The new painting by Max Ferguson touches on his interest in family. A young mother is viewed overlooking a vast horizon of water. It is an image that speaks of tranquility and optimism. Ferguson posses the rare ability to depict very intimate moments with a pervasive appeal. At times it's as if the more personal the piece, the more universal his message.
Ferguson's style, which is comparable to a mixture of 17th Century Vermeer and 20th Century Edward Hopper, is meticulously detailed. Ferguson's paintings have been widely exhibited & collected since the 1980s, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The British Museum, Crystal Bridges Museum of Art and numerous other public and private collections.
