Self Portrait is a survey of trends in this series of 27 paintings from 1966 to 2017. River is an explorer In this practice of creating images of the self. Many artists traditionally explore the self-portrait as a periodic exercise. River has taken the tradition into an extensive series. He works both the dynamics of the motif as well as personal statements of being. The use of color spans from Flemish glazing methods for a traditional play of subtle flesh tones to a vivid abstract random collision of vector forces. Most often working in a series, these samples are the tip of large bodies of work. River's broad spectrum of stylistic exploration underscores his exploratory process. A section of digital paintings and multimedia art shows River's borderless voyage in his process. A common thread is a heavy evidence of hand. Amazingly this migrates to the digital work as well.
