Oxidized and polished to a shiny black finish

Much like confetti

then coaxed into a convex and curved form

Red and yellow flowers bloom

Sunlight reflects off snow trees in wintertime

Prophet acrylic-painting Oxidized and polished to aProphet is an original painting by Joby Baker. This figurative painting is gestural, expressive, and dramatic. Baker paints with eloquent brushstrokes that demonstrate both form and feeling. His paintings often feature figures in moments of isolation and situations of anguish and disfigurement. He explores the recurrent themes of an isolated man, a split figure, or figure emerging from or blending into another.
