Abstract expressionist oil painting of two nude figures embracing, their bodies merging in loose warm-toned brushwork with blue and violet accents around the edges.

Lovemaking

2009 · Oil on canvas · 310 × 207.7 cm

Two bodies fold into each other on the canvas until you can barely tell where one ends and the other begins. I worked wet into wet, warm flesh tones bleeding into brown and the edges dissolving into blue and violet, with faint pencil ghosts of earlier poses still showing at the corners. It's less about the two figures than about the heat between them.
