Wesselmann began composing his Mouths paintings in 1965. From that time on, the artist worked in oils to capture the most complex, immensely enlarged details.
He further perfected the shaped canvas process. In 1967, a glimpse of his friend and model Peggy Sarno lighting a cigarette during a break triggered the Smokers series, with often imposing billows of smoke. Standing in front of Smoker #8, based on a photograph of Danièle Thompson smoking, challenges the viewer.
