I learned to paint by studying the nude human body. The human body teaches us a great deal about form, colour, light and shadow — in short, many of the elements of painting.
Painting the nude is not just about looking at a living body. It is also a way of looking at ourselves. When we paint a figure, we inevitably add something of ourselves to a part of it, or to the figure as a whole.
This painting comes from a period when colour was not my main focus. I needed strong contrasts and clear outlines. I expressed myself through lines and large areas of empty space.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business.
Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world.
