As a creator, I’m interested in abnormality and its effects in human life. To make up this artwork, I made a research of people that live conjoined lives. I created the piece with deep respect and empathy towards these persons. — *The Bond. Study of a Portrait*

As a creator, I’m interested in abnormality, deformity and its effects in human life. The persons that lose one of their five senses or were born missing one of them call my interest. I explore and investigate their lives. This initial information helps me develop my work. I created this piece with deep respect and empathy for these persons. — *The Deaf Man 7*
*Digital painting and acrylic on paper*

In this particular artwork I want to emphasize the use of digital painting and its incredible resources. I invite you to watch the artwork's procedures at my YOUTUBE video channel: VERONICA HUACUJA - Veronica Fine Art. Hope you enjoy this artwork. — *Body Study 82*

People that lose one of their senses, were born missing one of them, or suffer mental instability call my attention as an artist. I investigate their lives using true video documentaries, photos, articles, etc. The initial information I gather helps me feel empathy for their conditions and for the artwork's creation. I made up this piece with deep respect for these persons. In this work, I used a mixed technique: oil and digital painting. I scanned a previous oil portrait artwork several days ago, and I accomplished the character's body. — *The Deaf Man 9*

One thing that calls my attention as a visual artist is the oeuvre of other artists. This time the work of the British photographer, John Coplans (1920-2003) amazed me. This work is base on his photo “Self Portrait: Torso With Large Upper Arm II", 1985. — *Body Study 62*

I attend to workshops where physical models pose to the participants, but during this Covid period, I haven’t had the chance to do so. So, what I do, among other activities, is remembering these past exercises, and draw/paint them by heart. In most of them I try to achieve the gesture. I invite you to watch a 1 min video where you can appreciate the process of the artwork at https://www.patreon.com/posts/45864748 — *Gesture 6*

In this portrait I looked forward to create the gaze of the male nudes to provoke an emotional response in the observer. This to include him/her in their tragic condition. I took this portraiture's principle of art from Rembrandt's "Syndics of the Drapers' Guild"*, where the characters stare at the observer and that action makes the latter participate in what's happening in the masterpiece. — *Bodies Study 63*

The artwork is a rushy acrylic painting with dramatic dark strokes. One of the things I try to portray is the dynamism of the figure. I title many of my works with abstract names without attending to the drama they show. This is an influence I have from the great 20th century painter, Francis Bacon. — *Body Study 67*

I attend workshops where I practice the human body with a physical model. Days after, I rehearse those exercises by heart. This activity is a warm up training, where I try to remember the original model exaggerating its gestures. I practice this previous activity using the digital or traditional techniques, such as acrylic on paper. This artwork is one result of these activities. — *Body Study 68*

These paintings operate in a diptych, which means they flow together to form a single unified scene with a narrative that bonds them. They search to have a strong sense of visual coherence. — *Two Studies for a Portrait 5*

Some of my artistic interests are dramatic scenes related to people being interviewed. I based this work on the fearsome illness known as schizophrenia. I captured various video stills from a true documentary where a doctor performs a collective interview to three patients. — *The Interview 5*

Creating Human Body Artwork

Thank you for visiting this Human Body Artwork Gallery. You're welcome!

I hope you enjoy this human artwork gallery where you'll find diverse paintings in different modalities: traditional (oil, acrylic on canvas or paper) and digital techniques. As I said in other occasions, because I’m an creator with interests in figurative art, one thing that calls my attention is the man (referring to the human species) and its precarious conditions (temporality, decay, illness...). So because of these reasons, the man is the central topic of my work.

Art Initial Resources

That said, as an artist-in every artwork–, I use all the resources I have in hand. This means that I indistinctly adopt the following resources: human models, digital photography, chronophotos (video stills), digital images, radiology image archives, clay and also digital sculptures (done in Blender). The aforementioned means that almost any media can be an initial resource for my work.

Main Art Topics

Therefore, the main art topics that I approach is the body structure and, sometimes I introduce the facial features. I explore the diverse ways to solve the artwork: front, three-quarter views, profile, in movement and in repose, etc.

Art Modalities

As I aforementioned, the modalities I explore are traditional techniques and digital painting (with a digital tablet, Photoshop, 3D sculpture in Blender, etc.).

The Art Process and Art Coaching

Finally, I invite you to find my artwork descriptions at patreon.com/veronicahuacuja where I explain its process, such as the learning goals, the material that I used to make up the work, my previous thoughts, technical tips, and more.
