About the Item

This 11.5" x 15.5" abstract female nude was painted by Maurice Soulet in 1982. In a landscape orientation, the abstracted nude figure lays horizontally within the composition. The figure's head is cut off by the top right edge of the work, resulting in only her nose and mouth being visible. The figure's blonde hair hides behind her head and neck. The body of the figure is rendered in a simple and loose manner; one arm is bent with the hand positioned over her presumed stomach, and the other arm seems to sort of cradle the side of her body with the hand placed against her thigh. The dimensions of the figure's body are defined by colorful shading; the bent arm and hand upon her stomach are shaded with red and orange, and the arm that cradles the side of her body is shaded with a vivid and thick application of yellow pastel. Her breasts are clearly defined, amplified by two black solid lines that define the curve of her breasts and then shaded with the same vivid yellow pastel that shaded her arm. Her stomach is rendered as a yellow-shaded circle with a yellow triangular shape just below it, defining the separation of her legs which also have a thick yellow line of shading. The background is ambiguous filled with an array of different colors in a variety of organic shapes, some blue, grey, orange and red. The piece is in a modern, gold wooden frame. Maurice Soulet (1926-1995)

'Seated Female Nude, ' by Paul Wingo, Charcoal/Conte Drawing
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
This beautiful framed black and white large scale study of a young female model seated looking away from the viewer, 'Seated Female Nude' captures and embraces the human form. Wingo approaches the nude figure with energetic line and play of light and shadow in a monochromatic palette. " I have been an Artist for many years. I received my Masters in Fine Art from Wichita State University, in Wichita, Kansas. I have taught art for many years. My work is intentionally loose in rendering, the purpose is to engage the memory of the viewer. I believe that the Artist should lead the viewer to make conclusions of their own. At a distance I have been told that my work appears photographic, yet, upon closer examination the viewer is often surprised to find how much detail their minds-eye has added to the image. I currently reside in Norwalk, Connecticut." -- Paul Wingo

Located in Oklahoma City, OK
This 11.25 x 15.25 work on paper features a lone, seated, female dancer viewed from the back. The figure is twisting toward the viewer as she begins to look over her right shoulder. Her legs are pulled toward her body with the left leg crossed over the right. The isolation of the seated figure within the ground of the page lends a vulnerable quality to the work.
