A Classical Nude (nudity!) (Patreon)

Sorry for the slight delay, I admit this time it was just cause I fell asleep at an odd hour and then when I woke up I spent the entire evening playing video games. I should make more Death Stranding inspired art already.

Okay so like... I'll be the first person to admit censoring this piece feels really silly. I wanted to make this sketch reminiscent of classical paintings and body types. I could have worked on the fingers some more, and obviously classical paintings don't use outlines like this. But For an hour of work, I thought the effect came across. I just wanted to take a moment to talk about a weird thing.

No one would have any problem with this nude hanging in a gallery or a museum. Okay some people would have a problem but I doubt they follow my patreon. So at first I was like... okay I don't have to bother with the whole self censoring thing I do. It's a minor hassle but I've gotten used to it. The thing is... I got into the logic of not censoring this one, and censoring the other boobies I've drawn. And then I realized I would have ended up in a double standard, one that not coincidentally censors brown women over a white woman.

That has a lot of connotations and stuff and I basically opted to cover this up in the main feed. (You can still reach the uncensored version here and in the dropbox of course) But like... okay so you might say "Psu you're over thinking it." But that's just kinda how I am, how I was raised. I gotta find ways to be comfortable with this which I suppose could be frustrating for some of you guys. But bear with me, I'm still figuring myself out.

Hey, thanks for being with me this week. It's been a weird sleepy one. I sure hope that isn't related some health issue I'm not taking care of. I'll try to get ahead of posts for next week so we don't have too many updates later in the day.

Next week is Thanksgiving... maybe I should be drawing more food related drawings. Sexy food related drawings...
