Original artwork description:
The model, Amanda, co-operated wonderfully during the prolonged execution of this complex painting. The triptych is hinged enabling the two outer portions to fold over and cover the centrepiece; the closed doors are decorated with a reclining figure in pastel of another model, Shan.
See Individual panels for details: Left, Right, and Central. An important work (to me at least) exploring the transformation of the female form through clothes and make-up. The dichotomy of the triptych(!) also confuses 'dressed up' with a mundane chore. An area I want to explore further, however it's important, as ever, to see that handling of paint is not subservient to subjective reality.
The triptych is quite heavy and fragile and requires a custom-built box for carriage. It is, in a sense, four paintings in one.
Materials used:
Spectrum oil paint, knives, sticks, paste medium.

I guess I'm an old school painter, believing in the sanctity of the studio: it's a separate world to the outside where different rules apply. Here is a place... Read more
