Oil on aluminum, 19 1/2" x 16 1/4" framed

Paul Beckingham is a contemporary realism oil painter based in New England. Mostly self-taught, Beckingham's work reflects a blend of nostalgic and everyday subjects, natural and synthetic, framed in dramatic light. He finds that capturing the effects of light in an ordinary scene elevates it to a compelling narrative. When combining light effects with a mix of impressionistic and photorealistic elements the results can be arresting. Beckingham is a member of Oil Painters of America and his paintings can be found in private collections in the United States, United Kingdom and Germany.
