TWO WOMEN OF GREAT DISTINCTION



I'M FASCINATED by extremes, especially those embodied by the Human Condition: life and death, war and peace, behavior, perception, creativity and destruction, pacifism and revolution. Here are a couple artworks I created last week in the same day... extremes of representation to be sure!


The first is a mysterious Nordic warrior hailing from Africa in my forthcoming 2008 WORGARD mini-series, nameless to me when I first "saw" her in my mind, one of her comrades later referred to her as GOLDEN HAIR in a scene from the book, so I am curious to learn her real name when the time comes.


The second illo is a wonderfully round and curvy gal, a VOLUPTUOUS NUDE, and I'll leave it at that.

I adore your "curvy Gal" Shes beautiful, and the very definition of what a woman should be rather then the rail thin image women crave.

Also, you're "Golden Hair" Is stunning.

Thanks for the comment... Yes, modern societal perceptions are certainly at their most Superficial now... herd-crowd movements and unrealistic expectations have become the norm, unfortunately.

So we artists work to expose and restore the ORIGINAL human.
