Lucian Freud: The Painter's Etchings


MoMA.org | Exhibitions | 2007 | Lucian Freud: The Painter's Etchings

these etchings are amazing - I'm intrigued by the "sketchy-ness" of them with every line showing in the finished piece. I think I like his etchings more than his paintings because of the simplicity of lines without all the texture and color. His paintings have always been almost too realistic for me - they make me a little uncomfortable because they are so real and because the models he uses are regular people. Of course, his work is incredible and very inspiring for the same reasons it makes me uncomfortable... hmmmm
