Last year a group of international artists published a book, the first in a series, “Artistic Expressions.”
Very exciting news is that my work has been chosen for the publication of the book “Artistic Expression II” to be released before year end in the UK.
The book is edited by Elizabeth Edwards of 1st Angel Art magazine - http://1stangel.co.uk/aaw/, check out the website; it’s loaded with interesting articles!
The book features the works of 10 artists and a variety of genres, including drawing , painting and digital art.
A number of artworks from each artist as well as the artist biography will appear in the book; however ONE of the artworks submitted has to be a work of art never seen or exhibited before, and this is where I suddenly experienced a substantial degree of artists block .
The opportunity to appear in a book is not something that arises often and wanting to make the most of it, I want to produce a truly original work of art that is not only appealing to the majority, but which is, to an extent a personal expression.
I have agonised over this piece of work for weeks, considering and reconsidering canvas size and subject matter.
I decided that a nude study would be most appropriate, primarily being my trademark but also the best way in which I could express personal feeling.
I have finally formed the idea – almost fully! A nude study, a painting; not unlike my past work, but using a new technique. All I can tell for now, is that the name of the work is “Release me”, and NO, it does not allude to any form of BDSM, it is a statement of emotion!
Hope this wets your appetite for the book!
