About the Item
Extending the Series This graphite pencil drawing ‘Neo Deco – 02-02-23’ follows one in the same series. However, for the last one I used my regular model. This time I got yet another one of those Walter Bird’s pictures. The last one was almost two months ago. Now, I never hid my admiration for him and certainly will do not this time. There were some obstacles to meet first though. I thought there was a whole lot of blackness that I found to be too much of a good thing. Because of the extreme lighting some shadows in the hands formed new, yet incomprehensible tiny subforms. Besides that, the reference picture was of low resolution and therefor a lot of details were hard to detect. The model’s hair looked uncanny straight like straigth flaxen straw. Consequently, the beginning wasn’t promising. I can tell you that. Artistic Search I first got the proportions right. Then I thought it was a good idea to put the stress on the curvature of the body. Somehow I saw the curves extending from her buttons I could extend to her rib cage. The curve in the lower upper leg forms a nice contrast directionwise. The next sequence is the calf mimicing the curve in her lower back. I made her hair a bit more wavy in the lower part of the drawing, deviating from Bird’s photograph. There was more needed. I kept the lower right corner empty. That was a big void but I could rest my hand on it easily, preveting smudging up the whole drawing. I decided to put in two golden ratio curves. Not the first time I have to admit but they are essential to me. I see the ratio embedded in all things. Do you?

- Art Deco Nude – 23-08-22, Drawing, Pencil/Colored Pencil on PaperBy Corne AkkersLocated in Yardley, PAMovement Another graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco Nude – 23-08-22’, inspired by again a smashing picture by Walter Bird. The last drawing shows a seated lady. Contrasts are always on my mind though. Not in the style but in movement this time. What attracked me in the motif was the angular position of the female form. I am not sure whether she stood still like this but it looks like some ritual dance. I can ask my Spanish model Julia who is a dancer to strikes these kinds of poses. All induced by Walter! Extrapolate Them The bodily features almost took up a perfect square. However, I wanted to make sure I wasn’t going to end up with too much negative space around her. Therefor, extrapolating her features into the negative space came to my aid. The planes that are born from this process support the overall expression of her moves, I think. Some of them I hached up to complete darkness, other to midtones. Vice versa I did in the positive form as well. The most contrasting tonal values (completely light / dark) I placed within the body. I wanted only mildly distracting or diffuse the viewer’s attention. This way I found a perfect balance. Emotional and Expressive Someone on called...Category

- Venus Lamenting - 13-01-23, Drawing, Pencil/Colored Pencil on PaperBy Corne AkkersLocated in Yardley, PAJust Another Artistic Motif This graphite pencil drawing ˜Venus Lamenting “ 13-01-23 is a special one. It is an indictment of prudishness. My second to last one ˜Roundism “ 30-12-22 apparently shook up a bunch of people. Comments varied from great to ˜yet another tit pic. There also were prudes from various countries who scorned me for the subject nudity anyway. Throughout the years I became used to these reactions somehow. I also take into account the fact people from each and any nation are present on social media nowadays. With this variety comes a whole set of different opinions and views of life. I cherish them all. That is, as long as they cherish my opinion back. If they dont, then this art statement is for all those who lack the word reciprocity in their dictionary. Climbing the Barricades Personally I think the nude can be as much an artistic motif as any other. In fact I dont complain in the least about a world of other motifs. One could like to depict golden retrievers, red roses and other darling, save and sound themes. I see them on a daily basis on Instagram and Facebook among others. I probably wouldnt have made a big fuss because of contempt shown in the past. Thats what an artist is all about. I even like to provoke with my nudes a bit. A bit of sexiness but not too much. Just to be able to deny the presence of too much of it by underligning artistic aspects as well. Hmm, a bit of risque here an there. I love it! Why climb the barricades once again? Heres why.
