LA artist Kris Lewis paints the most exquisite portraits I've seen in a long time. His ability to utlise subtle gestures to capture a true sense of emotion is remarkable and with a quick glance you know exactly what the subject is thinking. Technically flawless, his paintings are beautiful and his troubled subjects, mesmerizing.

“As I begin a painting the subject physically, emotionally and spiritually reveals itself to me.  Each brushstroke speaks to the subsequent stroke, carrying out a dialogue, linking my subject and me as if we were meeting for the first time. I find this uncertainty exciting and embrace the indecisive nature of my work.” - Kris Lewis

The girl in the one with the flower and the pug looks like she has allergies to pollen and dog hair. But yes, very powerful.

Cool pictures, a bit surreal and stuff. But why does the artist have to ruin it with this high-brow crapola: “As I begin a painting the subject physically, emotionally and spiritually reveals itself to me. Each brushstroke speaks to the subsequent stroke, carrying out a dialogue, linking my subject and me as if we were meeting for the first time. I find this uncertainty exciting and embrace the indecisive nature of my work.”

When you paint like that, you can pretty much say whatever you want.
