Lisa Yuskavage, "Blonde Brunette and Redhead", 1995 1:12 scale piece
from Art Collection No. 2 for the Kaleidoscope House by Bozart.



".....colors on our world.
Lisa Yuskavages world is one of beauty that has lost proportions, that is spilling out of the body. Its a world with wishes of freedom and slavery. Its a world of restraint and exhibitionism. Of course, this is only a part of our world, a small part, but a beautiful one, and when so well crafted, it sweeps you away into it.

Lisa Yuskavages work is about desire: a disturbing melange of portraits of babylike women residing in a world of lush, saturated colors that bely a dark psychological space just this side of the fetishistic. On lurid grounds of greens, pinks, purples, and aquas her figures often emerge apparitionally-flesh, clothing, and hair delineated through shadows and light in a disconcerting blurring of boundaries. With striking intensity, these childlike women both attract and repel with their frank and seductive psychosexual power. (Faye Hirsch)

from:
an amazing link to her astonishingly pretty nudes--I LOVE Lisa Yuskavage's P.O.V.--so interesting.

She must be painting in something like egg tempra--i swear her technique is bodacious--soft evocation of deep emo like Vermeer or the Cocteau Twins.
