Portraits
Jean Paul Gaultier
The couturier in a white jacket, blue-eyed, with a sideways smile.
Cropped silver hair, dark shirt open at the collar: the head has the crispness of a studio photograph, while the jacket is brushed in broadly and left to show its strokes. The ground slides from green to dark red. Fashion’s enfant terrible sits as an agreeable man who is clearly enjoying being painted.

About the series
The portrait is painted in oil, in successive layers, without copying a photograph: likeness emerges from accumulated matter and the harmony of colours. Commissioned portraits are made in the studio from references supplied by the sitter.
