I've modeled for painters: not nude though... I don't think I could do that.

I used to do a lot of sketching and have sketched nudes: two were models and another was this Pisces male friend I had.

The men were easier to draw. The female was obese and she was VERY difficult to draw.

How funny!! I never wondered their sign! Just wondered how they had the courage to get naked like that and be comfortable.

Could you see yourself modeling nude?



Takes an incredible amount of courage to be completely naked as she was. I could not do it!

I don't think pole dancing is comparable to still life painting is it?

The difference is, the first one involves dirty old/young men staring at your naked body

The second one is a group of artists creating a piece of artwork




Agree, there's nothing sexual about it. It's not easy either....so you're so concentrated, you forget she's really there in the flesh....

Blegh!! Taken art classes but no nude models. There'd be no way for a nude model to come in and me not laugh at it. 😆




Shit, what, I wanted to laugh, I mean it's hard to keep it serious.... I did though, surprisingly enough. I hope they bring in a male model, not gonna lie!

I'm sorry. But I just can't take naked people seriously. It's like asking me to take modern day suge knight seriously. 😆

As a student of fine art academy, after more then five years, every day, of looking at various naked human bodies (fat, slim, young, old), drawing them, clay modeling them, studying them, I am trained to see the form before human nakedness. Proportions, texture, shade, light, composition - there is nothing funny there.

In front of about 30 of us folks in early twenties, a person, male or female, young or old, would sit. Completely naked. If one of those 30 folks would make even a slightest sign of rudeness or disrespect towards the model, we would show that idiot his/her place. We always payed attention that model is comfortable, talk with him/her a bit to loosen up, asking always is he/she cold or in pain for staying to long in one position, doe he/she needs water. It was tough standing there for two hours, with only one 15 min break.
I respect good model who knows his/her job.

I personally posed once for my ex boyfriend who is painter and ended up on the exhibition on 2 meters high canvases 😄 Luckily, you could only see the figure from behind. Not my face. That is it. I could never pose in another circumstances.

I did it once for my pisces friend but just my boobs. She's into photography and wanted to put my boobs for her art exhibit. I don:t know what happened though.

I can do nude for art. Artists are great! I feel comfortable with them.

I'm not skinny nor sexy but I'm comfortable with myself and my body so I'm okay with this.

Being naked or topless on the beach though is a no no for me.

I remember back in college. Our lovely teacher and mentor was also our model at times. She either has complete confidence or she just honestly never gave a fuck. We fondly remember the day she posed whilst on a period, she apologised for a the smell which sent the class onto the floor rolling around grasping for air from laughter.

Things got a bit awkward when she got her son to pose nude with her. We could tell he was very uncomfortable as our eyes penetrate his virginal flesh. Did I mention awkward boners, ah yes, few of those but he soon blossomed into a great model.

Oh and would I do it? Yeah well. I needed money this one time.

lol

sounds like she doesn't give a fuck.

too shy for that kind of "open" nudity. Some women are really awesome doing that on the cover of a mag or doing nudity for art.
