Learning to soften my focus and let go of edges was often promted by the experiences they represent.
Whether my approach to a canvas is with loose brushwork with a spontaneous expression or a tightly controlled meticulous technique, the female form continues to inspire me. The casual elegance of women comfortable in her own skin often carries a component of sublime sensuality. Certain artworks are executed as an exercise to specificly loosen up my hand and brushwork, due to decades of training as a technical Illustrator. My impulse to pull out every detail often needs to be mitigated when I pick up a brush. Most of the women captured in this series are not professional models. They are friends, first and foremost artists in their own right or craft, and to my good fortune, they are willing to allow me to objectify them. |
