Repose
Some of you might remember that in a post titled Risqué or Okay? I stressed about posting art online that contained nudity - not a problem with nudity in art but with putting it online. And how I got over it when I posted the piece Fire a few months ago.
Also in that first post I had some close-up shots of a piece that I was calling Oklhoma Hills at the time. I was never quite satisfied with that piece so it moved out of sight for awhile. When I pulled it out again, I realized the hills/sky were just too juvenile and the body was underemphasized so I scraped and collaged and colored and beeswaxed, and here we are.
She is not nearly as subtle as Fire, is she? I'd love to know your thoughts.

I LOVE this piece! I am a fan of using the human body and nudity in art (tastefully) which I believe you have very successfully accomplished here. I love this direction if it is in fact a direction you are taking. :)
Thanks Brittany
I am trying to include of my own drawing in my collages these days but I'm not always consistent.
