The Painter

Using an oversized mop, the painter ironically smudges and stains nearly every surface she encounters, including her own clothing. Her movements and her studio uniform are economic and work-like, showing precision and pragmatism. Renée Levi paints two canvases lightning quick, revealing her process and her studio manner. We also see a drawing by the artist’s daughter that hangs on the studio wall, it is of a smiling little girl astride a horse that is taking a dump.
