Sketching Drawing and Doodles Nudity and Family Values or Lack Thereof

[juice100]

I have been looking around at some of the artists sites here in LJ land. I am amazed at what I find. No, I won't go back into the quality and daring that is required to post those images. Done that already. Nope. This time I ran across good old fashioned FAMILY VALUES

I'm not my friend juice, of course, but since she didn't respond to this yet, fwiw *I'm* posting links to her blog everywhere, and she seems to be ok with that.::grin:: If not I'm sure she'll let us know. But as we were recently discussing, it *is the net, and are us artist-types putting our ruminations out there in public, if not to be seen by the public, on some level?

I love your art, if your icon is any indicator of it. Those nude women, dancing, is a classic motif, I forget what artist made it most famous- series of women, dancing, in a circle, iirc - but I have seen it in other art and sculpture and ceramic as well. It is very resonance with archetypal things.

Eroticism *is* in the eye of the beholder. I think rather your work is sensual. The "erotic" comes from people projecting their stuff onto it. Which is the nature of all art, of course, but I hope you do more than take such comments with a grain of salt. Rather, put them on full ignore, and continue to explore according to your sensibilities.

Huzzah for you and your creations.
