About the Artist

Tyler Hughes is a representational oil painter living and working in New York.

Tyler’s work is centered around the exploration of the human form and its emotions. He specializes in portraiture, seeking to capture the essence of his subjects through careful observation and attention to detail. Embracing the mystical and timeless, he translates archetypal themes from the realms of tarot and mythology onto canvas. With a profound connection to symbolism and the esoteric, Tyler's work invites viewers into a world where ancient stories and universal truths converge.
