harlequin's visage emerges—a blend of fine art and raw, expressionist emotion. It explores the façade of joy against the complexity of human sentiment. This painting is a vessel of profound narrative energy, sure to resonate and bring a powerful, provocative presence to any space.

« 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.
