Payne G. Biography:
From his first drawings to present day, Payne has focused solely on figurative compositions. For example, he employs gentle brushwork and soft colors for a naturalistic effect. Additionally, 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. Likewise, he is knows for his feminine figurative paintings. Simply Audrey by Payne G. is an excellent example of this. His models often have their backs turned, which creates 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. Furthermore, each year the demand for his work increases. Consequently, his paintings can now be found in select fine art galleries and collections throughout the world.
