EDITOR’S DIARY:NAKED LADIES

Today I was reviewing the Beauty + Body issue which goes live in July. A lot of the artistic nudes in this issue took me right back to my art school days when sketching naked ladies was my stress reliever. Each week I was always excited about what challenges the contours of the models body would bring. You never no how you are going to react when you’re faced with the naked body of a stranger. You actually do your best to avoid looking at their private parts as if it was forbidden and against their will. In this issue we interview photographers who aim to take away the sexuality from their female nudes. I learnt to do this in life drawing classes by blocking out the desirable vision that is sold of the female body and observing the quirkiness and character about the persons body.
