About the Item

Spicy Rich Boi INFO: I pretty much paint my life, where I travel and the people I meet. The figure being my greatest muse, I cannot resist painting someone that really piques my interest. The West TX town of Marfa has alot of wonderful people, sometimes eccentric, always interesting , with great stories, and this person was one of those. Beautiful, intriguing and just so many aspects to be challenged by in a painting, the skin tones, the gesture, etc. I find the end result of the painting, has offered more stories, more curiosity about who is this person? Portraiture is interesting like that, where you can imagine what is this person about, and how do they relate to me the viewer. As the artist, it continues to interest me, what is being said with the image, how it is remembered and how it continues to live after its creation. Artist Statement I believe there are reasons unknown as to why we make art, for me I want to believe in a higher power, a place to elevate the human experience. My own experience when painting is like what I imagine to be a fugue, a loss of present state and a place of ecstasy. Moreso, it is braided with apprehension, doubt, and the battle begins, for the image to be absent of this, to make it so, it must start out noble with its own beginning. The work must strive for beauty. Beauty is not just for the eye, it is for the soul. But the human experience is painful, so making beauty with doubt will forever compete for its respective side, leaving the viewer to make the story and choose the outcome, a favorable art experience in my opinion.

Sacred Writings Religious and Mythological Narratives Florence Academy Oil
Located in Houston, TX
Samuel S.Hoskins Statement on Sacred Writing : I sought to delve into the concept of sacred texts, encompassing both religious and mythological narratives. Unlike conventional books, these sacred texts are dynamic, evolving throughout an individual's lifetime and human history. Reading such a text in childhood carries distinct significance compared to revisiting it in later stages of life. To symbolize our transformative journey, I depicted a path leading into the forest, illustrating how our life experiences influence our connection with these profound literary works.

White Roses Oil Florence Academy Oil The Enchanting Fragrance of Roses
Located in Houston, TX
Samuel S.Hoskins Statement on White Roses: "White Roses" is an endeavor to evoke the enchanting fragrance of roses. One of the most delightful aspects of living in Florence, Italy, is cycling through the outskirts of the city in spring after a refreshing rain shower. The rain seems to awaken the scents of various flora. I utilized Viridian Green and Cerulean Blue to capture the cool contrast that rain imparts to the flowers, seeking to encapsulate the sensory experience of those post-rain, blossoming moments.
