Jenny Saville


This painting by Jenny Saville caught my attention because this is one of her many nude paintings. Which allows me to see that she embraces nudity in thicker women. I am able to see that a lot of the women's face expressions give the impression that they are upset, unbothered or self conscience. However, Jenny finds a way to make them appealing in her paintings. Although, a lot of them seem to have a lot of sex appeal. I believe Jenny either admires women with this body figure and finds beauty them in a way. However, the face impressions can also speak of the body shaming thicker women go through. Since there is a way society portrays what a "beautiful" women should look like. I really like this painting and the way she used the skin coloring to match the background but still finds a way to make the body figure stand out.
