Oil on wood

(Women on three feet)
I found Rubin Hirschbeck several months ago and keep returning to his awkward figure paintings as a reminder of something challenging that isn’t being made in the city that I live in. These aren’t pretty. These aren’t easy. I love his portrayal of women with exaggerated features, thick faces and joints, involved in awkward interactions on their own or with ugly men (or other women such as themselves).
Awkward art.
