Notes

General Note
"I am drawn to and wish to convey the effect body language and positioning has on both the viewer and the model. The use of oil paint to communicate strong expressions allows for experimentation with both minimal efforts and with layering and overworking the piece in order to articulate vertain gestures. Through complementary colors and dramatic values, a sense of balance is established. The obscure and blurred faces of the figures allow the viewer to focus on physical communication as well as the reciprocity between one's own posture and his or her surroundings. I am interested in studying the nude figure and how the human body has evolved to communicate. The depiction of nude models creates an atmosphere that is pure and outlandish; intimate and exposed; seductive and self-indulgent. I hope that my work can compel the viewer to consider the vulnerability conveyed from these figures' arrangements and can be reminded of the interchangable relationship between societal expectations, surroundings and emotions with how we choose to physically appear to others."
