This framed fine art giclee print from the acrylic painting titled "Four Guys" from 2020 depicts four stylishly dressed men posing together against a vivid blue background. The artist, Antionette Simmons Hodges, drew inspiration from an old photograph shared by a friend, capturing the unique fashion and camaraderie of a group dubbed "block boys" from Washington D.C. during their college days.
The figures are rendered with expressive brushwork and simplified features, each adorned in distinctive period attire and hats popular during that era. From left to right, one man wears a dark suit with a striped tie, while his companions sport a light suit, a dapper blue suit and hat, and a tan suit with a yellow sweater-vest respectively.
Despite the stylization, Hodges imbues each figure with an individualized pose and expression, from the bright smile of the central blue-suited man to the more pensive looks of his friends. Their sartorial flair and group dynamic exude a sense of youthful confidence and the strong bonds of friendship.
With its bold color palette, textured paint application, and lively subjects frozen in time, "Four Guys" celebrates the personal memory that inspired it while also documenting an aspect of African American culture and male camaraderie from days past. Hodges' ability to breathe new life into a vintage snapshot results in a vibrant, nostalgic scene.
This Giclee print on archival-quality paper with fade-resistant inks ensures a brilliant investment piece. Perfect for adding uplifting, joyful energy and a stylish statement to any contemporary living space or gallery wall.

Paper & Materials
Each framed fine art print is crafted using the giclée printing method—an advanced, high-resolution inkjet process that produces stunningly accurate reproductions with exceptional color depth and detail. We use pigment-based giclée inks that are archival, fade-resistant, and designed to last over 100 years.
The artwork is printed on heavyweight Somerset fine art paper, made from 100% cotton and known for its luxurious texture and natural feel. This acid-free, lignin-free paper provides a stable foundation that preserves both the color fidelity and detail of the original work. The result is a museum-quality print, framed with care and precision for a timeless presentation.
