Sitting Nude, original oil painting by Bao Cheng Zhao
I am usually not a fan of the nude paintings that proliferate today's Chinese oil paintings. I know that the reason that so many artists make nudes is that Chinese men like to buy them, not because they are good paintings, necessarily, but because they are pictures of naked women.
Sitting Nude, original oil painting by Bao Cheng Zhao
I am usually not a fan of the nude paintings that proliferate today's Chinese oil paintings. I know that the reason that so many artists make nudes is that Chinese men like to buy them, not because they are good paintings, necessarily, but because they are pictures of naked women.
Thus, when I do choose nudes to display in the gallery, it is because I have found something or another that attracts me to the composition of the piece. Indeed, we have seen a larger number of Cheng's recent nudes, but we have chosen only two for the gallery. The pose is more modest than sexual, although the modesty is not overdone but simply feminine. The composition is more abstract, even with the running paint that I have been seeing in many painting, lately. It also has little dashes of abstract flowers, dotting the canvas to emphasize the femininity of the piece.
