Painter Mark Schwartz Reveals Women’s Secret Desires with New Series: Portraits of Women and Their Shoes
Tampa, FL (PRWEB) September 11, 2013 -- Mark Schwartz’s new series of paintings, Portraits of Women and Their Shoes, pushes the boundaries of sexuality, attitudes, aesthetics, and social status. A woman’s relationship with her shoes can be deeply personal, intimate and, in some cases, lustful; Schwartz masterfully captures the essence of these feelings in his most intimate collection of portraits to date.
Selected items from this arousing collection are available to preview at http://www.highheeledart.com. The long-celebrated protégé of Andy Warhol continues to shock and inspire through fashion and modern art. His iconic shoe paintings have earned him a reputation as one of the most compelling pop artists of the twentieth century.
“Shoes provide the foundation for the image that a woman wants to broadcast to the world. Every woman can change that message every day or more if she chooses. Shoes are an extension of a woman’s mood, and should be observed and documented accordingly." - Mark Schwartz

His longtime celebrity clients (including Oprah Winfrey, Sharon Stone, Katie Couric, Madonna and Natasha Richardson) hold a personal fascination for his insightful, evocative and playful works.
