About the Item

This abstract portrait by Ned Martin blends realistic and abstracted styles. Part of his Spirits Through Time series of female portraits, the woman's face is rendered realistically, while her neck and shoulders, and blue hair are abstracted, and fade out to blend with the textured, abstract black and turquoise background. Pops of lime green and bright yellow and red add contrast along the horizontal line between the deep deal and black background. The artist has signed the piece in the bottom right-hand corner. The panel has clean, painted grey sides, and is wired and ready to hang. Located in Brooklyn, Ned Martin is inspired by hectic city life. His work touches on the subjects of nature and community, which are drawn from his childhood memories of rural Pennsylvania and Northern Maryland. Martin’s work is a commentary on the global society, and the idea that everything is connected as one. After studying Fine Arts at Towson State University in Maryland, Martin continued his formal art training at the Schuler School of Fine Arts in Baltimore. Embracing his training and his meticulous process, Martin grinds his own paints. He has painted en plein air on the River Seine in Paris, Scotland, and Italy, all of which have shaped his artistic vision. Ned Martins ays of his work, “I have long believed artists are like mirrors. My job is to reflect that which others are missing while they go about their busy lives. I somehow wish my paintings were less biased, yet, my own emotions from life experiences are in every painting I create. While I still struggle with the idea, I must be completely honest that every painting is a self-portrait.” About Sorelle Gallery: Sorelle Gallery is a woman-owned fine art gallery and art advisory firm located in Westport, Connecticut.
