BeHogan : Brian Hogan

Two new under paintings, approx. 3 1/2x 3’. Using a new substrate of very dense industrial cardboard which has zero absorption. It’s much like painting on laminate but softer.
These 2 pieces continue my previous isolated island landscape paintings which are compositionally based on female genitalia.
…I’ll have to go into explaining that more in depth in future posts, for now enjoy the process.

Enamel and wood stain on Masonite with various clear coats. From the detail you can see the differences of finish and lines cut into the surface.

This is a large version of the study I was talking about earlier, the woman observed walking up the subway stairs and the view she presented of her underwear clad crotch.

On the larger scale that sense of land forms starts to take hold. It becomes this image that engulfs you as you stand in front. Mountains, a crevasse between the sides sloping upward, looking from a distance over a ledge. Similarly to the way you might observe the subject. The subtlety and forms are what draws the content together; and the scale that pulls the viewer into that space. 

Some more Drawings that caught my attention.
