The Education of Eve

The Education of Eve

ABOUT: The Garden of Eden is such a rich theme and open to a multiplicity of interpretation. Here is the awakening of Eve, with lust, temptation, desire, some innuendo, and a final expulsion. There is a suggested narrative, though it is not linear, and much is left to the viewer to create his/her understanding of the painting. The different panels and images play off each other, each contributing to the whole.

MEDIUM: Watercolor and acrylic on paper

Steampunk

Steampunk

DESCRIPTION: My model, A, embodies the steampunk image in the way she dresses and presents herself. She loves the fantasy element that it offers. Responsive to my models, their interests and what they bring to a session, I wish to bring this into the art that I create.
