Check out the Gen Y Voyeuristic paintings of,
MARK TENNANT
American b. 1951
In his on-going series, Tennant brings us "up close and personal" into the quasi-houseparty nightlife of these mischievous teenage ladies. He paints with a confident hand, using bold spontaneous brush work with a chiaroscuro style approach. His angled compositions are juxtaposed seemingly as simple Polaroid "candids". All of these interesting oddities give them their voyeuristic beauty. No doubt his best work, hope he continues this series. #NAUGHTYBUTNICE
