Peter McRury is a Canadian artist living and working in Austin.
When painting, he usually works towards something visually quiet, focused, and compositionally minimal rather than towards a scene or narrative. He’s primarily interested in exploring new ways to represent the figure (mostly the face) with the assistance of digital tools.
The time he spends creating his work is evenly split between the act of painting itself, mainly with an airbrush, and an iterative process of photographing works-in-progress and using photoshop to layer the photographs with elements of previous works in order to create new reference material.
