Painting from the bbq photoshop render. Keeping to my interests of hedonism I added Cigarettes and Alcohol to the characters. I also painted them nude, honestly Im unsure why and I don’t think its relevant to the message behind the image. I do just have an affinity with painting people naked. For one, It adds humour to the paintings, I also think its important to represent the naked human form in a way that isn’t pornographic or “dirty”. There’s a lot of pressure and disagreement in society around the naked body, It can bring a lot of harm and sadness to people and I think that painting these figures nude is a way for myself and other people to take it more lightly. I think it just makes for a more interesting image. I love this pair of paintings
