I'm Sorry You Chose Not To Go Ahead.......Would Have Been Great To Look Back On The Adventure When Your "Old And Grey"....... :wheelchair: Cheers Glen.
This is what I was envisioning... except ya know with longer hair, a beard and some chest hair with a slightly more pronounced lower abdomen ha ha... this is from the movie Wedding Crashsrs in case that got lost in translation lol
I would do it. It will be memorable Oops, I just read that you decided not to do it. I should read through entire threads before posting. >.<
Honestly........... I don't know which scenario would be worse LOL that's kind of why I opted out haha
I can understand being shy But other than that I don't see any reason why not. I think it would be interesting experience to have your body analyzed and drawn in such a detached, nonsexual way and to see the interpretations afterwards Maybe you'll change your mind next time
Yeah I agree... I wasn't wholly opposed to it... I just kind of chickened out I guess... but there is still that part of me that might eventually break and go for it... it would be very interesting
I don't know if this would help but I took an art class with nude models. it was a couple of years ago and to be honest there was nothing sex related that jumps out for me from that class. If it wasn't because I still have the things I painted I probably wouldn't remember it. I guess I was too busy learning? If you have the body confidence I say do it!
Yeah I totally respect the art and the learning involved... I don't lack self confidence really but this would absolutely be a whole new level for me... I would absolutely wonder what everyone was thinking about me lol I have to admit it... but on the flip side I really don't see any negative consequences, just have to break down that initial barrier (in more ways than one)
People tend to only consider the anxiety around nudity etc, but just standing in certain positions for a long time is a lot harder than you think it is. When I did life drawing there were models who could do handstands and all sorts, but some beginners really struggled with even simple poses.
Yeah I actually didn't even consider that... worrying about the "big" issues moreso created in my own mind rather than the actual physical issues that could arise... good point
Also there was a dude who got a hard-on in front of a class full of teenagers....so also make sure you worry about that
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking what happens if you get a stiffy while posing, although you wouldn’t suffer quite as much anxiety if it happens in front of just one artist Hotwater
If I could stand with my hands strategically placed I would do it... but yeah I have too many fears like those mentioned above ha ha... I don't want to be that guy... I don't think I would get one but ya never know, sometimes these things have a mind of their own
