Dichotomy of Man

Artist Name: Patrick Cunningham
Title of Artwork: Dichotomy of Man
Medium: Mixed Media

Artist Bio:
Patrick Cunningham loves art and history, which led him to a philosophical way of looking at life and the world around him. Born in Southern California, Patrick always knew painting is what he wanted to do with his life. His childhood passion for history and art led him to develop the Old Master Style for which
he is known. Oil paintings are his primary medium, but portraiture, sculpture and figurative abstraction are also part of his work.

Artist Statement:
Patrick Cunningham’s diverse selection of materials and techniques gives him opportunities to grow and evolve. The dichotomy of man portrays man as not purely spiritual nor material but two parts of a whole, beautifully joined together. Texture, bold color and line emphasize the contrast between the old and the new, the material and the spiritual.
