Edit: hi folks! Just a reminder that this post was the result of a fortunate confluence of factors. A woman was willing to put herself in a position of vulnerability to support artists. An artist wished to showcase his skills at depicting human anatomy. A community existed where these pictures could be uploaded for people’s enjoyment.
You are of course free to enjoy this art any way you wish. But if you want these posts to keep happening, ask yourselves if your comments make the fragile arrangement that make them possible more or less likely to last.
That’s such a lovely thing to read. Thank you.
One of the nice things about life drawing is how accepting it is of all body types. Obviously we draw from a pool of people with a lot of body confidence, and that means some body types are overrepresented. But for the artists, we celebrate every body our models allow us to draw. If anything, it’s the weird bodies we like best. There’s beauty in all of them.
