Hello fellow artisans,
Let me introduce myself to your community.
My name is James Dean Taylor. I have been creating art all my life just like everyone else.
If you know it or not, you have. Though in an addition to being a potter for almost 25
years, I have taken up sculpture, initially conceived in clay, for the last 3 1/2 years.
My theme is the classic nude for the love of the nude and the challenges that it brings. I
have faced a few thus far in many arenas. I feel that through these “challenges”, one can
learning to become effective in ones passions in the greater. For whatever that may my be.
I feel society has a sublime underlying need for the nude. As a foundational grounding rod
in a chaotic emotional storm of the misused, abused or misunderstood social dispute of
our natural form as a human being. The nude is a root from which to grow from. The nude
gives us strength in our own familiar in romance, passion, social/political, religious and
individual understanding.
When I experience a well executed nude in any medium, through it I feel emotionally
relaxed and brings strength of meaning to other things.
I feel the purpose of the nude is our own. As an artist, one should never be influenced by a
social pressure or prejudice. To freely express is what we do best. Unless, in part, this
artist is providing for his family. Yet another topic for the figurative nude artist. This is a
worthy topic to explore in its own.
For my personal boredom of the hum-drum of this industrial world that we nurture, I am
glad to have a resting place to discuss real artistic questions, comments, thoughts and
practices.
Dimensionally yours,
JT
