Description: Luis Carlos Rodriguez, Exceptionally Rare Original Botero Style Sensual Nude Woman Painting - Oil on Canvas Wrapped Board Artist and Painting Details: This is a striking female figure painting by famed Colombian painter Luis Carlos Rodriguez who is best known for his continuous line contour painting method and his self portraits full of luminous color and subtle tonalities which became the central theme of his work later in life. Combining watercolor and ink and incorporating his continuous line technique, his early work illustrates a mix of surrealism and realism that intricate and simple rendering it quite unique. The color richness and fine detail of his portrait oil work is quite striking. He painted several self-portraits which have cemented the painter’s prominent features and give us a glimpse into his cultural consciousness. Rodriquez gained much of his early art training at the famed National School of Fine Arts (La Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes de Colombia) in Bogota. He then moved to Mexico and continued his studies at the Academia de San Carlos, the first art academy in the Americas. There he took a keen interest in the work of the school’s most famous alum, José María Velasco, whose landscape and self-portrait paintings can be clearly seen as an influence in Rodriguez’ technique. Luis Carlos eventually moved to California where his paintings were the subject of exhibitions later in life. His work is featured in many galleries and museums throughout Central and South America and more recently, as his paintings have gain significant notoriety, they have become highly sought after by both individual and institutional collectors of Latin American fine art. This exceptionally rare painting has been compared to the iconic nudes of Amedeo Modigliani due to its sense of melancholy and the surreal modernist style of the master's work. Size is approximately 15 x 30 inches. It is an oil on canvas painting and the canvas was mounted on a board by the artist to secure and protect it.
