Denise Pollack

Paintings

Art is everywhere, just waiting to be confined to a rectangle and presented on a page.  My job as an artist, is to recognize a painting before it exists.  

I paint contemporary realistic oil paintings.  I am inspired by unusual subjects and juxtapositions.  I find beauty in ordinary people who are not typically the subject of a portrait.  My paintings tell a story–a moment in time, friendship, solitude, resilience, longing, inspiration–a small slice of reality.  

My hope is that my art conveys a sense of mystery about the life of the subject, causing one to contemplate what he or she was thinking in that moment.  

When painting portraits, I work from photographs.  I prefer to have numerous shots from a variety of angles.  I welcome nontraditional as well as traditional subjects.  

I currently sell my work privately.  If you are interested in purchasing an original painting, please contact me via email.  [email protected]
