"I find that I'm drawn to strong contrast. I enjoy using unusual lighting to define specific aspects of a pose or situation. I find it fascinating how different moods and feelings can be drawn out by revealing or hiding certain elements."

Rob Harrell's careful use of strong light and decisive brushwork give his work a sense of drama and emotion. His figurative paintings at once evoke a powerful feeling of contemplation and inner strength.
