About Patrick Palmer

2Exhibitions

Generally considered one of the UK’s leading figure artists, specialising in the female form — subtle, classical nudes in oil, red chalk, graphite and charcoal.

My work has been included in the books 'Images of Women in Art' and 'Musings of Miss Yellow'.

Artwork

About this artwork

A free-flowing pencil study.

I love the emotion in this pose and have tried to simplify it down to its very essence - less is more.

If I'd filled it all in, the lower, less important parts would compete with the focal point (largely the facial expression and suggestion of pose).

I have tried to play down the unimportant parts, bringing focus to the pose and expression of effort with minimal detail.

The eye is drawn to the upper body and hands. And the brain - having been given just enough clues - fills in the rest. An example of 'less is more'.
