Gallery Opening Tomorrow Night For First Friday!

Downtown Contemporary Gallery is proud to invite you to the opening exhibit of Michael Foulkrod Oil Paintings.

In the social media age, his portraits express the persona people create for themselves based on past styles.

Michael Foulkrod calls the phenomenon the Pre-Blade Runner Era:

“What started out just trying to be better painter doing portraits turned into the emerging growing expression of a generation.”

“When I find someone to paint it is all about the moment they are bringing to me, how they want to be painted and/or what we find together. I go between alla prima to lengthy hours to whatever the painting needs to go. ”

“I usually paint two portraits of my models and give one to them so that the painting will travel through the family into the future looking back as to who they where today.”
