artist 9: elizabeth peyton
Kirsty at the Getty Center , 2018 Thursday - Tony, 2000 Chloe , 2000 Evan With the Flu , 1997 Somebody in New York Loves Me (Craig) , 1998 Elizabeth Peyton is primarily a painter whose subject matter focuses on friends, celebrities, and people from history. I love her watery brushstrokes and her color palettes she chooses to work within. I also love how personal some of these feel--for example "Evan with the Flu" in particular has a closeness and intimacy to it that I love. In some of my figurative art I hope to be able to create a similar feeling of closeness. To see more of her art, visit this website .
