Andrew Radcliffe, September, watercolor on arches paper, 2016.

Andrew Radcliffe's work comprises oil paintings, watercolors, and ink drawings.

This piece, titled September 15, 2016, is a watercolor on arches paper set into a custom walnut frame. 

His most recent paintings result from several unusual processes in which the essential virtues of figuration and abstraction intertwine. In these watercolors, human vulnerability is expressed through the body's carefully rendered floating and falling poses, of which the artist used himself as the source model in a series of video stills. This piece shows the human figure falling or rising into new levels of color, vibrancy, and joy.
