Renoir: "It gives my brain a rest, painting flowers"

"It gives my brain a rest, painting flowers. I don't feel the same tension as when I have a model in front of me. When I paint flowers, I put on colours and try out values boldly, without worrying about wasting a canvas. I wouldn't dare to do it with a figure; I'd be afraid of spoiling the whole thing. And the experience I gain this way is then applied to my pictures" - Pierre-Auguste Renoir.

Lennette Newell | Body art photographer

Naturalist fashion photographer Lennette Newell channels a lifelong passion for Earth’s biodiversity and the magical wonder of the natural world into compelling animal portraits that afford viewers an intimate glimpse of creatures large and small. Having grown up on the high plains of western Nebraska as the daughter of a veterinarian and cattleman, Lennette creates images that explore the innate connections between subject and photographer, the common ties between the world of humans and that of animals.
Newell’s black-and-white photographs are simultaneously stark in composition yet rich in detail. Again and again, the viewer comes face to face with animal subjects that display an unexpected emotionality that lends new insight into the inner lives of these creatures.
