His Methods

He begins each new work with an extreme close-up, usually of a face, taped to a board. The photograph is then squared so it can be enlarged and transferred by hand to canvas. He has painted in thousands of tiny airbrush bursts, thumbprints, or looping multi-color brushstrokes. The enormity of the completed painting magnifies each realistic detail of the subject's appearance, including wrinkles and freckles.
