Original Artwork Zimou Tan Sitting Nude Oil Painting + Framed. Original Retail Value: $3,000

Design Plus Gallery presents a Original Zimou Tan Sitting Nude Oil Painting. Shadow and light are masterfully applied with a muted oil palette in neutrals and soft greens with umber. Nude male figure sits in a long pose study. Graduating from the San Francisco Art Academy in 2001, Zimou has gone on to receive international acclaim. Zimou specializes in portraiture not because it’s the most lucrative but because it is the most challenging, yet interesting because it requires great patience. Little evidence of wear, painting is in good condition. Custom framed with a rich chocolate brown wood stain. Painting is signed by the artist in the lower right corner.

“Zimou Tan was once asked by his student, “what is the difference between photography and painting?” His answer: photography is meant to capture a moment, and painting is meant to create a moment. They are different, but yet have the same purpose.”
