Artwork Description:
A nude done from life sketches and photos. This was done in another studio I had where I had a large oriental rug. The model was very slender and enjoyed just hanging out in the rug while I worked. I took photos of her one day and it was her idea to add the jug as a prop. I liked the patterns of the rug and jug together with opposite textures and the hard and soft of them both around the gentle beauty of the beautiful young girl. The final painting seems to have a very symbolic or metaphorical feel causing thoughts of womanhood and the many facets of the female mind.
