BRINK will be hosting the second Vino Veritas Artist Showcase at Kenilworth Wines this month (June), featuring a small selection of eclectic portraits of famous film stars and characters by nationally acclaimed painter Paul Oz.

Of particular interest to sci-fi enthusiasts and fans of Star Wars, is Oz's stunning portrait of Yoda, which is rendered in thick impasto, oil on board measuring approximately one metre square. "We are delighted to have the opportunity to exhibit Yoda, especially when the work is destined for Selfridges in London, later this year", says BRINK Co-founder, Tim Robottom.

Oz aims to impart the personality and energy of the subjects. The paint is three dimensional, as facial and musculature features are actually carved into the oils, creating real shadows as well as painted ones.

Other smaller, dark and exciting works on show and available for purchase are ink on paper.
