STILL trying to get a few remaining models to send reference snapshots for the ANONYMOUS NUDES PROJECT...
Anonymous Nudes Project
Over the years, since leaving art college, my paintings and drawings have gone off on different tangents, from small gouache paintings, through Photoshopped collage illustration to large acrylic paintings on canvas... but there were a variety of images/ideas in my head that I'd never put down on paper...
a. Though I'd produced many life drawing 'nudes', I'd always wanted to produce fully toned/shaded/textured drawings of nudes, to a 'finished' n' framed state.
b. I always wanted to draw unfussy, simple, forward facing, standing nudes (arms down by side, legs together)... (though male models tend to suit a slightly different pose, it seems).
* You would not believe how difficult it is to find simple standing reference images of nudes, without asking/nagging/pleading with friends/fam
