Petrakova is perfectly folded and with the role of the model copes without effort. To facilitate the work, Anna took part in the photo shoot. The famous photographer Vladislav Elagin captured a naked artist in the poses necessary for writing new cavals. But the photos do not always give the desired effect, so Petrakova often has to be broken from the easel and look into the mirror.
- Anna, how did the original idea come to you - write yourself nude?
- Hardly this idea can be called original. He myself posed the scandalous famous Mexican artist Frida Kalo. But I will never work in her direction. I have little to write a nude woman lying on the bloody sheets and suffering because of the child's lost during childbirth. An image of a dead girl who has become the victim of the maniac, does not inspire me either. I am preventing nude. Works made in this genre should be gentle, beautiful and deprived of the vulnerable subtext and Chernukhi. There is nothing more perfect in the world than a nude woman, so I try to convert the beauty and attractiveness of her body as accurately as possible.
- From what age do you write nude?
- My first truly decent job I presented to the public to the public ten years ago. Most often I choose women's models. Because of this, journalists, greedy to fried facts, are constantly interested in my sexual orientation. I'm already tired of answering these questions. Women only inspire me for creativity, and men who will agree to pose without clothes, find not easy. True, lately, I often ordered portraits in a naked form, but I do not exhibit these works anywhere, I do not show anyone and not even photograph. I am paid not only for the ability to write, but also for complete confidentiality. Such pictures are usually hanging in the bedroom or give love.
- You have to pose naked in front of the mirror. Do not have discomfort, studying topless painting?
- I'm not standing in front of a cloth naked clock. When you need to "modify" the chest or hips, take the right posture and remember all the bends of the body. Picture pattern, face and details write dressed.
- Never have a desire to make yourself in the portrait brighter and sexier, increase the chest?
- Of course, it is possible to do it on canvas, but it will not happen real changes from this. Why deceive the viewer and myself? For some pictures, I can use my body, argued with huge breasts or luxurious hips, but then I am writing the face of another woman. In general, you need to love the one that you are.
- How many paintings do you present at the exhibition "Reflection and Reality"?
- I wanted them to be at least five to seven. I hope that I can handle the task. Now I am working on the creation of the series "Morning, day, evening, night." I willingly demonstrate two canvas from this cycle to your readers. Let them first appreciate my creativity.
