About this artwork
This painting is exemplary of two important aspects of the way I presently approach "my trade" so to speak. First, I try to incorporate the figure into an abstract setting without distorting the figure to any great degree. Second, I use glue as an underpainting where I believe it is necessary, that is, I proceed according to my Gloil process in order to give the painting depth and spontaneity.
In addition to the above, I throw in the fact that I'm… a Greek Mythology junkie. So, this is Medea who was not a very nice person. When Jason (as in Jason and the Argonauts) leaves her "at the alter" and marries another, Medea magically makes a wedding dress for Jason's bride that practically burns her alive. But that's not the worse! Check out the story and enjoy the painting.

Credentials
- Works on commission
Shear, painter and sculptor, acquired his mastery from renowned maestros including Jean Packard and Valentin Okorokov. Employing expressive color, shapes, and paint application, his works vary from lifelike portraiture to abstract figure painting, enhanced by his unique 'Gloil' process - fusion of traditional techniques with glutinous medium. Shear's artworks make a potent emotional connection, aimed to seize the viewer's heart.
