| Todd Leninger Portland OR One of the strengths I have noticed regarding figurative artwork of the master artists was their ability to convey the transitions of flesh masses from one area to another. In the works of Van Dyke, Rubens, Jordaens, Velasquez and a very few others, folds of flesh take on a whole new level of understanding. Masses competing for space in a beautiful undulating manner where the conflict is finally resolved as the two distinct masses become one. This space where they become one is my greatest fascination. I was working from the living model 12 or more hours per week and began drawing small studies of armpits, the rolls of stomach and back, groins and navels, corners of the mouth and the like, all on one page to save money. Over time the studies began to work into one another, creating a whole new visual concept of the human form. I hope that you may find the beauty in the nuances that have captured my attention. |
