Profiles of Color III: Fabric, Face, and Form is the third iteration of portrait paintings in which Jackson employs mixed media collage techniques and oil paint to further his exploration in re-imagining African American portraiture. Vivid hues, geometric shapes, and rich fabrics result in dramatic renderings of faces – some with floral masks, engulfed in bursts of color offering fanciful narratives from his imagination.
