Dip pen, 20 minutes from life. Unsightly ink smudges added deliberately for artistic reasons.

Holy shit why are the comments all so objectifying. I would get it in a porn post but it this is just artistic nudity. Nice art though.
Oh my God THANK YOU.
Hugggg. For what it is worth as a woman with some body dysmorphia (not as severe as other people in my life) It was very reassuring for my mental to see that I am “normal” especially when it was presented trough such pretty portrait

That’s such a lovely thing to read. Thank you.

One of the nice things about life drawing is how accepting it is of all body types. Obviously we draw from a pool of people with a lot of body confidence, and that means some body types are overrepresented. But for the artists, we celebrate every body our models allow us to draw. If anything, it’s the weird bodies we like best. There’s beauty in all of them.
