This female portrait is part of an upcoming series to delve into dramatic lighting effects and how it creates a sense of poise and confidence.

Beginning with a black canvas, the behaviour of light becomes both the central focus of the process and the ultimate goal of the finished piece.

Ger Hughes is originally from Wicklow, Ireland and has lived in Dublin for 15 years.

As a child he used to draw endlessly, improving little by little over his formative years. Having sought out a profession in digital design, he found himself doing traditional drawing less and less. After doing some life drawing and falling in love with charcoal, he craved a little more. 5 years ago he picked up a paint brush and hasn’t looked back since.

He is passionate about rich, vibrant colour and lighting, and loves to challenge himself with different styles, techniques and a wide range of subjects.

All paintings are oil on canvas at the moment, although some future experimenting with other materials seems highly likely.
