Art Models

I love to sit down in the afternoons, put some music on, and look through photoshoots by art models in order to get inspiration for my work.

The knowledge they have for posing and curating sets is something I really respect, but I haven't given enough credit to them in the past. So, let's fix that!

Here are a few art models who have inspired me over the years:

I like how dynamic and allegorical her photoshoots are. The Naufrago set she did with Andrea Morani is my favorite!

Great movement and musculature. Works with Vilidian Vilks from time to time.

Felix d'Eon

An accomplished painter and illustrator in his own right. Does gay group photoshoots, and a lot of his older work is free to view/use on DeviantArt.

Lots of free, well organized references! Duos and groups, various body types, action/static poses, and so on. It's been over a decade since I referenced her work in a drawing, I should do that again sometime...
