Ron EA Powell mixes a variety of textures, techniques and styles in his haunting yet strangely tranquil paintings. The sensuous faces of his subjects are often framed by painterly brushwork and expressionist flourishes, but whatever amalgam of techniques he uses, Ron's concern is always the emotional impact of his portraits. At times pensive, contemplative or unabashedly fervent, Ron's subjects reveal themselves to us while remaining enigmatic. REAP (Ron EA Powell) was born in Newark, New Jersey. Of Jamaican heritage, Powell has visited this source of culture and family ties on several occasions, lending a Caribbean influence to his work. He majored in Fine Arts at New Jersey City University. Powell has also studied figure drawing at The Art Student League of New York, New York City, N.Y. and now currently works at Tiffany & Co., as a Graphic Designer.\r\nREAP is undaunted in working with large or small works, thus striking every drawing / painting with great conviction. Intense attention to detail, he creates a rhythm and composition in his work that is engaging, spiritual, and thought provoking.
