How do you feel about having a muse?This girl in the pic is a life model at one of the studios I go to. I find her absolutely stunning. When I stare at the contours of her body I am almost in a trance. My eyes are so drawn to her I feel as though I am taking in more information than I would an average person. I am truly inspired by her beauty.Of course I think about having sex with her. But when I fantasize about her I'm not imaging penetrating her, but caressing her body with my hands, feeling every supple curve with my mouth. Analyzing the forms of her body like an architect examines an ancient Roman temple. In a way, drawing her is a more sensual experience than I think fucking her would be. I honestly think if I ever did fuck her it might spoil the experience of drawing her. To serve as a muse, I think perhaps she must remain just ever so out of reach.Are there any historical examples of artist that fell in love with their muses, but never crossed the line into being physical?
>>7289365you seem like such a fucking virgin holy shit, fucking icky. ew.
>>7289365Men are scary.
>>7289368Ironically I could not think of a more virgin-esque response than the one you just wrote.
Why have a muse if you're not going to fuck them? You don't even have to be good to fuck your muse. Picrel.Just get one to agree to a private figure study and the sexual tension will create itself.
>>7289375I don't even see a human figure in that image
>>7289379Exactly my point.
>>7289365having an artistic obsession is probably beneficial even if its weird
>>7289365bro, you could have made this thread and been weird about your limerence for a woman that doesn't know your name WITHOUT posting a picture of herwithout the picture, you're either a troll or a funny weirdowith the picture, you're a god damn stalker
>>7289388It's weird to like women?
>>7289391When did everyone on this site become so fucking uptight? I wrote about having a crush on a girl and suddenly I'm a weirdo, on fucking 4chan of all places.
>>7289372I just wanted to let you know i think you're disgusting and disturbing. Men are all like that, it's fucking creepy.
>>7289403>Men are all like that, it's fucking creepy.not me, I'm one of the good ones. please, you have to believe me.
>>7289392Its only weird if you like them for their feet.
>>7289397mf i've been here for a long fucking timeposting a picture of someone else you know irl on this site without them knowing and saying "this is a person i know of, but don't know" has ALWAYS been weird fucking weirdif you want creepshots sandwiched between bbc worship captions and guro, then>>>/gif/and stay there>>7289403we get it, you're a lesbian
>>7289365People in this thread are pearl clutching faggots. Yes, it is normal to have these thoughts. No, it isn't a big deal that you posted her here, she's a fucking model. Tons of great artists became obsessed with their muses, in ways that are far more unhinged than your distant pining.
>Are there any historical examples of artist that fell in love with their muses, but never crossed the line into being physical?Pygmalion. no wait, he fucked her. and that's not a historical example. still an interesting story.
>>7289365What does this have to do with art critique? I can't tell whether this belongs in >>>/his/ since you're asking a historical question or >>>/r9k/ since you're hornyposting like a creep.
>>7289412Fucking hell thank you. These cunts are acting like I broke into her house and took pictures of her sleeping.
>>7289420>To serve as a muse, I think perhaps she must remain just ever so out of reach.This is enough to go on. It's an interesting premise. Let's assume you don't exclusively draw (trace/copy) Japanese cartoons and make actual art. Does it affect your perspective to fall in love with your subject? Does your emotional distance translate into how it affects what you put onto the page? Can you FEEL the distant desire, the butterflies when the artist looks at her? Beyond the lust, can the person viewing the work pick up on, for example, the artist's hesitance, lack of confidence, loneliness, etc.?It's a lot more interesting and potentially more useful than a lot of other shit posted on this board.
>>7289423so you're basically asking for examples showing how an artist's connection to a subject influences his artistic depictions of that subject?
>>7289421You're welcome. Ignore the crabs.>>7289426I wasn't asking for that explicitly, but it would be a good example of how to turn this into an actual discussion instead of using as an opportunity to obnoxiously shit on OP for perfectly normal thoughts.It would be even better if OP posted something to critique.OP, you mentioned the muse being more useful if she's out of reach. Can you say how that's affected your art? Can you show us some examples? Maybe you can reflect on it before your next meeting with her.
