McGarren Flack
Focused, Oil Painting

2019

About the Item

Artist Comments
A classically rendered portrait of a young man, framed with engaging expressionist brushwork. "The model had stellar masculine features to be captured with paint," says artist McGarren Flack. "The subtle color changes in his skin tone were hard to capture, but the piece came together nicely."


About the Artist
Utah-based artist McGarren Flack captures everyday moments of human vulnerability through painterly realism. His career as a paramedic brings him face-to-face with people at their most helpless moments, which inspired him to contemplate the nature of being vulnerable. Whether sitting alone in a cafe or unknowingly dropping a possession on the street, the human condition is always subject to powerlessness. “It is important for me to share these scenes because I believe it will help the viewer connect to humanity,” says McGarren. “There is no escaping the feeling of vulnerability; it is blind to skin color, social status, and age.”
