Description: ‘You go, girl.’ (2016) acrylic and oil on paper; painting by Briana June Burris. The inspiration was to paint a symbol for encouragement and optimism. The thumbs up hand gesture is a simple and universal symbol for these qualities that I strive to embody both inside and outside of the hospital. Hyperrealism is the hardest style of painting and I surprised myself with the number of colors this painting required.
Artist: Dr. Briana June Burris is a board-certified Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, who recently completed a two-year fellowship in Endoscopic Maxillofacial Surgery and Minimally Invasive Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Surgery at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH); after completing her residency training at Harbor-UCLA, a busy Level 1 Trauma Center serving Los Angeles, California.
