The Sitter, Not The Artist by Andrea Vecchiato

 

 

"Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter." Oscar Wilde

 

 

Andrea Vecchiato reverses the aforementioned Wilde quote for the name of his new exhibit, The Sitter, Not The Artist. Presented at London’s The Gallery Soho between October 25 and November 2, the exhibit features 30 original nude portraits that Andrea took of celebrities and a few models. The profits from the print sales will be donated to the National Autistic Society.

 

 

The sitters include Tom Hardy (aka the Inception hottie) , Dominic Cooper, Lee Ryan, Rupert Evans, Stephen Hagan, Sam Webb, Josh Parkinson, Jake Davies and Oliver Cheshire. Andrea will be revealing more names on his twitter.
