Alli Good - artist researched

Alli Good was conditioned to be modest and lady-like.
She paints drunk girls, lascivious nude women and a family who makes absinthe in the basement.

"What strikes me about Good's work is how intensely personal it feels. She paints corpulent, sometimes lascivious nude women who can be grotesque or funny or both and is clearly exploring feminist body image issues. "
Her discomforting imagery may arise from her own childhood experience of not fitting in or from a scenario she creates from her imagination. In either case, she challenges taboos. Not that Good takes herself too seriously.
