Three Graces

digital, 2/2/2020

There have been many renditions of the Three Graces.  The inspiration for  this one is Jean Baptiste Renault, 1793.  The inspiration for Renault's painting was a statue at the  the Libreria Piccolomini in the Duomo at Siena.

Why did i make this?  To make something beautiful.  To work with the anatomy.  Something to do.  A pleasurable activity to do.

This image has been popular since ancient Greece, and even before that time.  I feel a part of a stream of artist who have painted this theme.  A theme of beauty, grace, charm and creativity.
