Description

Dimensions: 48″x24″

Artist Name: Derek McGowan

Derek McGowan, a Baltimore native, discovered his passion for art at an early age, sketching since elementary school. His artistic journey took a more defined path in college, where he delved into the world of painting at Towson University from 1998 to 2005. Although McGowan navigated public schools, his artistic skills were mostly self-taught, contributing to his unique style. Specializing in realism with oil on canvas, McGowan draws inspiration from 19th-century French academic paintings, making his work a testament to the timeless elegance of that period. His dedication to the craft reflects a lifelong commitment to honing his skills and expressing his artistic voice.
