The nude in the contemporary art
That is a great painting Pictor. It would be a difficult pose to hold - or did you do it from a photo?
I collect modern nude paintings (or prints) and smallish sculptures. It includes one by Rolf Harris. I have also done some nude life drawing and carved some statuettes. They are all around my home. My next ambition is to be a life model. (BTW in the art world Life usually means nude)
Hi, usually I work from photo because my models are around the world. But I do not "repeat" the photo with painting, so for me is onlya reference of the model. Is the model who decide how want to be. For example, a model send to me a photo at home, but she wants to be at Tokio... no problem.
I invite you to visit my website. You will see all my artworks.
Or to visit my page in Saatchi Art.
