Muscular Back, 24x36 inches oil on canvas panel by Kenney Mencher

THIS WORK IS ORIGINAL (NOT A PRINT OR GICLEE)

Shipping takes 3-4 Weeks

The color scheme of this work is based on a warm/cool relationship. The theory is that warm colors, such as oranges and yellows appear to project forward when placed against the contrast of a cool color (colors that share blue.)

I try to create a more interesting composition by having the focal point (the head) placed in the right third of the picture and try to heighten this asymmetrical composition by having the figure look at the viewer. The line from the head down the shoulder is designed to create a strong diagonal running towards the lower corner of the picture.

The paint is applied in thick layers (artists use the Italian term "impasto" translates to the English word "paste.) The textures of the paint vary across the painting. The background is troweled on with knives and scrapers while the figure's paint texture shows the stiff bristle brushes. The textures of the figures are designed to follow the directions of the muscles and planes of the body.

The subject matter of most of my paintings deals with thicker middle aged me often referred to as bears. I'm trying to represent the beauty of older hyper masculine men who often get overlooked by our more youth oriented culture.

Kenney’s pieces are even more amazing in person. The pictures offer a great reference but don’t do the detail of his work and brush strokes justice.

This painting came in the mail today and it is even better in person than the image on Etsy! The well-chosen colors, interesting and perfectly constructed composition, and the great use of brush strokes to define the musculature, all indicate that this painting was made by a master artist. I would be remiss, too, if I did not also thank him for his great service, quick shipping, and all the extras he sent along with the painting, itself. Thank you!

Amazingly-beautiful!!! I love love love it. Becoming a big fan of the artist. I would highly recommend him. Will be buying more if he paints more silver foxes for sure I’m very excited to own this piece.

Great communication with the artist regarding the shipping process. When the package arrived I was very impressed with the care taken - the padding shows he values the work as much as I do. Surprised with the extras he slipped in the package - a watercolor study for the diptych, a program detailing his works and history, and several notecards (that will probably end up framed as well). I’m so happy to have found Mencher’s work.
