Clothed and Unclothed, 2023

Diane Ponder

Ink on paper

24 in x 18 in x .01 in

The work was inspired by the model at the Oak Park Art League. A regular part of my art practice is attending open figure study.
I hope viewers will feel a little playful and cheery and perhaps attentive to how they move in their own body. What is the difference when they put on their own clothes? Is it playful or is it practical?
I used a portable watercolor set with a small brush.
