About the Item
This painting is from my undergrad senior thesis at Skidmore College in 2013.
This was an important painting for me because it was the very first bridge between my print making and painting processes. You can see this in the way I use line sharp edges and line work to define the human form, something traditionally considered soft and organic. This is the beginning stage of my interest in using line as a way to explore shape and form, which you can see carries throughout all my work, just in different ways of exploration.
I am the artist, Mel Reese. I received my B.S. from Skidmore College in 2013 and an MFA in Fine Arts from the School of Visual Arts (SVA) in NYC in May 2017. I live and work in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. If you are local, come say hi! I'd love to host you for a studio visit and discuss more about my past and present work.

Painting was part of my solo show "Nude in Interior", March 2022. Can be shipped rolled in a tube for faster and less expensive shipping. Please inquire. "I started by painting interiors, being interested in space and perspective through my studies. These scenes evolved, when I added the human figure. I focused more on the human figure and its relation to the background. The human figure is more present than ever in my paintings now. As a woman artist I’ve been preoccupied with the female form and its imagery. One of my goals was to capture the solitary moments and the nude’s relation to the surrounding space. My interest turned from depicting the space to rendering the atmosphere and the scene as a whole, the feeling a woman adds to the environment: warmth, desire, joy, a feeling of power and control, or the opposite – sadness, despair. Here is a collection of figurative paintings, exploring the nudes in interior spaces, seeing the nudes from my perspective, as a woman artist, considering the physical and spiritual realities of a woman’s body, in a new level of intimacy. My paintings are the opposite of objectifying a woman’s or a man’s anatomy. Painted works, featuring female nudes and a also men nudes...Category
