Raw power in motion. A low-key documentary action frame capturing the physical tension of two sumo wrestlers in Japan Dramatic directional lighting isolates muscle definition, facial effort, and traditional form against a dark background #luiscordobapharchive #japan #sumo #portrait #humansofBluesky
Vertical orientation action portrait photograph titled "Sumo Match Tension, Japan". The composition captures two professional sumo wrestlers (rikishi) engaged in a close-quarters grappling bout inside a ring in Japan. The wrestler in the foreground is seen from behind, wearing a traditional dark mawashi, with his back muscles fully engaged. The opposing wrestler faces forward with a focused, intense expression, his hand gripping the opponent's belt. Warm, focused spot lighting highlights their skin textures and physical tension while falling off rapidly into dark, low-key shadows in the background, where subtle outlines of spectators are visible. Optimized for Japan sumo wrestling tournament, rikishi grappling action photography, low-key sports documentary, traditional Japanese sports portrait, and athletic movement indexing

Life-drawn portrait of Lorna, a frequent sitter in the '90s who lived nearby, pastel on Ingres paper. I still have this one hanging on the wall and others are in her possession. Unfortunately she is now too far away now to add to the collection. #art #pastel #drawfromlife #portrait

A quite large oil on canvas portrait of Lorna from 1991. This one is stored away rolled up with other canvases but I just spotted a photo of it on my camera rolll. She was a frequent and very patient sitter for portraits when she lived nearby and has several of them (more available!) #art #portrait

Portrait of Lys, a good friend who used to live nearby but now lives in Edinburgh. She has a few of my paintings including portraits of her daughters. She wasn't very good at keeping still so this portrait was worked on afterwards with a certain amount of imagination. #portrait #watercolour

I’m really excited to share that I won the Frank R. Paul Award for Best Magazine Cover Art! My painting Stasis, a self-portrait about invisible illness, was featured on the cover of Uncanny Magazine Issue 58 🖤 #art #painting #portrait #illustration
“Stasis” is a portrait painted by the artist Zara Alfonso, and is the first piece in her series about invisible illness. A portrait painting of a girl with skin so pale she’s almost translucent, her lips are tinged blue and she gazes upward through seemingly unseeing eyes. Pale moths and winged insects cover the expanse of her face and body, blending into her skin in places.