>>7289423The idea I'm getting at is that when making love to a woman, esp the first time, I really want to take in her body and get to know every inch of it. When drawing the figure, you're kind of doing the same thing. Since I'm attracted to the person I'm drawing, I am sort of making love to them with my eyes (eye-fucking if you want to be crass). This really gets me into a flow state. I wouldn't say there is a huge difference in the quality of my drawing, but it does get me to try my hardest.But like most guys, once I've been with a girl a few times, the mystery wears off, and the initial desire is diminished. By never crossing that line, my desire will remain, and so will the inspiration she gives me.
>>7289412What!??! No! It's completely irrational for a man to be attracted to an attractive model he draws!I say this as a former man, who is now a proud woman who no longer has testosterone. Men as such creeps!
>>7289463Kek
The notion of a muse is something loftier than wanting to fuck them, anon.
>>7289457I don't think it's creepy, but do you not think about anything else besides wanting to fuck her when you look at her? Maybe I'm just a romantic, but especially when I was younger I remember feeling all kinds of things looking at a captivating woman. A lot more goes on than just "this woman has a fit body," I'm talking about the grace and charm, the depth of a woman you can see hinted at just from how she moves about, the things going on behind her eyes and smile. Do you really desire her, is she really your muse, or do you just want to have sex with her?>>7289467Like this anon is saying. The latter is much less interesting. But maybe you're not comfortable enough to be vulnerable and admit those kinds of thoughts.
>>7289477Ya, I feel all of that. She's sexy in way more than a "I want to ram my cock in her" kind of way.
>>7289490Okay, good. Go on. What else? What about more than "sexy?" Are there other feelings there? People don't like to admit it especially nowadays, but it's not exactly uncommon to start having those thoughts like "I wonder what our kids would look like." It's only unhealthy if you lack the kind of self-awareness to pull yourself out of that and realize that you're just fantasizing, and that it isn't the basis for an actually healthy relationship. Still normal, though.The vulnerability in something like that can be expressed through art, and that makes it way more interesting than "hot girl I want to bone."Can you try painting her in a way that conveys that?
>>7289491I feel like we wouldn't actually make a good couple. She's younger, and has a kind of hip / edgy vibe to her. I'm making assumptions though since I've never really talked to her on a personal level. It definitely a superficial attraction. She is a natural model though, she gives really good dynamic poses, so I know she has a sense rhythm and grace a lot of models lack.>Can you try painting her in a way that conveys that?I'm not really sure what that would look like.
>>7289500Maybe I read too much into your original post, it seemed like there was a little more depth than "this model is hot and I want to fuck her." When I think of someone's muse, I think of someone you're actually inspired by. I wasn't trying to put thoughts into your head, but does she not inspire you in any way beyond being physically attractive? You can see that she's graceful, and has an edgy vibe. What does it make you feel?>I'm not really sure what that would look like.It doesn't have to be overt. If you're trying to express something beyond a technical recreation of what you see, how might you do that? Color, lighting. Art with "soul" can convey the view of the artist, or allow the viewer to project their own feeling onto it.If she's your muse, doesn't she inspire you to make something that says something beyond "this girl is sexy?"
>>7289504You're giving OP too much credit bro. They're just infatuated with her and fantasize about fucking her while painting her. It's not that deep.
>>7289370>woman finds intimacy is scaryShocker
>>7289506I think sometimes people are heavily discouraged from actually feeling things, driven away from their passions out of fear of being judged (as many in this thread would do). You may very well be right, but it could also be that they just aren't comfortable exploring that stuff yet. I want to believe OP is capable of more complex thought because he probably is. It could be that he just isn't letting himself feel those things.Maybe he can make some art reflecting on THAT. It CAN be that deep if he wants it to.OP, do you have the balls to do that? That kind of thing is what separates great art from simply visually interesting images.
I had a muse but she ran away and I'll probably never see her again
>>7289365Dante and Beatrice is a classic example, if you take into mind that he was a poet of sorts. I have a gf who serves my muse from time to time. Pic rel, pardon the poor quality. I think thats mighy romantic in a way, if that's what you want to do. But dont you ever want to ask her out or something?
>on one hand i can see why people think you are obsessed with this person,> on the other hand, I feel like everyone has had thoughts along these lines but they know they will be judged for expressing them so they keep it quiet this is the basis behind the whole "intrusive thought" meme
>>7289365Chat-GPT post.
>>7289397This isn't Tumblr, underageB&
>>7289390name of the painting on the back?
