This painting takes its inspiration from Jeffrey Smart’s 'Portrait of Clive James' in which the subject appears as a distant figure on an overpass. In 'Portrait of a City Guy' the subject looks out from the balcony of an apartment above a car-parking station on North Terrace. To reduce the subject to such proportions plays with the conventions of portraiture.
