that would be awsome ^_^ I'd really appreciate that. It's hard to research art and artists from other countries coz I'm in Australia and when I get to a site with the info, quite often I'll get not available in your region messages. I've kinda been discouraged by it. We don't really get that much art info here, which sucks.

I finally found him, but my memory wasn't quite accurate. The artist of whom I was thinking was Tom Wesselmann, who painted a number of nude women in the 1930s, emphasizing details on lips and floral centers (placed always on tables). The idea of emphasizing certain parts of the figure to convey an idea was there, but his results and concepts are much different from your own.

    Wow, that sounds awsome! Thank you so much for taking the time to search that artist. I should be able to do some research now that I have a name. He sounds very interesting. Worship

      Smile If you are going to search his work, a word of warning - some of it is fairly explicit. I recommend his painting "The Great American Nude" for a more tame start.
