Artwork Title: Honemoon Nude

Honemoon Nude, 1998

John Currin

Currin's figure paintings, usually of women, have attracted attention and controversy. They combine cartoon-like distortion with an elaborate semi-illusionistic technique which simulates flesh by the laborious layering of colour with remarkable precision. He originally used photographs in high school year books as a source of inspiration. http://artuk.org/discover/artists/currin-john-b-1962/search/nationality:American/page/3
