Bikini Widow
This painting depicts a bikini-clad woman lounging on a light green chaise surrounded by a small table, an open book, a water bottle and two oranges. The artist draws his narrative scenes and characters from both his imagination and from real-world observation—including television and the internet. Tessier created this work in his signature style by applying casein paint directly to a primed metal sheet. The result is a beautiful low-luster sheen that highlights every brushstroke.

③ Artist:
Yves Tessier creates narrative images through his use of casein paint applied to aluminum and wood. For every scene, he draws from both his imagination and real-world observation, including what he sees on television and the internet. Tessier’s compositions are sometimes sensual and humorously erotic, while others are meditative and serene.
