My painting Christophe 3 is on the cover of Christophe Nayel: Art Model Tribute .
At The Art Students League , Minerva's Drawing Studio, and other venues in New York City, Christophe's poses went well beyond the classical tradition and made us think about portraiture and the human form in fresh new ways. He specialized in facial expressions, dynamic gestures, and costumes that reflected our evolving ideas about masculinity and gender.
Sadly, Christophe passed away in July 2020, but his innovative spirit, unfailing good humor, and dedication to his craft will continue to inspire us all.
