Portraits
Paul McCartney
McCartney in the bearded years: long hair, a gentle gaze, an open blue collar.
The face comes out of a brown half-dark with a little red burning in it. The light falls from the left on forehead and cheekbone and leaves the other half in shadow. Novoro paints the ex-Beatle the way one might paint an old master’s sitter, and in doing so gives the icon back a human face.

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.
