"I mainly use the medium oil on board with gold and silver leaf which I feel adds movement and shifts with the intensity of light. I have a meticulous eye for detail. I like to infuse a harmony between the natural and conceptual to create works that are provocative and dramatic. I like to render my subjects to a timeless matter." - Gordon Harris (b.1977)
Irish contemporary painter, Gordon Harris, is regarded as one Ireland’s most promising figurative painters. Primarily using the medium of oil, Harris is best known for his meticulously detailed, richly coloured, and translucently layered large scale paintings.
His main objective with these paintings is to render the soul within. Harris studies his subjects with enormous intensity, giving each portrait a strong intimate closeness; seeking harmony between the natural and conceptual to create works that are provocative and dramatic.
