Artist Profile: Edward Huner
Edward Huner
BFA, SCA
Statement:
I am a figurative artist working primarily in oils on canvas but working extensively in drawing as well. In my paintings, I approach the figure (generally nudes) as a visually compelling and complex object that creates tension and narrative possibilities within my compositional designs. I do not paint from the model preferring to work from multiple studio drawings. This approach offers me fewer constraints in composition and rendering specific to my conceptual intent.
