WOMAN 1 - Contemporary Realism / Female Portrait / Jeweled Headdress

2019

About the Item

Brooklyn-based artist Jacob Hicks creates one of a kind portraits inspired by history, humanism, beauty, and mythology. Hicks explores how the female portrait embodies archetypes of power and respect. In this series of works, Hicks references portraits from paintings made hundreds of years ago by Primitive Flemish and Italian Renaissance masters. He embellishes each subject, draping them in colorful crowns, decorative ribbons, and tassels, imbuing the earlier representation of a "sober women" with a wild new life. His art has been widely exhibited, most recently with Art Miami and the Wausau Museum of Contemporary Art and published in compendiums by Rizzoli Press and The Wild Magazine. He has taught for West Nottingham Academy, New York Art Studio, and Manhattan Youth.
