Fingerpainting

Close
Fanny/Fingerpainting
1985

Chuck Close is known for making his portraits look like giant blown up photographs. Up close you are able to see the detail that goes into the portrait. The reason I like this painting so much is because this particular painting is made up of Closes inked fingerprints. The small dots together made up the large scale portrait but when you see the detail it doesnt look like anything.
