Adrian Duke is an American-born painter who explores the human condition in its most fragile state. As if trapped in amber, upon his canvases we find ourselves. Fettered between the states of being and becoming, our humanity is peeled back to expose much of the shame beneath, and much of its beauty. This revelation is achieved through an artistic technique that drags forth its prosaic visions from the ether and gifts them with nothing less than the breath of god. The divine, hiding in plain sight . . . effortlessly disguised as works crafted by a professional musician with no formal training in art, who just needed to kill some time during the pandemic.

Adrian resides in Charlottesville Va with his wife Holly and daughter Dylan . . . and a Boston Terrier (Weezy) and a Lynx Point Siamese cat (Maybellenne Bianca) . . . and also another cat.
