Artist's Comments

This was probably the most minimal piece I did for this series. I really wanted to see how far I could push simplicity and still make it work. This piece was also hard to get a good reproduction of I hope it looks ok. Oil on panel 22"x29".

i like the contortion of the body. I don't think this one works quite as well as the others, but I like it nonetheless. I think it would be much better in real life, as this picture is a little blurry. I am a fan and not a fan of the open space at the top. Sometimes it seems to empty, sometimes it seems just right.

It's great! A bit more empty, with less emotional impact but, as you've said, it's suppose to be minimal (which it is, of course). Anyway, it's amazing and I can't wait to see more of your work. :)

This very nice:)! Actually I really like the emptiness of this painting. And does have emotional impact!:) how much time did it take to paint it?

Thank you for the honest critique. I can see what you mean. The picture is a bit blurry a few of my pieces I had to try to photograph due to difficulty scanning it. If I can get a better quality image I’ll defiantly replace it. Thanks for commenting. :)

It didn't take me that long, I worked on it for 3 maybe 4 days. I don't remember how many hours though. I'm glad you like it. :D

When I first saw this in the smaller size I actually thoguht the body was a hastily packed suitcase, which would give this a comepletly differnent meaning (although that would be cool too). The curled body is a much more intresting subject though, much more emotion. I like the simplictity and the little details like the power cord, it's cool how you chose to make it go straight through the body... there's a powerful meaning in that that I can't really find the right words for.

And of course this is done with an amazing skill in realism. Really, really amazing.
