Provocative Beauty - 2H (9 paintings)

These gorgeous portraits by Joseph McSween, better known as 2H, are really fresh. I'm really impressed with how much beauty and personality he is able bring out in his female characters.

"Lately I’ve been told from people that they really connect with my paintings through the eyes of the piece. I feel the eyes are the most important part of my paintings because that’s where the mind is automatically drawn to when first viewed. It establishes an instant intimate relationship between the viewer and the painting, therefore I usually render the eyes with the most detail so you can see the soul of the model even if she is physically not material." -2H
