Abstract
The Anatomy Lesson is a series of large paintings, all oil on canvas, showing representations of paint. All works in this series are generated using a hybrid process involving lighting systems, long exposure photography and digital post-production techniques augmenting traditional painting processes. The artificial appearance of the works is an important factor in the reading of these paintings.
