Title: You pervert
Medium: Acrylic

November 3,2015
"You pervert" is inspired by my attraction to the male body and their muscle structure. The purpose of this work is to show the male body in its natural form. I wanted to impress the viewers with something different and unique. My inspiration comes from an specific piece by Henri Matisse "Emelle's Black hair" I did not focus my work base on the pose or the gender, but the nudity in the painting.

Inspiration
Matisse inspired me with:
1. Nudity 2. Pose http://cultured.com/image/3864/La_Coiffeur/#.VtZQ3W_SnIU "Emely's black hair" by Henri Matisse Caravaggio inspired me with :
1. No identity 2. Dark background's 3. Use of light q=henri+matisse&biw=1366&bih=753&site=imghp&tbm=isch&t3A |
I was also inspired by Caravaggio. I love the skin tones that he used in this piece and how he gives an identity to the male that is painted in the canvas, which in my case I decided to just have the male body painted without an identity, I fee that this will add more mystery to my work. I chose no to have a face which is one of the first that we as humans notice in other humans . my work was simple not as complex as Caravaggio when it comes to details because he did used a lot of dark and light color to create his work.

Process
when I first started drawing the male body I did not know what I wanted t look like. I started drawing and I ended up with a male posing like a mode, after that it was easy adding the details because I already had the body outline and I was happy with the way that it was coming out. The outline was not perfect and the body was out of proportion but I new that I was going to be able to fix those errors with paint . Once I was done painting the body I had to go back a fix some small errors that I did while painting because the lighting of the paint was done incorrectly and my skills are very weak when it comes to knowing which side of the painting need to be dark or vise versa. I think that the back grown help a lot defining the male body and to making the center of attention. after all my painting did not come out as I was hoping because the color where too dark and did not look realist enough. But I think that can do a better job next time.

Reflection
now that I'm able to look back at my work I see a lot of things that I can improve. I think that I can use better paint to make my work look more realistic. I can fi x my lighting techniques as well as defining more the body. the background help by making the male boy more noticeable . Overall I can say that I'm proud of this piece because I feel that I can do much better . But something that came out just how I was expecting was the reaction of the audience, everyone felt weird looking at this piece and they did nothing but smile because this painting made some people feel uncomfortable because it was naked man.
