New art - Nudes
 

Hello. It has been a long time since I have been around the cellar. I hope everyone is doing well. I had a job for a while, but now am again self employed as a full time artist. I have some ideas for getting my work some more exposure. I wanted to post a few of my new paintings, since I have been moving in a new direction. I am posting the links since I am not sure how sensitive some of your bosses tend to be about "sexually explicit" images.

Moonlight Bather

Found Something

On Fire

Contemplation

Meditative

If anyone gets a chance will ya look at these and give me some feedback?

Nice work.

But none of them give me wood.

sorry bout that.

Interesting, in a kind of Peter Max meets Anime kind of way ... but still distinctive. I really like the "Moonlight Bather". There's a mystery to it given that her back is toward the viewer and I really like the colors. Which do not, incidentally, go great with my sofa.

Edit to add: I tried very hard to inject some obscure artsy fartsy terms in my above statement, but it didn't go well. I even looked up the proper spelling and usage of crepuscular, but that wasn't quite what I wanted to say about it. I couldn't find a good enough website of fancy words used in critique of art.

Thanks, Wolf. I appreciate the feedback.

The link to the art from the sugarbead site resolves to this: http://www.sugarbeaddesigns.com/www....eaddesigns.com

Needs fixin'

Oops. Thanks for letting me know. I will be getting a real art gallery up pretty soon. When I do, I will update my urls.

Cool, Case. 1, 2 and 5 should be safe for work. ;)

good to know, Bruce. :D

I LOVE Meditative! Gorgeous! You're so talented! Great stuff!!!
of course, I like them all, but Meditative is my fave.

Great work. Lose the hair and what have you got?

A little more body and a little less hair would make it better for me.

My favorite is also the last one, Meditative. Neato. Always look forward to seeing your stuff Case!

I'm also a big fan of Meditative. In general (if you are still looking for feedback), I find the ones that don't feature frontal nudity to be the most interesting. Contemplative scares me a little -- the nipples are STARING at me. That might have been what you intended, of course. I was a little threatened by it, frankly. Do women have a different reaction?

I thought they were a little too overt, but I don't feel threatened by them. I am comfortable with my own boobage.

I don't mean threatened in the "my manhood is at risk" sense. I'm just saying they're giving off a different vibe than the woman's face is. The face is clearly serene, but the hair and breasts are what drew my eyes more (yah yah whatever), and they were saying "grrr".
