Artist Notes on Persephone Bound
Persephone Bound is a shibari-themed oil painting exploring contrast between restraint, grace, and presence.
I pushed theatrical mood and shape tension here—keeping the image sensual and dramatic while holding the structure with clear value design.
Shibari themed painting of a popular Tokyo figure model Persephone. Based off of a pose from the Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School, Tokyo event.
