Origin
Using a different contemporary approach to the first in this series of nudes, I have featured the above nude as a Polynesian woman from the South Pacific, against a minimal and bare landscape setting. I have used a vertical / horizontal format.

The pose is an abstract, simplified form, somewhat totem-like, but at the same time showing the model as an icon of Oceania.

The colours of the landscape are subdued, to lend prominence to the warm brown tones of the nude.

This work, like all the nudesin this gallery, evolved from a life drawing, which I still have today.
