Description of the Artwork “Body Positivity Reclaimed”
In this intimate portrayal, the artist transcends a simple nude genre to celebrate the sensual and maternal facets of a mature woman's identity. Through vibrant colors and dynamic textures, he elevates her from the monotony of daily life to a symbol of natural elegance. Each stroke of pastel and every textured curve reclaims her body confidence, casting aside self-criticism in favor of a warm, affectionate perspective on her own femininity.
Artwork in the interior
John Patrick, United Kingdom
John Patrick has created with a variety of media from contemporary cement and glass to the more classical media of charcoal and oils, starting from 1994 in Oxford UK. For much of this time his main focus of attention has been representations upon the female nude figure. He taught and facilitated life drawing groups in Oxford, then later in Cheshire and North Yorkshire, before returning to his roots in Lancashire where he provides 1-2-1 tuition sessions to total beginners, wanting to explore figurative art. John has exhibited widely and often supports charity art auctions, creating and donating specific artworks, in support of women's health and well-being. In this manner he gives back and supports some of the magnificent women who have posed for him over the years. For his personal artworks he rarely works with professional models, preferring to collaborate with women wanting "to become art". Around 2008/9 he was on national television teaching celebrity presenters how to draw and paint the female nude from a live sitting and around the same time the Art Editor of a national daily newspaper posed whilst he created a representation of her in quick setting cement on canvas, with bright acrylic paints applied to the still-wet cement "alla fresco"
