Series is a study of what happens to identity when it is pushed beyond comfort-beyond clarity-beyond control. These abstract expressionist portraits are not depictions of people, but of. Built through thick impasto, aggressive layering, and forceful gestures, each piece captures the moment where the human form begins to fracture under invisible weight. Faces emerge, dissolve, and reassemble in real time-never fully resolving, never fully disappearing. Pressure in this series is both physical and psychological. It compresses, distorts, and reshapes. It erases detail while amplifying presence. What remains is something raw and undeniable: a. Felt more than seen. Set against deep, textured black grounds, the figures are pushed forward into existence, as if forced into visibility. Every mark is a reaction-every layer a response to force. These works live in the threshold: between control and collapse, between identity and abstraction, between who we are and what remains when we are pushed too far. Is not about breaking- it is about what holds, and how long it can last. We are Joey and Rhonda Havlock-artists with over 35 years of experience, united by a shared belief that art shapes how a space is felt, not just how it is seen. Our original artworks and designs are rooted in the idea of set and setting: that the objects surrounding you-what you live with, move through, and return to-quietly influence mood, energy, and perspective. Through original artworks and expressive design, we create pieces intended not only to be viewed, but to be experienced-to invite curiosity, shift atmosphere, and bring intention into everyday life. This philosophy extends across a thoughtfully curated body of work that includes original paintings, home décor, wearable art, and personal objects. Whether it’s an evocative piece for your wall or something woven into your daily rituals, each creation is designed to engage the space around it-and the person within it.
