Sadly, outstanding watercolor artist Steve Hanks passed away a couple of years ago. I've noted his artistic expression, particularly his remarkable figure portraits, a few times -- you can search for his name. His portrayals of women were sensuous and captivating, without being overly erotic (but his models were amazing).
Regarding that, I happened to see the portrait (actually a photograph that looks like a painting) below at lowes.com, of all places. Its slightly titillating title is "Waiting for Love". I could say more, but I'll let the viewers decide for themselves if that's provocative or not. (And whether or not it should be.) The artist is "Kalynsky". And this one in particular reminds me of Steve Hanks' watercolors of women.
Lowes.com has some other "interesting" pieces for decoration. This one is entitled "Katrin".
But I was actually more interested in Kalynsky. There are a couple of other examples of his work available for sale online. I found this Instagram account (kalynsky_k) that has photography, and "Waiting for Love" is there, so this is the guy. And that's about all I have on him.
Lastly, these and other somewhat erotic art pieces appear to originate from "Trademark Fine Art", which you can't get into unless you have an access code. They market all kinds of art, and their clients include such high-end retailers as Lowes, Home Depot, and Walmart.
So if you do a Google image search with this combination:
"Trademark Fine Art" women
you'll get a broad (ahem) spectrum of depictions. But nothing as good as what Steve Hanks could do.
