Former YouTube star, and Instagram maestro, Federico Clapis knows technology and taboo. It shows in his work. Thus, my love for artist Federico Clapis – Italian Sculptor. His babies aren’t the polished perfection of society’s status quo. They sit inside stretched bellies.
Los Angeles painter, Randi Matushevitz reminds us badass babes are ageless. Her Ugly Portraits thrill me in a world buried behind cuteness filters. She creates these glorious messes with charcoal, pastel and spray paint.
War and death ruled Paul Klee’s life when he painted Death and Fire. Torn asunder by World War II and a seering case of scleroderma – Klee suffered while painting this. His pain shows.
