cubist nude surrealist oil painting

This oil painting is based on my drawing ‘Nude – 17-06-15’. An artist often sees one thing in another. Salvador Dali saw a rhinoceros in Vermeer’s Lacemaker. I saw a horse in a women’s thigh.

A next session of my work in progress based on my drawing ‘Nude 17-06-15‘. After my last work in progress post August 13th 2019 I decided to add things. I got inspired by Skythians that spawned the legend of the Amazones.
