Charlotte Gibson is a contemporary English painter with a BA in fine arts who also happens to be a latex fiend, and enjoys painting some of her favorite outfits.
Latex for me, is the best material to work with. I love the highly reflective surface and vivid colours combined with some transparancy when pulled tightly over curves. Realistically recreating these textures and colours is my challenge and I feel that acrylics help to heighten the shine and sexiness within the paintings.
Most paintings begin as photographs of the artist modeling her clothing. What I find refreshing about Charlotte’s work are the unique angles and composition in each latex painting. I also appreciate the more creative and colorful latex that she chooses to highlight, and the painterly aspect of each piece–these are fetish paintings which can really stand on their own merit, outside of the narrow fetish scope!

The title “pokeherdot” for the picture is just too kinky :-)
And if you look at the “Boot Camp” picture, she even painted the cute transparent mask.
But my all-time favourite is “Violet” for its simplicity, while still maintaining a distinct erotic touch.
