Since then he has been offering a view to the female body in a sexy, erotic, and unforgettable way. A meticulous, passionate and spiritual artist, Roger is said to found photorealism as a way of meditation by immersing himself in the work. His paintings are a heightened stimulation of the mind and body, a unique, spiritual, and mind-blowing experience. "There is more eroticism in the glimpse of an exposed knee or a revealed thigh than in a pair of opened legs." |
