- Summary
- New York-based artist Will Cotton is best known for his large-scale portraits of female nudes in candy-coated dreamlike landscapes. Hi landscapes are composed of fondant frostings, peppermint sticks, marshmallows, and cotton-candy clouds often inhabited by languidly posed females. His work is formally resonant with the influences of seventeenth-century rococo paintings, the nudes of Bouguereau and Cabanel, and the classic American pin-ups of George Petty and Alberto Vargas. His figures are often inspired by models such as burlesque performers and fellow artists from the art, film, and music worlds. This book includes his work in all mediums: prints, drawings, canvases and public events.
