Exploring the sensual grace of the female body, Lessons of a Broken Heart II is inverted black paint on white. The model coated in statuesque plaster expresses the timeless mystery of romance, and the individual strength that comes from parting ways with a lover.
The painting began with a photoshoot with nude model coated in white paint to texture the skin. After capturing this image in a photo, it was transferred it to a halftone pattern, printed and hand-burned it into a silk screen emulsion. After silkscreening paint to the wood by hand, it was finished with several intricate details and splashes in black and white ink and acrylic.
