"The Teacher" is an original oil painting on canvas by Danny Warhole. The painting dimensions are 24" x 36” (.75” depth). The painting is framed in a thin (.5” width) floater frame with a 1.5” depth that was handmade and stained by the artist. The frame has a golden oak stain. The back of the painting is signed by the artist and it is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity (also signed to the artist). 
 
The title of the painting, "The Teacher," is a double entendre. Most obviously, the title comes from the body language of the two models in the painting. The figure on the left appears more dominant, like a teacher. He leads the figure on the right through the placements of his hands on his partner's body. In addition, the title of the painting is an homage to Danny’s mentor in oil painting, Roy DeVries, who met with Danny weekly to guide him through the process of creating this painting’s various layers and nuances.
 
The painting was inspired by a photograph by San Diego-based photographer Xing She, with the photographer’s permission. The models are Mr. Bradford (mrbradford7) on the right and Kevin McDonald (IG: @yourfriendkevin_) on the left.
