Peter Wayne, research director of the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. “The slowness that you see from the outside can be deceptive,” says Dr. But this exercise program is far more dynamic than it looks. Watching the gentle, graceful movements of this ancient Chinese practice, it’s hard to imagine that tai chi can burn off a single calorie or strengthen muscles. I thank you all for indulging me, following me and giving me your loving support.Compared to the pumping intensity of spin or Zumba, a tai chi class looks like it’s being performed in slow motion. Finally, I spend hours in Photoshop, bumbling around with my self-taught "painting skills" (the heads of any bona fide PS experts would likely explode if they watched me work lol), attempting to heighten the illusion of Real Life. Then, I do my best to develop artful lighting - usually a combination of EEP/WL and Lumipro (my constant SL photo companion). First, I painstakingly create the pose (thank you Black Dragon Poser!). On a technical level, these studies represent many long hours of loving labor. For those who are atheist or agnostic, please take a moment to acknowledge your own perfection. For those of you who are followers of religion, well, god created us. Rather, my desire is to celebrate the beauty we all possess. Certainly far from "porn", in my estimation.
#Tai contra 5 series#
This series is not intended to be erotic. Including what some people perceive as the "naughty bits" (don't get me started on America's Puritanical roots which dog us to this day.grrr). You've probably guessed by now that I love the human form. It's been a while since I did one of these Nude Studies. In 1950 Fritz Klimsch was awarded the Große Bundesverdienstkreuz and died that same year. After the war the artist settled in the Black Forest to live in seclusion, producing from then on only a few works in small formats. Appointed to the Akademische Hochschule für bildende Künste in 1921, he retired in 1935 after heading the master class studio there. In 1912 he became a member of the Prussian Academy of the Arts and in 1916 a senator of the Academy. He did a great many portraits of distinguished representatives of cultural and political life, including Ludwig Thoma, Lovis Corinth, Max Liebermann, Max Slevogt and Paul von Hindenburg.
Klimsch was subsequently extraordinarily successful with portraits, monuments and funerary sculpture as well as female nudes. Travels to Italy and Greece shaped his style. In 1898 Klimsch founded the Berlin Secession jointly with Max Liebermann and Walter Leistikow and was represented on a regular basis at the exhibitions the group mounted. Hildebrandt supplemented Rodin's liveliness with tectonics and statics, thus creating the balance Klimsch felt was so important to his own sculpture. Klimsch regarded Adolf von Hildebrand as second only to Rodin as the inspiration behind his art. On his wedding trip to Paris, Klimsch became acquainted with Rodin's work, which greatly impressed him with its liveliness of form and expression and left a lasting influence on him. While still a student, the young sculptor produced his first important work, winning awards and his first experience of official recognition. From 1887-1890 he was a pupil of Fritz Schaper's.
Fritz Klimsch trained at the Königliche Akademische Hochschule für die bildenden Künste in Berlin in the drawing class taught by the painter Ernst Hancke and in the modelling class under Albert Wolff.
