Stephen Henriques
Ghost of a Chance / oil on canvas musically inspired lush color

2020

About the Item

'Ghost of a Chance' a clear and vibrant oil on canvas painting in green, pink, blue, sand. Henriques' canvases offer a place to rest your eyes and mind and are a place where color reigns. Henriques' paintings bridge contemporary figuration with still life and abstraction, and convey rhythm and movement through the gestural lines of nature and ideas. The artist is influenced by Bonnard and Vuillard, and inspired by music — specifically Western jazz — and the natural vibrancy of South American culture, where he lived and worked for many years, the artist says his works are best experienced slowly, like good music, food, or dancing. His joyful paintings, created with brilliant color also a toast to life. The American Expressionist oil on canvas painting, 'Ghost of a Chance' is 55 1/4 x 55 3/4 inches - painted in 2020. A contemporary work of art that joyfully bridges traditional representation with abstraction.
