Annalise Johanna Kučan {Oil Portraits and Paintings}
Artist Statement
My ongoing artistic mission is to render profound, unique versions of human spirit through my oil portraits. I am inspired by substantial physical features, especially the eyes, which outlet and humbly translate immense feeling. Many of my pieces are meant to depict a sentimental, personal reflection of the subject’s own life experience or spirituality. I strive for the public to grasp a deeper understanding of the emotion in those portrayed, and to experience a connection of soul with these individuals when viewing my work. Blending on canvas and focusing on capturing life’s light, I wish to convey a beautiful, unrefined, moving perspective of human sentiment through my brush. In following this path, I hope to always positively impact the lives of others by projecting the true connection of God and soul, and the spiritual saturation of life which is His love.
