A dramatic oil painting in a realist kinetic style, painted in the bold, expressive style of Steve Huston. It depicts an image of a lean, athletic boxer shadowboxing alone in a dimly lit room. He stands with his fists raised in a boxing guard stance, his elbows tight in at his sides and his fists protecting his face. What can be seen of his face is cast in deep shadow. The figure is sculpted with thick, gestural brushstrokes, highlighting raw energy and motion. Dramatic lighting carves out every muscle and tendon, with deep shadows and stark, pale highlights creating a visceral sense of form. His gloves are made of worn red leather. The background remains loosely abstract, blending into the shadows with painterly depth. The composition radiates the strength and determination displayed by the practice a boxer must put in before he ever steps into the ring. Extremely detailed muscles, dynamic lighting, dark background, upper body focus, side view, extremely detailed, solo. comic art, James Harren.
