FACES
This series is tied strongly to an earlier series of paintings and drawings by Shawn Skeir. The artist has developed his style of depicting faces and human bodies to a higher degree of both skill and originality. In earlier pieces such as ‘King and Queen’ (from ‘94), Skeir’s appropriation of Cubism and African folk-art are still very apparent, whereas the artist has created more recent works that assert his artistic vision.
