Art Students 1983

"Art Students" is a 1983 oil painting by Frank Mason, capturing the intimacy of a student art session. The composition centers on three figures: a female nude statue standing on a pedestal, a student sketching in a chair, and another student seated facing the viewer. The warm, dimly lit room adds to the sense of concentration and immersion in the artistic process, characteristic of Mason's style. This work reflects the artist's fascination with the human form and the act of creation.
