The Fallen Figure

Monica works a classical figure across the thigh in soft sepia and grey, then cuts the realism with hard black line work that loops through the composition. She sets the large poppy low on the leg and the smaller tulips up top, so the eye travels down the thigh as the collector stands. The line work is doing structural work rather than decoration here: it frames the figure and ties the separate blooms into one design. By Monica Snyder.
