Payne G. Biography:
From his first drawings to his university studies to now, Payne has focused solely on figurative compositions, employing gentle brushwork and soft colors for a naturalistic effect. He incorporates both representational and abstract expression to give his art a realistic impression with a modern appeal.

Payne is best known for his iconic black and white Hollywood portraits and feminine figurative paintings. Gentlemen Prefer Blondes by Payne G. is a great example of this. His models often have their backs turned, creating a sense of ambiguity in the private moment shared between subject and viewer. With his soft brushstrokes, he effectively conveys the tactile quality of a woman’s bare arm or the intangible feeling of time gone by.

Already a well-known painter in Beijing and several major cities in China, Payne introduced his work to U.S. markets in 2010 with great reception. Each year the demand for his work increases, and his paintings can now be found in select fine art galleries and collections throughout the world.
