| Andrew Cowdell, Faux noir, oil on canvas |
Faux noir is one of my first large-scale monochrome oil paintings. It is a figurative composition exploring the language of clothing, a dialogue which can subtly emphasise qualities of personality and sentiment. The symbiosis of fashion and painting is a theme I enjoy seeking out in galleries, especially those containing portraits of the Second Empire and Impressionism. As art inspired fashion, so fashion served as a muse for art.
