Kent Williams: Via Lactea
His Drawings and Paintings of the Artist Soey Milk
Text by Ryan Ebelt.
Over the past few years, Los Angeles–based painter Kent Williams (born 1962) has created multiple interpretations of the well-known artist Soey Milk, which this volume gathers and celebrates in gorgeous color plates. Williams' style is exacting and sensual; his depictions of Milk range from scenes of her semi-nude figure entwined in foliage or lively whorls of paint to depictions of her reclining, stretching, undressing or posing with other figures. As Ryan Ebelt writes in his essay for the volume, the works, made between 2012 and 2016, stand undeniably as a celebration of Soey Milk and the inspiration she has manifested, and stands as both a stimulating entry into Williams’ considerable oeuvre as well as a scintillating slice of the inspiration of the muse.
