Portraits Of Logan, Leroy Lawson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The purpose of this thesis is to explain some of the historical and personal developments in the painting of portraits.

For this project, eleven models were selected all of whom showed a wide range of emotional types and were painted in oil on canvas. The subjects were placed in shallow space, and color was explored as an emotional element. The personal experiences were evaluated and ideas for future development were suggested.
