Anthony Shagan is a figurative painter whose deeply emotive portrayals of the human form capture quiet strength and vulnerability. Born in New York in 1997, he grew up as the only boy among five sisters. He began oil painting at age twelve after studying the Old Masters such as Leonardo da Vinci. Working in oil, he blends traditional techniques with modern insights to depict women with empathy and depth, exploring themes of connection and unspoken emotion. He continues to develop new works that invite audiences to reflect on the complexity of human connection. Collectors are drawn to his work for its exploration of deeply personal and universally relatable emotional themes.
