Extremely overdue feature

Sun Feb 20, 2011, 3:29 PM
For all the overdue features I should have done and haven't managed to get done yet, this one must really take the cake.  I offer my sincere thanks to the amazing ~RitaFoster :clap:.  I'm afraid if I say very much I'll take away from how amazing the visual of her work is, so I'll keep this short.  I must say, however, it would have been an incredible honor to have been a part of her work once, but as you can see from the thumbs below, it's been far more than that, and I am honored, flattered, and grateful:

         

:wow:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




If you wish, please use my image/stock to create artistic imagery. I very much enjoy being a part of the artistic creative process as a model and am highly motivated to do it with no direct reward other than the opportunity to see the result.

For respectful and non-sexual drawing reference purposes, permission is granted to do anything you may wish with your resulting drawing/painting, including commercial uses, etc. There is no need to ask me for additional permission, it is granted. All I would ask, and very much appreciate, is the opportunity to see a scan or photo of your work, and by whatever means you prefer and/or find most convenient.

In addition, and though it probably isn't even fair of me even mention this, I'd also prefer to not have my image obviously "emasculated"/"neutered", for lack of a better way to put it. Intending absolutely no offense to patients having had to undergo such an actual procedure, I have to wonder how many artists would render the undraped female figure with the equivalent of an artificial/contrived mastectomy. I am male, I was born with male parts, and though it took me a very long time to reach this realization, I really believe that's okay. In fact, I believe that every single part of all human bodies is inherently wonderful and beautiful and worthy of artistic rendition, including male bodies. And, all we have to do to see that is to open our minds to it. Let's open some minds, if we can! :)

Lee.

I must thank you for your remarks in the feature above. It is refreshing and beautiful to see an artist who understands and respects the human body for the beauty it is. Blessings to you.

I think more than anything else, it is that respect, and the desire to share that perspective, where possible, that motivates and drives me as a model. Thanks for understanding that and for your support of my efforts toward that end. Blessings to you as well.

Don't know if you do "requests" but I have an idea for a painting I want to do. Id love for you to be the model.

:iconjustmeina:
I've been known to do "requests", and I'm honored you thought of me. It sometimes takes me a while to coordinate everything (with a photographer, etc.) and get it done. I am probably meeting a photographer this weekend. What did you have in mind?

:icongothicpoizonivy:
Well I'm trying to make something similar to Roberto Ferri ( [link]) All I would ask is for a few shots with sheets/drapery and good lighting if you can spare the time. :)
Reply
:iconjustmeina:
Well, I suppose this photographer and I (or maybe almost always when I'm involved) are not all that into drapery. But, I did find some of the works of Roberto Ferri very interesting. I'm not sure how well pose reference on their themes can work, or how well I can make it work, but I did recently make some attempts, which I just uploaded.

No problem, thank you for lending a hand to the art world! Men are not easy to draw for me and you give me lots of reference images I can use to help me improve.
