I have been entranced with Lucian Freud's work since I first saw his paintings a few (ahem) decades ago. The power of his brush strokes, the energy of his brush work, and the honesty of his vision. Somehow his work pushes away the superfluous "gloss" and unflinchingly shows the model in harsh honest light.
I strive to work with the honesty and energy of this master painter. What are you striving for in your work? Who is are the masters that inspire you?
