a few months ago a friend of mine asked me to be the centerpiece/model of a painting of hers. she's an art student, and this is part of her portfolio for grad school.

    it's supposed to be a modern recreation of Rembrants "Anatomy Lessons of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp"

    It's great! Hey, how many people can say they are immortalized in a work of art?!

    In the picture, are you being built or pulled apart?

    Pretty cool! I like the subject matter, and it's a pretty big undertaking trying to remake a Rembrandt. It seems to be a pretty good likeness.

    Also reminds me of Thomas Eakins' paintings of Dr. Gross and Dr. Agnew. Although in The Agnew Clinic I think the subject having surgery is a woman...
