Figurative Painting and Portraits

          Artist Anthony A. González works from his studio located north of San Antonio, Texas. Anthony's works are representational, primarily in oils and for his subject matter, the female figure. He also accepts commissions for the portraits; most notables have been mayors of San Antonio as well as private portraits. He has traveled and studied in Madrid Spain, but much of his technique is self-taught. He has given workshops in and around San Antonio as well as Spain and Italy.

"The general focus of my artwork is representational, and my technical approach is intuitive with a primary emphasis on the subject of the feminine. I focus on the expression, attitude, form, color and costume as each of these are the inspiration for my works.  An emotional connection or identification with the figure is what my paintings are meant to convey.  It is my hope that the viewer will also identify and connect with the subject of my work." Anthony A. González

Anthony A Gonzalez will conduct two day workshop at his studio near Spring Branch, Texas throughout the year. Check the workshop page for updates. There will be a live model to draw and paint from. The workshops consist of working on color, composition, and how to work from a photograph.
