Exploring the artistic nude in the news and in the studio.

Take me to the Kittens!

A Loving Mom

I haven’t browsed Flickr for a while but I thought I would get back into it again a bit.. I was looking through one of my contacts, who has the adult content filter on his works only to see this delightful message. and yes, it does indeed take you to kittens. many many kittens.

If you’ve changed your mind about wanting to see this content, you can ESCAPE. – TAKE ME TO THE KITTENS!

Well, I hadn’t seen it before (I usually don’t have a filter up, I have no idea why it was there now..) and it greatly amused me to say the least! delightfully tongue in cheek :D


New Nude – Falling

well, after weeks of work I feel it is finally ready. I still think the blindfold is a little static but it is as ready as it’s going to be. in a way, the precision of the blindfold contrasts with the chaos and looseness of the figure. I wanted to capture movement and an element of fear. those who have seen it in person (before this stage) have all said that they don’t know if she jumped or was pushed but that it is free and frightening all at the same time. this is a compliment! I am happy with her motion and the looseness of the brushstrokes. I am probably as happy as I am going to be with the blindfold (knowing that I will never truly be satisfied there!)

I think the impact of this series when brought together will be quite something..
