Epic Mirtiotissa Curator's Mix

High waves, time, and one steep hill stand between artist Paul Beel and his monomaniacal quest to paint a large-scale group portrait on a secluded nudist beach in Greece as he fulfils the travel award from the BP Portrait competition at the National Portrait Gallery in London. The Curator's mix is a cut from the original hour-long adventure. For mature viewers.

@PuppyZwolle I've switched the icon, but youtube doesn't seem to want to change it. On my page its changed, but no where else.

PS: The icon for this video is rather provocative by YouTube standards. ;^)

Fantastic!

Congratulation (cause I had not done so yet).

How a decorated artist paints bare nudity. Now that in itself is inspiring. ;^)

I have seen some of this before but this context (or even contextS) sure makes it a near epic story. I'd go so far as to call this; The latest in Greek Mythology. The wasp must have been a messenger from Hera.

The paintings are pretty awesome as well. ;^)
