Besties

In this painting about friendship, different types of relationships are suggested: the girlfriends (maybe sisters) who walk and talk; the neighbors (maybe romantic interests) who sit and talk on the stoop; the man and his dog/best friend; and the father and son going somewhere together. The closeness and warmth, shown through facial expressions and body language, can be interpreted in multiple ways by the viewer. Make up your own story!

About Kaffee Kang
People have all sorts of unique physical attributes: sizes, shapes, hair color, etc. And we come from various backgrounds: ethnicity, culture, race, etc. And as social beings, we form and belong to different groups: family, friends, profession, etc. It is in the infinite combinations of characteristics that make people the most fascinating of painting subjects for me. While trying to maintain a freshness in my work, I have recently been delving more deeply into visual narratives that revolve around the human figure. Multiple figures, in varying circumstances, tell stories of family, friends, and strangers. Everyone has a story to tell.
