About the Item

All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. Beautiful and ethereal women floating underwater are reappearing subjects in the works of Howard Schatz. This image of Shawnee Fee Jones was created for a Wolford Campaign. The model is wearing a black bodysuit floating in a pool underwater. Her back is turned toward the camera. Her red curly hair is tangled around her upper arms and floating towards the reflections of the water's surface right above her head. The model's head is turned to the side so her profile is visible to the viewer. Her skin and red hair are glowing in front of the grey wall of the pool. The image is simple, somewhat abstract, and intriguing in its soft but glowing color palette. Opulent flower crowns, intertwined bodies, and decadent dinners hosted in underwater worlds – Howard Schatz's imagery is marked by grandeur and abundance. Transgressing genres and motives, Schatz approaches portraits, nature photography, and the moving body in all its forms with an outburst of passion and energy. Liquid colors, extravagant perspectives, and daring details surprise the onlooker at every corner. Succulent vegetation and airy fabrics bleed into magical compositions.
