In Wine N Dine Her , Chase Lock, with his signature bold strokes and layered textures, creates a dynamic portrait that both celebrates and critiques the traditional roles and expectations surrounding women. The exaggerated facial features, particularly the large eye and full red lips, call to mind Picasso’s explorations of the female form, especially his fascination with women as muses and symbols of creativity. This painting, a reflection of Chase Lock's personal respect for women, draws inspiration from his upbringing by his mother and sister, infusing the work with personal significance. Wine N Dine Her is a celebration of feminine strength and beauty, while also exploring the complexities of identity.
