Anthony

I was inspired by many of the very surreal and dense paintings of the Temptation of St. Anthony, but I went the opposite way, and decided to make mine very simple. Sex and money are the core temptations. This is a wax anatomical model depicting tongue lesions associated with syphilis. I plan on incorporating money, too.

The Temptation of St. Anthony

New painting started today.

Anatomical Venus

Here is my representation of the famous Anatomical Venus of Clemente Susini made in the late 18th century. It is interesting to know that wax models of gravid anatomies were produced until the 1940s because pregnant cadavers are in somewhat short supply.

I will be using this painting, perhaps to make postcards for Zombie Fest. I have also included it in a very special artwork/jewelry box that I am offering on my etsy site.
