MERAV IN THOUGHT


Merav can be in a contemplative pose, and yet she always looks as if she may spring into action, like a cat. I was inspired to paint her with a colorist approach.

FIGURE 69


Figure model reclining on colorful pillows. She's a serpentine dancer in repose.

I may have gotten carried away with all the color, but I had fun with this. I'm learning about structure, form and color applied to the figure from Camille Przewodek- but I want to loosen up a bit as I apply what I'm learning.

FIGURE 68

Nude figure model seated on orange textile covered stool.

This was painted in two evening sessions with a group of artists I have kept company with for a number of years. I was seeing the contrasts of this model in the composition as reflections of inner contrasts. Soft against edgy...  Sweet against hard.... Warm against cool.

FIGURE 64

This was a color study of the same model and pose as the previous painting (Figure 63).  I was curious to see how I would handle the same pose either as a value or color study. They look so different to me.
