ODC - Intentional Blur
If you look closely you can see Shizandra's face. It reminds me of something Amedeo Modigliani might paint. I moved the camera up and down to give this blur effect.

Jeanne Hébuterne is best known for being the frequent subject and common-law wife of Amedeo Modigliani. But her story with the famous artist is one of the most tragic love stories of the art world.
Jeanne was a beautiful girl, famous of her long and thick her. She was introduced to the artistic community in Montparnasse by her brother André Hébuterne who wanted to become a painter. She met several of the then-starving artists including Tsuguharu Foujita for whom she modelled.
However, Jeanne with her talent for drawing wanted to become an artist too and chose to study at the Académie Colarossi. It was there in the spring of 1917 that Jeanne Hébuterne was introduced to Amedeo Modigliani. He was a handsome man, and attracted much female attention. Jeanne began an affair with him and the two fell deeply in love. She soon moved in with him, despite strong objection from her parents.
Life with Modigliani must have been hard. He was an alcoholic and a drug addict. His escalating intake of drugs and alcohol may have been a means by which Modigliani masked his tuberculosis from his acquaintances, few of whom knew of his condition. The writer Charles-Albert Cingria described Jeanne as gentle, shy, quiet, and delicate. In the fall of 1918, the couple moved to the warmer climate of Nice on the French Riviera where Modigliani’s agent hoped he might raise his profile by selling some of his works to the wealthy art connoisseurs who wintered there. While they were in Nice, their daughter was born. The following spring, they returned to Paris and Jeanne became pregnant again.
On 24 January 1920 Amedeo Modigliani died of tuberculosis. Jeanne Hébuterne’s family brought her to their home but Jeanne threw herself out of the fifth-floor apartment window the day after Modigliani’s death, killing herself and her unborn child. Her family, blamed her demise on Modigliani and at the beginning interred her in the Cimetière de Bagneux. Nearly ten years later the family relented and allowed her remains to be transferred to Père Lachaise Cemetery to rest beside Modigliani. Her epitaph reads: “Devoted companion to the extreme sacrifice.”

On January 24, in 1920, Modigliani's wife jumped from a fifth floor window,after the death of her husband. She was pregnat.
Done with Paintex X3, this was the style I was triying to achieve when I first pick up the software, like a real strokes effect. Gotta practice a lot more, this one looks too conventional.
My lady is a collage of 3 Modigliani's. Let's hope Modigliani forgives me. I surely had fun!! Background from my own stash.

Jeanne Hébuterne is best known for being the frequent subject and common-law wife of painter Amedeo Modigliani. But the back story of their relationship is powerful and tragic.
Modigliani was an Italian, living in Paris, who achieved no real fame in the art world while he was alive (but that did come later). He would die from tuberculosis at the age of 35 in 1920. He met Hébuterne, a 19-year old French Art Student in 1917, and they began an affair, had a child, and moved to Nice. Two days after Modigliani's death - she threw herself out of her parent's Paris apartment's fifth-story window - at eight months pregnant - and killed herself and her second but unborn child. Well...
This portrait of Jeanne Hébuterne hangs in the Guggenheim. I knew nothing of any of this or of Modigliani before this painting stopped me in my tracks. Very simple and yet it just reached out and grabbed you. Definitely one of my favorite pieces in the building.
L´home estatic / Pau Riba ( again )
"Esta es una crisis global. Y la más importante es la crisis de valores. Tengo que reconocer que estoy absolutamente escandalizado, por ejemplo, con el hecho de que el premio Nobel de la Paz, el señor Obama, entre en un país que no es el suyo, que se llama Pakistán, y asesine a Bin Laden – que sería muy malvado, seguro – pero que no fue juzgado. Es de la Edad Media. Y que 50.000 norteamericanos salgan a la calle a aplaudirlo demuestra que estamos muy mal."

Sol de llauna, cel de glaç
dins el calaix d'un armari,
draps de dona i un infant
amb un regust enigmàtic,
ve de néixer, està sorprès,
té uns grans ulls Modigliani,
absents, tristos, verds i oberts
i una vida fins que els tanqui.
És l'home estàtic, la tristesa el té corprès,
les orenetes faran nius als seus cabells.
Quan ja té tres anys no surt
a empaitar les papallones,
quan un gos lladra no fuig
i els vestits paguen la broma,
quan la neu remou el cel,
ell la mira en lloc de córrer
i li'n queda el rostre ple
com les estàtues de Roma.
És l'home estàtic, la tristesa el té corprès,
les orenetes faran nius als seus cabells.
Més grandet troba un ocell
a sobre d'ell, a dalt d'un arbre,
ell no es mou i un excrement
li fa blanc a mitja cara,
troba la nina d'un ull
i la voldria per companya
però no la mira ni acull
i la nina se'n va a França.
És l'home estàtic, la tristesa el té corprès,
les orenetes faran nius als seus cabells.
Una noia li ofereix un clavell per la solapa,
ell se'l mira però no el pren
i el clavell se l'endú un altre,
un estiu quan ell ja és gran,
l'amor ve amb tres candidates,
ell les mira afalagat
però l'amor té pressa i marxa.
És l'home estàtic, la tristesa el té corprès,
les orenetes faran nius als seus cabells.
Un bonic dia d'abril
tot són flors i ell les olora
però surt l'amo d'un jardí
i li fa una cara nova,
descobreix que no està bé
i vol dir-ho a una senyora,
la senyora no l'entén
perquè és mestra d'una escola.
És l'home estàtic, la tristesa el té corprès,
les orenetes faran nius als seus cabells.
Han passat anys, s'ha fet gran
i assegut davant la porta
i esperant l'enterrament
d'aquell de la cara nova,
cel de vidre, lluna d'or
dins d'un caixó sense potes
jeu el cos d'un home mort
ningú riu i ningú plora.
És l'home estàtic, la tristesa l'ha matat,
les orenetes d'ell, mort, fred, han emigrat.

German postcard. VEB Progress-Filmvertrieb, Berlin. Photo Progress Nr. 1271. Gérard Philipe and Lilli Palmer in Montparnasse 19/The Lovers of Montparnasse (Jacques Becker/Max Ophüls 1958), a biopic on the last year of painter Amedeo Modigliani.
Legendary idol of the French cinema Gérard Philipe (1922–1959) was adored for his good looks, but he was also a very talented actor. He played roles as diverse as Faust and Modigliani and he was sought out by France's preeminent directors for his versatility and professionalism. German actress and author Lilli Palmer (1914 –1986) appeared in French, British, American and German films. The charming and elegant film star won such prestigious awards as the Coppa Volpi in Italy, the Deutscher Filmpreis, and she was nominated twice for a Golden Globe Award.

last 12 July(Modiglianis birthday) me and my friends went in roof and paint his portrait ... and we decide that it will be our tradition !
Modigliani began his celebrated series of thirty reclining nudes in 1916. Languorously sprawled across a dark couch, the model is characteristically shown close up and from above. Although rooted in the Renaissance depiction of Venus, his eroticized nudes are devoid of mythological or allegorical references
