Time Standing Still by Steve Hanks available from Snow Goose Gallery.

 

As is often the case with Steve Hanks' nudes, there is sense of privacy expressed by his models, something he refers to as "introspective solitude.” His exceptional watercolor technique is the perfect medium for capturing the quality of light and shadow that is as much the subject of this painting as the woman.

 

"I like to consider those times when we make life's major decisions,” says artist Steve Hanks, "when we are alone with our thoughts, when we both confront and challenge ourselves. I titled this Time Standing Still because we all want time to stop when we experience beautiful moments in life, But life can never stop, except in art.”
