Venus symbolizes love, beauty and fertility. Venus was born of the Sea.
Venus inspired many great artists, such as The Birth of Venus by Botticelli or Venus of Urbino of Titian.
My Venus Anadyomene is a fat Venus, whose voluptuous figure links to Titian's Venus.
After Manet's Olympia, the classical nude fell out of artistic favour. Nude figures, like the Greece or Roman goddesses, became scarce and were replaced by naked figures, such as a contemporary prostitute who usually wears clothing.
My paintings are about goddesses and the classical beauty of the female nude.
