On October 13 Artmakessense will organize an online life drawing session inspired by the surrealistic paintings of Remedios Varo. Our beautiful model @werewolfmuse is fascinated by the art of Remedios Varo. can create fantastic surrealistic scenes and is a very fascinating art model. This summer we met her in London and we know she will fascinate artists with her dream and animal-like poses.
The Model: @awherewolfmuse
It is the first time we have awherwolfemuse modeling for artmakessenselife. We are intrigued by her way of expressing the complex variety of human states of being, both within movement and stillness.Her modelling is inspired by experimental dance and physical theatre and abstract and surreal art forms.Noami lives now in Litouwen. In this session she creates surrealistic poses using an animal skull, mirror, old telephone and strange plastic sculpture.

The inspirational artists: Remedios Varo
Remedios Varo Uranga (16 December 1908 – 8 October 1963) was a Spanish surrealist artist working in Spain, France, and Mexico.
Varo often painted images of women in confined spaces, achieving a sense of isolation. While Varo did not deem her own work as feminist.Varo's work redacts male interpretation of the female body. Her works focus on female empowerment and agency. The androgynous figures characteristic of her later work also challenge gender in that the figures do not fall neatly into gender normative categories. Later in her career, her characters developed into her emblematic androgynous figures with heart-shaped faces, large almond eyes, and the aquiline noses that represent her own features. Varo often depicted herself through these key features in her paintings, regardless of the figure's gender.Varo tends to not play out personal strife on the canvas but rather portrays herself in various roles in surreal dreamscapes.
