Mina Smith Segal
Artist's Reception- Friday February 10th, 7pm-9pm
“The Big Nudes”
Why is the nude important? To paint the nude enables
me, the artist, to show the subtle nuances in form and
color in a subject because of its greater complexity
is superior to any other. My goal is to challenge myself
to make my paintings close to life size and to make
them genuine and essential to the subject. By using
the most basic of materials - a brush, pure color and
water - I feel I can study art in what I believe is
a way that will most help me progress in my abilities
as an artist.
