Week of youth & ease

Red Conte on paper
Inspired by artists who never shy away when it comes to the figure—Namio Harukawa, Robert Crumb, and John Currin. Each of them exaggerated and distorted the body to explore power, desire, humor, and unease, allowing the figure to exist in excess rather than restraint.
approaching the female form from my own position—as a woman looking slowly, deliberately. I was interested in weight, softness, appetite, and confidence, not idealization. This drawing leans into pleasure and presence: a body aware of itself, comfortable taking up space, and fully at ease in its own gravity..
Week of Enigma

The word caricature comes from the Italian carico ("to load") and caricare ("to exaggerate"). It dates back to the 1590s, when the Carracci brothers-Agostino and Annibale-used it to describe playful pen drawings of exaggerated human heads, often shown in profile and lined up to show how features were pushed further and further.
The kind of caricature we recognize today is often credited to Gian Lorenzo Bernini. He was one of the first to exaggerate the features of real, recognizable people, turning satire into a strange kind of compliment. Kind of like a celebrity roast-if you were caricatured, it meant you were important enough to be noticed. - Henry Adams.
Week of Spirit

To speak fully about the horse in art and history would take far more than an IG post. Across time, the horse has carried our fears, desires, labor, power, and longing for freedom. It has been painted on cave walls, ridden into battle, honored in ritual, and mythologized again and again.
Years ago, I had a horse of my own. Living alongside that quiet strength changed the way I see these images. The horse stopped being a symbol and became a presence—breath, weight, trust. Something shared. What remains for me now is not the history alone, but the feeling of connection that continues to move through the work.
