Ripping of the Stars Painting

Ripping of the Stars I like to work with this model. Sitting in front of me he tells me his story. Watching away from me, and thinking about what's going on in his life, what's going on at all, and what it is worth living for. Just like, as the title of the song where I got the quote from, says, what all the (young) dudes do. I like to paint skin, the nude. This young man fascinated me since we met. Very eager and always 'an open book'. The way he his modeling tells a story, confidence, warmth, being and friendship. Someone who is nude shows me, there is nothing to hide, I am what I am and I am fine with it. The title is from the Bowie song 'All the young Dudes'. (According to an interview Bowie gave to Rolling Stone in 1973, the dudes are carrying the same news that the newscaster was carrying in the song Five Years from Ziggy Stardust; the news being the fact that the Earth had only five years left to live. Bowie explains: “All the Young Dudes is a song about this news.)
