White and umber define a sitted nude female figure. Simplified contours enhance her shape, while gentle brushwork gives softness to her form. The background’s textured strokes draw focus to her body.
About the Artist
Utah-based artist McGarren Flack captures everyday moments of human vulnerability through painterly realism. His career as a paramedic brings him face-to-face with people at their most helpless moments, which inspired him to contemplate the nature of being vulnerable. Whether sitting alone in a cafe or unknowingly dropping a possession on the street, the human condition is always subject to powerlessness. “It is important for me to share these scenes because I believe it will help the viewer connect to humanity,†says McGarren. “There is no escaping the feeling of vulnerability; it is blind to skin color, social status, and age.â€
