ABOUT THIS PAINTING
This standing luminous female figure, imposing and sculptural was painted from life in studio. By juxtaposing warm and cool skin tones I create a shimmering effect of light. The thick brushstrokes applied with a flat brush create a dynamic effect and rich texture of the skin. The red background creates warmth and a sensual feel to the picture as the body seems to be radiating light and warmth.

ABOUT ME:
Carole Nataf was born in Paris in 1989. She grew up in the heart of the Latin Quarter in Paris, influenced by the intellectual and academic scene of the area. From her mother, she inherited an early predilection for Arts and the inspirational charisma of family artists. In college, she studied Literature and Philosophy before attending graduate studies in business. After studying art privately in Paris, NYC, San Francisco and Boston, she grew a passion for Plein Air painting and Allaprima painting techniques. She developed a special interest in texture contrast where soft meets harsh and delicate meets blunt. Influenced by artists such as Edward Hopper and Edouard Manet, she is admirative of their unmatched ability to simplify shapes, and juxtapose contrasting values without blending. Currently she lives and works in Boston and Cambridge, MA. She won the First prize at Revere Beach Art Festival in 2016…
