Stewart Angus MacFarlane is a figurative Australian painter and musician. He enrolled at the South Australian School of Art at age 16 to study painting and earned a Diploma of Fine Arts in 1974. In 1977 he graduated with a B.F.A. (painting) from the School of Visual Arts, New York City. His style is a pared-down realism (with expressionistic touches) combined with a surreality of lighting and perspective. He often, though not always, places a female or male nude in a situation of erotic enigma. He paints the Australian scene representative of Western society as a whole.
