Femscapes

When artists share a model, both time, views, and space are restricted.

Poses  may range from  minutes to hours. Gestural poses, which are often done as warm ups, last only for minutes, and sometimes I paint just a small part of the model  to allow me to do more than a gestural drawing. When I move completely into a  right brain mode, it is like being in another world, and I begin seeing parts of the model like a landscape, and I liked the way some of these turned out.  Sometimes I add flowers, clouds, and mountains.  I coined the words "Bodyscape© and Femscape© to describe these paintings. As far as I can tell, these words have not been used in this way before
