Eric K. Wallis (painting)
The emotional response to the figure is powerful and communicates messages both beautiful and controversial. I explore the romantic side of our “love/hate” relationship with the nude and our human, emotional response to the body, particularly the female gender. Emotional energy exchanged between artist and connoisseur through visitation of intimate artwork facilitates a growth of intimacy throughout society. Indeed I am for world peace through love and appreciation of our own kind. [source]
