The matte painting (which can be translated with painting backgrounds) is a technique used mainly in film used to allow the representation of landscapes or places otherwise too costly or impossible to reconstruct or reach directly.
This photo titled "Splendour in the Grass" evokes several layers of sensuality, expressionism, and feminist themes. It captures a woman lying in the grass, bathed in soft sunlight. Her relaxed, almost dreamlike pose, with her head resting on her hand, highlights a natural, unforced sensuality. The greenery surrounding her and the vibrant colours create an intimate connection with nature, emphasising a raw and earthy allure. The soft focus adds a layer of romanticism, enhancing the overall sensual ambiance.
The expressionist elements of the photo are evident in the use of colour, light, and focus. The vivid green of the grass and the bright orange of her hair create a striking contrast that draws the viewer’s eye. This use of bold, expressive colours is reminiscent of expressionist art, where emotional experience takes precedence over realism. The slightly blurred, soft-focus effect adds emotional depth, suggesting a subjective experience rather than a literal depiction, inviting viewers to feel the scene rather than just see it.
From a feminist perspective, the photo celebrates the woman's autonomy and her harmonious relationship with nature. The casual, confident pose conveys a sense of freedom and self-assurance. Unlike traditional depictions of women in nature that often objectify, this image empowers the subject by presenting her in a state of comfort and ease, unburdened by societal expectations. The choice to portray her in a natural, uncontrived setting challenges conventional beauty standards and embraces a more inclusive, authentic representation of femininity.
The title "Splendour in the Grass" refers back to the 1961 film of the same name, which dealt with themes of repressed desire, societal expectations, and the innocence of youth. The photo echoes these themes through its depiction of natural beauty and the serene, contemplative mood of the subject. It suggests a longing for a simpler, more genuine connection with oneself and the world, free from the constraints imposed by society.
Expressionist artist Stephen B. Whatley turns Disney into Fine Art ……..a new tribute to Walt Disney's Donald Duck & Mickey Mouse. A throwback to the artist's childhood love of animated cartoons, the painting was inspired by the logo on a 1974 issue of the comic Donald & Mickey (IPC Magazines Ltd) - an edition which contains a letter written by the artist at the age of 9.
The work of Stephen B. Whatley, which has been published in TIME magazine, is in private collections worldwide; in public collections including BBC Heritage, The Royal Collection, London Transport Museum Newman University & Westminster Cathedral; and his 30 paintings commissioned by the Tower of London are permanently reproduced outside Tower Hill Station, London.
