I like the way her legs are drawn..
The best part about this picture for me was that when I glanced at it last night, I thought that it was only the top part of a woman’s body, but today after looking at it for longer than the 10 seconds I had given it yesterday.. I saw what is meant in this picture.. She is a complete and erotic work of art.. portraying femininity both in an innocent and sexual way..
wonderful..

Another image with a woman in a strange position.
it seems to me that all the answers go in this direction= strange, upside dowun position.
The question is: do you really think we are so complicated Mr. Coelho?
we could talk about it.
Have a nice day.

Wrapped up in the light as though it were a warm, soft blanket. What makes her glow as this? Could this be the lingering luminosity of a lovers’ tryst. Makes me wonder what lies just outside the frame of this photo? What unseen face escapes the gaze of the beholder?

What is that bracelet on her right hand, it looks like the black string I have on my right hand…

I sometimes do that with my hands… inter tangle them above my head!

But my breasts are not as big as hers! :D

Dear all,

“I have been accused of being a joker. But the most successful art to me involves humor.” (Undated interview, circa 1970s; published in Man Ray: Photographer, 1981.)

God bless you all !

I am back. Something else I want to mention.
His epitaph – it’s a beauty – “Unconcerned but not indifferent.”
I really like Your “My favorite Artists, painters, whatever” Paulo
it stretches my mind and make me appreciate the art. Thank you.

Man Ray – 1890-1976
Born Emmanuel Radmitzky
“I do not photograph nature, I photograph my visions.”
Pretty versatile.

“a painter, filmaker, poet, essayist, philosopher and leader of American modernism”
American Dada and surrealist.
“Dada – an attempt to create work so absurd it confused the viewers’ sense of reality.”…..:)
Amongst his friends: Pablo Picasso Hemingway, Dali, Joyce, Kiki de Montparnasse.

It is interesting to see the talent of all this people.They dab onto all sort of areas. and the attraction with Paris too is noticeable……Ah la douce France.
Love
