Figures
In Standridge's figure paintings, human forms emerge through explosive color harmonies that transcend mere visual representation. Through his synesthetic lens, the body becomes a vessel for pure emotional and sensory expression - where a curve might echo a musical note, or a splash of cobalt blue whispers a tactile sensation. Each figure study pulses with dynamic energy, as flesh tones dance with bold chromatic counterpoints, creating a sensory choreography that moves beyond traditional figure painting.
Whether rendered in passionate reds and blues or subtle earth tones, these works capture not just the physical form, but the very essence of human presence translated through multiple sensory channels. The gestural brushwork and intuitive color choices reflect the artist's unique ability to see, feel, and hear color simultaneously, resulting in figures that seem to vibrate with their own inner music.
