Visit to Manifest Gallery
Visited Capella (oil on canvas) at Manifest Gallery in their 12th annual NUDE exhibit.
CAPELLA, CALLISTO & CANOPUS
I have completed my first painting series - 3 figures honoring all nude art models with each having an allegorical meaning. Capella, the innocent child. Callisto, the adventurous adolescent. Canopus, the adult awakening to the reality of time passing too quickly.
I'm excited to now be working on the first of a new series of 3 paintings at the largest size that I've ever painted (24x48 inches). All of the figures in this new series of paintings will be almost life-sized. They will allegorically represent universal truths about being human.
