Pretty much how it be!
I think that anytime a male artist decides to depict a compromised female form, he's faced with two critical considerations. One being, is he doing this to satisfy his personal lustful intentions and desires, and two, is it a misogynistic portrayal. To address the former, when i shot this model, i was trying really hard to be professional, because after all, this is my profession and i wanted to keep business and pleasure separate, but why do they have to exist separately in art...attraction is a basic human instinct and is only natural to be drawn to a subject or subject matter. Perhaps the subject your drawn to is a particular landscape that you visited and it was so lovely you wanted to capture it in your own way. It's the same attraction that draws you to a pair of shoes that you feel obligated to buy because you were moved by them. I'm interested in doing more shots like this as a series so any models down for the cause need apply. brand.nu.dsign@gmail.com
