Thanks, everyone, for your comments! Traveller, here is what Vikas says about minimalism in his introduction:
* Minimalism is a form of art in which objects are stripped down to their elemental, geometric form, and presented in an impersonal manner.
* Minimalism is a world where "less is more".
* Minimalism strives to reduce reality to the "least/barest" essential elements.
* A minimalist image is very "simple" and "uncluttered" to the eye.
* Minimalism is the use of the fewest and barest essentials or elements.
As a figure study this is pretty minimal, simple, uncluttered, elemental, geometric and even a bit impersonal. The only thing it isn't is reduced to its "barest" elements ! Lol, the shirt stays on. Your reaction to it leads me to believe that "less is more." I believe it to be minimal, what do you think? ~Sharon

elips, this is a great breast, dare I use the phrase, Great and Suculent....lol. I always thought that I'd give this one of my votes, because I really like...breasts....lol...and this one is particularly nice.

Still, is it minimalism?

Hummmm...I am open to argument on the subject.

Best wishes, Traveller

Thanks, Armin. This one is cropped slightly differently to make it more minimal. ~Sharon
