The Introspective


Portraits



These portraits represent deep thought. They speak of people who reach a level of growth of self-analysis and awareness, introspect, to self-examine, and contemplate their own life, to think of our existence as human beings and why we live our lives, to look within. They are about relationships.

22X22 The Relationship Introspection Watercolor

The Beauty of the Pear.


These Pears have been painted with love and adoration. They are an exercise in joy and happiness. I experience fond memories such as when I was a child using my first box of 72 Color Carola Crayons. Also when I was Five or Six and drawing on the easel Chalkboard with colored Chalk my mother purchased for me.

ARTIST BIOGRAPHY


Born in 1961, Alphonse Lane is a visionary artist and dedicated educator whose vibrant creations transcend the bounds of convention. With a deep-rooted passion for the arts, Lane embarked on his artistic journey at The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA), where he obtained his Certificate of Fine Art in 1986. Here, he delved into the realms of painting and printmaking, laying the foundation for his future explorations. Lane's thirst for knowledge led him to The University of Pennsylvania, where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1995. Here, he delved into the nuances of mural painting and visual studies, expanding his artistic horizons and refining his aesthetic sensibilities.


Returning to PAFA in 2004, Lane pursued a Master of Fine Arts degree, focusing his studies on painting and the intricacies of creative

pictorial space. This period of intense introspection and experimentation marked a pivotal chapter in Lane's evolution as an artist, as he honed his craft with unwavering dedication and fervor.


Inspired by the untamed beauty of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park in the late 1980s, Lane returned to Philadelphia in 1991 with a renewed sense of purpose. Immersed in the study of the floral genre, he sought

to capture the ephemeral beauty of nature on canvas, infusing his work with vivid colors and delicate brushwork.


In the late 2010s, Lane embarked on a journey of surreal exploration, drawing inspiration from masters such as Paul Klee and Wassily

Kandinsky of the Bauhaus German School of Art. Pushing the boundaries of convention, he reimagined reality through a kaleidoscope of vibrant hues and dreamlike compositions.


Lane's artistic achievements have been celebrated far and wide, earning him accolades such as the Charles Firth Award of Excellence and the Tri-State Artist Equity Award. His work has been showcased at esteemed institutions including The University of Pennsylvania Fox Art Gallery, the Micro Museum in Brooklyn.


In 2018-2019, Lane received a grant from the City of Philadelphia and The Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, funded by The National Endowment for the Arts, further cementing his status as a pioneering force in the world of contemporary art.


Today, Alphonse Lane continues to create with boundless passion and creativity, painting in the tranquil solitude of his home and studio in Berwyn, Pennsylvania. As an artist and educator, he remains dedicated to pushing the boundaries of artistic expression and inspiring the next generation of creative minds.
