Jane Hughes
It's Curtains
Come Hither
This overarching title of these recent paintings (Tuck in, Wait there, It's Curtains and Leave it Out) reflects the weight of societal expectations on women to be desirable. The women in these paintings are in the bedroom, some in revealing clothes with gestures which could imply sexual availability, but their expressions cannot be misread. They are not prizes to be passed around, and they will not be weighed down.
