Selection advice
A canvas dedicated to portraits creates a strong presence on a large wall, while a more focused subject easily fits in an office or a quiet room. References such as French painting, 19th century, Realism, Le desespere and portraits guide color, light and material, with visual fidelity centered on the artist's pictorial vocabulary.
Narrative compositions gain readability in large formats; portraits or isolated figures breathe better in medium formats; landscapes or luminous scenes benefit from sufficient distance. Oil on canvas regains the depth, transitions and material that the printed image reproduces less well.
