#104 Remarque: Spa Series - "Torso I"




Belvedere Torso






Fragmented sculpture was intolerable to the ancient Greek notion of  beauty.  Later excavations and discoveries,  such as the Belvedere Torso, changed the perception and strongly influenced late Renaissance and Baroque artists.


Like the horse, modeling the human figure is a challenge . . . 
the delicate planes are almost imperceptible.  While creating the partial figure, Torso I, my goal was to indicate and suggest the original gesture.

#23 Remarque: "Spa Series - Torso II"

I am a representational figurative artist and while birds and quadruped figures are of greatest interest to me, I'm fortunate to have an academic art background and a basic understanding of comparative anatomy.  Fundamentals of anatomy hold true regarding birds, mammals and the most highly evolved mammal of all  -  humans.


Modeling the female figure is a challenge . . . the delicate planes are almost imperceptible.  Like most artists I remain a perpetual student.
