3rd entry for February 15, 2009

The evening wrapped up with these 15-minute poses. E- has remarked on one prior occasion that part of her choice to try art modelling was to come to terms with her own sense of body image.

I thought that was quite brave of her, given the societal bias that is often levied against fuller-figured people (a double-whammy being an older person as well.) As an artist, I welcome the opportunity to draw bodies across a broad spectrum, and E- as a model provides us with lots of interesting shapes to draw. I'm glad that she took that chance.
