FIGURE 2 2013 “The paintings of women’s bodies in the FIGURES Series are some of my favorites. Drawn from memory with an abstract, gestural technique, I model the form. The absence of natural color defines the art, to elevate the figure from merely a nude. Each abstract nude painting displays emotion and energy and quiet beauty.” - Kim McAninch
