About this artwork
I try not to work in series and to move from one subject to another but this followed straight on after “Sitting sideways with Alfie”. Same model, same chair, but different lighting. I could not resist this pose, which frequently gets adopted round here as my model consults her Ipad resting against her knee. I enjoyed the way the raised leg was locked by the foot resting on the other thigh.
The moment became charismatic as winter sunlight painted… great liquid swathes of light across her and the chair she sat on. These became the focus of my attention. I was taken by the contrast between the way the light caught the many wrinkles in the heavy woollen cardigan she is wearing and the smooth upholstery around her. I saw it as a throwback to Simone Martini and early mediaeval painting – complex folds heavily accented by shadows and highlights. There was also a little triangle of light catching the top edge of the Ipad.
