~Nude Art~

Ok so today I thought I would post about something I've been thinking about recently. To me always being an artist I've come to love and appreciate "The Nude" as an art form NOT always as something that is about SEX! Our bodies are all beautiful whether you are thin or chubby, tall or short. We all have at least one part of our bodies we like.

Well as I've really gotten back into drawing I find myself looking at more figure drawing art. Not art of just an object but art done about the body. To me it can convey so much emotion! Angry, sad, frustrated, relaxed, lonely, horny. You name it! It can be show in our body language.

So yesterday I did a treasury on Etsy called I love NUDE ART! Here is a link not sure how long it will be on here for but I'll post some screen capture anyway. http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=108034

It's funny to wonder what people think. I know there are many out there who would see this and be appalled! But WHY? We all have bodies why is looking at them such a bad thing. I have a painting in my office that my hubby did in College. I love the colors and the flow of the lines. It's beautiful to me. But when people have come in my office I wonder...OH MY what will they think? I also have this really awesome poster I bought years ago of a bicycle ad. If I can find it I'll post it on here. Found it! Look below.


Sorry this one is a bit crooked!


This poster is so cool! Her hair is amazing!! I love this wings on the petals! So what do you think about Nude Art? Post a comment here about what you think. I'd love to know what you think.

Keep on creating and expressing yourself through art. No matter what form you use!
Peace,
Jessica
