Random share as I organize/archive 10+ yrs of modeling 🎨 Laura Levine from my 90m online pose with PAAM, 2020 Anyone remember that pandemic nightmare we were glad to finally tame only to be rammed into a new national nightmare? We're screwed if there's another pandemic #lifemodel #figurepainting

Random share as I organize/archive 10+ yrs of modeling 🎨 Jamie Balay, from my long pose during online workshop by Martin Campos There were many different cool approaches to rendering this pose. I liked the real/not real, detail/not detail here #lifemodeling #figurepainting #lifemodel #lifedrawing

Back to work...more behind camera in '26! Rendering of Michael McDonald reference, by Kseniia (IG @figurative_artist) in Ukraine. It's been lovely to help her with some work, both mild and erotic. Can't be easy trying to be an artist (or anything) in a country under constant assault. Слава Україні!

A lil TBT to a fun Out Of New York studio (Union City NJ) gallery opening event a couple years ago, with model friend Ava Ette using me as canvas for a live bodypainting. No regrets moving to AZ but I do miss some DC and NY area events and friends for sure #bodypainting #performanceart #artmodel

Venturing into 26 with vibe kinda: "naked and probably should be afraid, if I weren't so tired" by Dok Wright, Vermont #artnude #nudeinnature #riverwalk #artmodel #malemodel

Looking back at '25 ... like all years, it had its ups, too :) This by Tallada from a ref photo used in monthly challenge by an international drawing group. Been working on digital housekeeping...crazy how many online sessions I did during the pandemic! Semi-miss those. #onlinedrawing #lifemodeling

"All This Could Be Yours!" by Tomás Harrison. NM 2024 We leave behind '25s big beautiful wreckage and eagerly await what treats '26 has in store for us! F'real, HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone. May it be safe and fun. Film image, no significant edits, blue hour on burnt-out mountain. #artnude #malemodel

To The Bitter End (of 2025) 📸 April Alston McKay 👤 Avid (me) Nevada One of faves from work with April this summer. Maybe giving Charlie Brown's tree vibe? Happy winter solstice, whatever holidays you celebrate, and new year. Let's hope for less fascism not more in '26! #nudeart #artmodel #tree

Simply by Tomás Harrison New Mexico, 2024 I know, I stink at updating/sharing. But, now and then. One of the more straightforward simple poses/setups we did but sometimes simple is ok, eh? #artnude #figureart #malemodel #artmodel #nudeinnature

Into Questionable Light by April Alston McKay Nevada, 2025 I have a back, too lol! Our backs sometimes don't get enough attention in visual arts but there is a lot going on there. This was a fun challenge trying some different lighting. Not all worked, some did #fineartnude #figurenude #nudeart

Light Trap 📸 April Alston McKay 👤 Avid Light Nevada, 2025 Terrific locations and results from this collaboration. For some reason I like when the making of an image was both more and less difficult than viewers probably guess :) Hardly any editing here. #fineartnude #nudephotography #malemodel

AI-images do not arise from the struggles, triumphs, joys, and wounds of the human heart. So there are no AI images in this book! tinyurl.com/yrv9brbf Model Society is dedicated to human models & photographers. Discover The Nature of Human Beauty! Artwork by @poorxphoto.bsky.social & Kyotocat 👏👏👏

I can hardly wait to see her again - the beautiful Miss Laurel of Laurel's House of Horror in Maryland! She's so dreamy, and, well, only a little blood-splattered! Next weekend. #hauntseason #hauntedhouse #laurelshouseofhorror

This exquisite book of nude models in nature has been a refuge. While the news spirals in the background, we’ve assembled hundreds of pristine life-affirming images that celebrate humanity and nature as one work of art. FOLLOW THE KICKSTARTER. We’re launching tomorrow.

Lots to Think About Painting by @banditalady.bsky.social from recent online draw/paint challenge based on reference image by Chris Lutton of art models Ava Ette and Avid Light @avidlight.bsky.social #figuredrawing #figurepainting #watercolor #lifemodels #artmodels #couple #duo #nonsexualnudity

By Thin Threads 📷 April Alston McKay August 2025, Nevada It was hot, and a little adventurous for sure. But not too terrifying, thanks to April's pre-planning and experience -- so we could collaborate and create a lot, with only minimal fear ;) #fineartnude #fineartphotography #malemodel #artmodel

Carry by CAL Photography with Ava Ette (IG @ava_ette). MA 2023 Revisiting collab we pulled off well considering we hadn't worked together and were both hit with life life drama at the time! We let that influence posing, some. Loving AZ but do miss east coast creative friends 💝 #fineartnude #duo

Without Chromatophores by April Alston McKay Nevada, 2025 Title by me inspired by reflecting different hues from the different natural light angles and cliffs. Chameleons use chromatophores to match surroundings; did best we could without relying on that or edits #fineartnude #artmodel #artnude

Semi-random throwback; red chalk drawing by Shandy S. based on my long pose during an online workshop taught by Rob Liberace. Does anyone remember that pandemic thingy anymore? This one was "way back" about 5 years ago. #lifedrawing #lifemodel #onlinemodeling

Safe Edginess by April Alston McKay Nevada, 2025 From challenging (for me :) but enriching work with April. Title added by me (sorta fits my vibe both in this pose and generally lol) #artmodel #nudeinnature #fineartnude #fineartphotography

Still with you by CinCin F. from live modeling session a couple years ago. Yeah ... too long. Not all of us have forgotten. Not all of us agree with sucking up to a murderous expansionist dictator. Well, either VP or DT or any such personalities actually. #ukraine #lifemodel
