Today I uploaded into Slideshare a new presentation -
Nude Paintings in Original Watercolors . I uploaded my collection of work that was inspired by Lucian Freud's paintings.
I am especially enchanted by paintings that relate to the naked body. What I have seen is that when he has someone pose for him he does not paint the person as he looks in the mirror but rather he extenuates a feature and turns it into a highlight.
This pose of a lady was taken from one of his books. She is looking straight at him and he chooses to paint her with little flesh and lots of bones - a very thin portrayal of the real her.
Did any of you get this same feeling?
