Alan Reid (artist)

For other people of the same name, see Alan Reid (disambiguation).

Alan Reid (born 1976) is a contemporary American artist who lives in New York City.

His gauzy, colored-pencil representational images of heiresses, bored fashionistas and aquiline beauties have been called provocatively light, with coloring as delicate as his women are elegant.[1][2][3][4][5]

The work invites reasoning, provocation and negotiation of absurdist scenarios involving majestic women in insipid situations.[6][7]
