The Nude In Art. Post Your Nudes Here. Nudes, Not Pornography.

Posted by: David G Wilson on 03/12/2012 - 6:17 PM

Post your pictures showing the various ways you have portrayed the nude. Please let's make them tasteful and not too obscene. Nudes, Not pornography. I have endeavored to portray the nude in numerous different ways showing composites whose component parts I call "mnemonic images." I have transformed many old masterpiece into fruits and vegetable landscapes showing the alternative realities that I perceive in the nude figure.

Vivian, I love the Matissean line.
Rebecca, I love mythological themes. I love the fact that the Greeks used myth to explain natural phenomena.
here's my version of
"Leda in Ecstasy"

Here is a collage of my free as the elements series, consisting of 5 paintings, representing earth, air, fire, and water. If you would like to see each painting individually and up close look in my fantasy album! :)

Thanks David. :) I like how you created your Leda. The swan is really a subtle illusion.

Sell Art OnlineAlways thought that the human body is created by God, the human body is beautiful. Both men and women, tall, short, fat, thin, or black or white. Many works by old masters with their own brush to express the admiration of the human body. However, the many beautiful paintings of the human body can not be appreciated, deemed pornographic, often the shadow mask in a public log. Hair on this log, I do not know whether it is the date of masked, but the opening of the network to exchange it? Today to see this group of paintings, I feel very beautiful, art and pornography, is not the screen, is that of the human heart. http://www.outletsart.com

Shawn, you are free to post male nudes, if that suits your fancy. There is no objection as long as they aren't pornographic, which is the same requirement for female nudes. In posting female nudes most artists do not think about the gender aspect. We simply gravitate towards female nudes, not to be sexist, but because they are more appealing. Even female artists paint female nudes. So, feel free to post male nudes. If they're tastefully done, they're welcomed.

It used to be in ancient Greece or Rome IDK which any more that the male nudes were sculpted with the male genitalia smaller than real life. The common belief was that male genitalia was not attractive.
