''Man Profile in Grey Trousers''
By Stuart McHarrie

The main painting of this conversation: the Man Profile in Grey Trousers, comprises of a closed composition featuring a profile of a man wearing monochromatically coloured grey trousers. As discussed, the Man Profile in Grey Trousers due to its relatively large size appears to be of a stronger render. In terms of the process behind it, It serves as a great highlight of the techniques Stuart uses in his practice. One of which being a usage of masking tape which although Stuart described as mechanical, I also find to be strongly organic and rewardingly fluid.
