Chuck Close

He painting style is called photorealism. He use images and photograph, he used ink and a grid technique to enlarge his work that he made. The size of his work the self-portrait is 102 x 84. The way that he made this piece the self-portrait is using a gridded block directly on to the canvas. Right now the piece is in New York.

The piece is made in 1997, I don’t know where it is made and the person that made this piece is chuck close. This piece is a portrait. It show that chuck close like to use block of squares in his work.

The work is a self-portrait and it show it is a self-portrait the mood in the piece show that he does not look happy about what he is doing. The way I feel about the piece is that he is feeling down about what he is doing. The texture looks like it is not smooth.
