About the Item
Original Painting by Jacob Hicks
Jacob Hicks (b. 1985, Midland, TX) completed his BFA in 2010 at Southern Methodist University and his MFA in 2012 at the New York Academy of Art. He has received the W. Paul Beckwith Emerging Artist Grant, the Eric Fischl '66 Artist-in-Residence Teaching Grant, and the Mary Vernon Painting Prize, and has participated in multiple international artist residency programs.
Hicks' current works derive from his series of female icons called 100 Women, started in 2016. These paintings serve as a form of resistance to misogyny and racism. He takes the Northern and Italian Renaissance, Spanish Baroque, and English styles and recontextualizes them with modern and diverse subjects. He explains, "My work has always addressed these things: history, humanism, beauty, archetype, mythology, and the subconscious-the individual's personal link to our collective mythos. Right now, I am focusing on the female as a way to embody these interests."
The artist is currently based in Brooklyn, NY.

Kelsey Seated, Arm on Mac - Original Oil Painting, Study of a Dancer
By Andrew S. Conklin
Located in Chicago, IL
A study for a series of larger paintings based on motion capture studios, this painting combines classic technique with modern sensibility. Here the seated model leans against an antiquated iMac. Upon closer examination, the preparatory sketch lines are visible on the model's feet and her forearm. Unfinished works were first seen during the Renaissance with Masters such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Donatello. It became fashionable to leave works incomplete, so much so, that it became an aesthetic term 'non-finito'.

Motion Capture Paintings, Chicago
My recent painting series describes the reality of motion capture environments by showing the interplay between female athletes and male technicians. These paintings are meant to explore conventions of female representation in Western figurative art and to contrast this past practice with the contemporary imagery of that subject via computer-based image technology.
This project was instigated by a number of things: first, by my abiding interest in depicting the human form in paint, as I find its versatility in a design, its invitation to empathy, and its difficulty, to be something worth attempting to depict with success. In addition, my curiosity regarding the new ways to depict the form using electronic technology seem to challenge to the traditional methods I rely upon, and I wanted to comment on the similarities and differences between the studios of the painters and the technicians.
In this way, I aim to continue my investigation into what I see as the contrasting quality of human nature, and symbolically represent opposites such as mind and body, analog and digital, realism and idealism, terrestrial and the transcendent.
Andrew S. Conklin is a figurative painter. He holds an MFA from the Academy of Art University, and studied painting at the National Academy of Design in New York City with Harvey Dinnerstein...
