Foote’s work is inspired by the beauty he finds in the ordinary and imperfect, aiming to tell a short story and leave the viewer with a sense of wonder. His paintings, mostly portraits of women, utilize wonderful textures and subtle colors. The often empty backgrounds invite viewers to engage their imaginations, filling in the scenes with their own interpretations.The nuanced glances of his subjects, coupled with out-of-place elements strategically placed with sparing brushstrokes, contribute to the surrealist and uncertain nature of the narratives he presents.
