This painting is from a very strategic modeling session. My wife and I planned out each pose based on our favorite figurative paintings throughout art history. This pose was taken from The Toilet of Venus ( aka ‘The Rokeby Venus’) by Diego Velasquez (1599 - 1660), 337 years before I painted this!

About:

Feralo is the creative portfolio of Noah Spahn. Spahn is a painter with degree in Studio Arts from Biola University, a deep interest in several marked periods of Art History, and Artists ranging from Caravaggio to Immendorf.

His work is typically a veiled glimpse into some facet of his current musings. The mediums used vary as much as their application, whilst the human form is generally the vehicle. Themes may include transcendental aesthetics or the rejection of visceral urges amidst the complexities of commonplace social environs. He has also been known to produce the occasional 'automatic painting', the interpretation of which probably lies in the realm of his unconscious.

During his 25 year career as an Artist, Spahn has worked as a commissioned limner, 3D modeler, architectural draftsman, aerosol muralist, portraitist, graphic designer, creative consultant and advertising director.
