Artemisia Gentileschi (1593 – c. 1656), Allegory of Inclination

"In 1612, Michelangelo Buonarroti ... commissioned Artemisia Gentileschi to paint a mural. For this, her first-ever commission, Gentileschi painted Allegory of Inclination, a painting of a female nude that hung on the ceiling of the gallery. But a few decades later, the nude figure was altered by the addition of blue drapery painted over the figure to cover her private parts."

I hope Artemisia Gentileschi knows that her version of Judith Beheading Holofernes fucks 100x harder than Caravaggios.

Love ya, girl ❤️

Fabric Study

Taking a break from hammering on sequential art for something completely different.

Fabric shape and drapery isn’t among my current strong points—nor is digital painting frankly—so I figured I should really sit down and let my brain puzzle over it with a masters study. It feels like doing math. Hopefully less so, the more I keep doing it.

Picking the colors to match was a good exercise in color relativity. I liked how the original artist used pure black to outline and define the subject in the very darkest parts of the painting. It’s an interesting technique.

Studied (very inaccurately) from Judith Beheading Holofernes by Artemisia Gentileschi (1620)

i'm writing an essay about gentileschi's judith slaying holofernes and while it's specifically about her painting and it's relation to judaism as a whole and womanhood as an identity, i have another essay brewing in my head about caravaggio's painting of the same scene in contrast to hers. the essay has already been written by so many people (women) but wow do i have so many thoughts and feelings about it

Thinking about her again…
