Modeling for Artwork

As an artist, I use photos taken of live models to draw from. The backgrounds and scenery are then added in as the piece comes together, and can even be left as white. The shoots can be taken in a models home or choice of location, to make the model more comfortable as well.

This will be an informal photo shoot, a quick couple images snapped to use as reference photos for a drawing, the model will have some artistic liscence as to how they want to pose, and is more than welcome to suggest a background or theme for their own photo. It will be a great opportunity for new models as well as some more experienced models just wanting to have some fun. I am not a professional photographer by any means, and because the photos are just being used to draw from there isn't really a heavy emhasis on lighting or backgrounds.

There is no monetary compensation for models, however, any photograph taken will be available to the model, and I also offer to make a piece for the model as a form of compensation as well.

This series of drawing focuses on the beauty of both, the male and female body, in it's most natural form, nude. Please note, this is not a sexual shoot in any way, I do not do pieces like that unless I am privately commissiond by a model to do so.
