untitled, from the series Lizzie

The artist is known for his hyper-realist portraits of women, painted from photographs or video stills. Stylistically, the works oscillate between the aesthetics of contemporary fashion shots and the ethereal 19th-century representations of women, familiar especially from the works of the Pre- Raphaelites. The subject of the portrait is an icon of popular culture, the model and actress Elizabeth ‘Lizzie’ Jagger.
