It's not pin-up it's art!

OK for a few weeks I've been noticing that the vintage clothes shops and retro "Boutiques" in Manchester [Who I think may share a wholesaler because they all seem to get the same stuff at the same time] have been displaying old prints of this lithe lovely. Then as soon as they appeared they all [But one] disappeared.
I think she's majorly hot, I mean MAJORLY hot! So I thought I'd see if images were available on line but googling "Hot black chick in pink bikini +oil painting" didn't bring her up. My boyfriend reckoned she was by the bloke who did the notorious and to me deeply scary "Chinese girl with green face" but she didn't come up when I searched for his paintings. Yesterday I spotted a lone print of her in one of the stalls at Afflecks Palace and saw that it was signed J.H.Lynch. Not for sale though. When I got back I tried again and found her. She is the "Water Nymph" [Nympho I like to think] but very little is known about the artist, he only gets 4 lines on Wikipedia and other sites show some dispute about his name, an urban myth that he was a Nun from New Zealand and a story that towards the end of his life he destroyed most of his work or gave it to charity.
I'm pleased I've found her on line, apparantly this girl who appears in several of his paintings was known as Tina- she looks like a Tina!- and I reckon it's really erotic. I especially like her taut abs and the way a ripple is reflected onto her right abs just where her lady-four pack nips in towards her navel.
