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.

"HRH Princess Julia" - Hyperrealist Portrait Painting by Georgina Clapham
Located in West Hollywood, CA
This small vertical 31 inch high by 23.5 inch wide original oil painting on canvas is wired and ready to hang. The detail in this artwork is astounding. From the gaze and makeup details around the eyes to the the ornate jewelry, Princess Julia is absolutely sublime. The sides of the artwork are not painted and it does not require framing. It is signed and titled by the artist on the back of the artwork British painter Georgina Clapham conspicuously engages with story telling and theatricality, drawing together Renaissance portraiture, Greek Mythology, folklore, mysticism, animals, nature, the artificial, high fashion, subculture, gender, identity and sexuality, in her meticulous life size figurative paintings. Through the traditional media of oil paint on linen and intaglio printmaking, she creates her own contemporary mythologies. Staging her paintings using people in her everyday life, she infuses these timeless narratives with the intimacy and tangibility of her friendships and personal relationships drawing out their psychology and sexuality; as such, the works become as much a depiction of her own imagined narrative as of the individuals’ personality. She has previously attended City and Guilds of London Art School, 2013 and The Glasgow School of Art, 2014-16, where her work was purchased into the archive. In 2015 she was awarded The Richard Ford...
