Original artwork description:

A study of the male form.

From my figurative phase, this figure is deliberately exaggerated in areas to distort perspective... jyst as the perception of beauty or perfection is often distorted in our urgent society.

There are some raised outlines in this piece and it is painted black on the sides. A definite border symbolic of our restrictions in trying to look like an ideal.

Strung at the back ready for hanging.

Materials used:

Acrylic on canvas
