[Oil Painting, Artistic Nude], 30 by 40 in, (76 by 102 cm),
I.V. Passmoore, 1992

-French in the sense of functional origin and extent: frequently exposed on nude beaches, Charles acquired an expansive bronze complexion. The French are known for their liberal beaches.

Series Description: In Jersey City, I found it prohibitively expensive to employ female nude models, but males eagerly volunteered free of charge. One of my models led me to Glastonbury, CT, 2nd Roach Pond, ME, and the Adirondacks of NY.
