Q&A with Nicole Finger #photorealism #contemporaryrealism #oilpainting
“I’m constantly attracted to the connection between the viewer and subject; it’s this interaction with the image that I find most interesting and open to interpretation.”
Finger is primarily recognized for her bold, hyperrealistic, close-cropped and oversized oil paintings. Evoking an emotional response without imposing any particular statement is her goal. Pursuing a high level of realistic detail while not sacrificing the rich, textural quality of the paint is a balance in which she strives.
