John William Waterhouse (English, 1849-1917) – “Hylas and the Nymphs”, detail, 1896
The painting was created by John William Waterhouse out of his own wanting.The inspiration came from Waterhouse’s obsession with portraying a femme fatale.
The translucent water and the nude appearance of each nymph touches upon the gentle sexuality of these figures naked and alluring in the water. They are otherworldly to a point and Waterhouse manages to create a haunting sensuality in this painting by the identical looks of the nymphs

“I started painting as a hobby when I was little. I didn’t know I had any
talent. I believe talent is just a pursued interest. Anybody can do
what I do.”—Bob Ross

“I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I
thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone
just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I
would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me
too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know
that, yes, it’s true I’m here, and I’m just as strange as you.”—Frida Kahlo