>>7289411/b/ and /r/ have always had faking threads where you post random whores to have them photoshopped into porn. And we've always known 90% of the girls posted are some virgin's oneitis. You are not 4chan, you are the effeminate bugmen election tourists who came here in 2016 and need to fucking leave already.
>>7289365typical disgusting creepy male
>>7289741
>>7289370>>7290306If it were a woman talking about a man you'd be cheering her on
>>7289365what about a homo or a male muse
>>7290401Of course they would. Women have no problem having an opinion on how male horomores should be, but you cant tell them anything about them, since you aren't a womanBut lets be fair, there aren't any real women in this post anyway.>>7290403Then it would be perfectly fine, since both of the fags would be DTF
>>7289365Nice try feminine bureau of investigation, you’ll never catch me
Do they kick you out if you get hard? Ngl, you're fucked to the depths of hell if you're an indian artist.
>>7290428 they just make you model
>>7289365drop the bass1@!Now you're truly in a trance! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lM3q-8tt9cof bass! bass!
>>7290307thank you my friend
>>7289365The dick will use anything to get you to procreate even give you delusions, filling your head up with fantasies of what can be. This happens to me all the time when I find a girl I want to draw because I find them interesting. I almost fell in love with one girl and she was not very attractive, I found features on her face quite unique and she wouldn't give me a picture or time to draw her (she did give me a handjob which was really weird) after being separated for a while I realized I wasn't in love or even infatuated I wanted to draw her but I'm terrible at remembering faces so I used most of my time studying her face when we were around which if you look and think about a person for a long time you mind tends to think you're in love. As artists we love to romanticize/mysticize these feelings but it can hurt us in the long run if we aren't realistic about what's happening.
>>7289519Jfc, please, learn the differenc between intimacy and being a creep.
>>7290401how do you go through life being wrong about everything all the time
>>7289365I Don’t recommend trying that. It’s probably of some value to learn as a man your life does indeed revolve around one woman, just don’t be surprised that hers doesn’t revolve around you.A memory of someone who was ultimately unattainable will at best be melancholy and realistic, and at worst overly sentimental or vulgar. Both of the latter are much more common. Especially as their memory fades away the fight to remember them becomes near impossible when your memories of them are more of your fantasies of what didn’t come to pass than what actually happened. Separating fact from fiction becomes more and more difficult, and when all you have as evidence of your relationship is old artwork they modeled for it because even more blurry and unclear.And the pain of knowing they felt literally no level of connection to you as the most random hookup they’ve had, no matter how hard you work or inspired your art of them becomes. It’s so painfully pointless, but maybe that’s how you become a great artist. Who cares?
>>7289365I beg you, never visit that studio again.
>>7289390i'd suck on her tits for 7 hours but not much more
>>7289365>58 postsNobody has commented about how this goblina doesn't look anything special.In fact, that is a very plain body, her only merit is not being overweight. She's not even slim, if you're not slim, it's expected that you at least offer some voluptuousness in return.OP is clearly an Amerishart who gets fascinated every time someone isn't 200kg heavy.I'm not saying she is ugly, mind you, (although she doesn't suit my tastes), but she isn't particularly deserving of all this anatomical obsession.
>>7293176*stares Gauguinedly*Just say you can’t appreciate tight brown pussy and go to another thread dork
>>7293199Very insightful reply, here is your participation (You).
>>7289365I have 2 muses 1 male 1 female, but I don't think about them as sexual like you do more that they are a perfect model to draw from.
>>7291572you made me come
>>7291645>but not much morewhy not?
>>7289390Reminder that your ancestors hunted mammoths, tigers, and other tribes for women like this.
>>7291645are you Jamaican by the chance?
>muse>Of course I think about having sex with herThat's like the main advice every artist has pointed out when working with a model. You can't be attracted to her. NGMI.
>>7289375>Just get one to agree to a private figure study and the sexual tension will create itself.word? do you speak for experience?this is a model I might hire, she was down.
>>7293404Shut up jill I know where u work
>>7289365>Are there any historical examples of artist that fell in love with their muses, but never crossed the line into being physical?Maybe George Romney and Emma Hamilton
>>7289365If you're 15, it's alright, you're discovering your body. If you're in your 20s, it's starting to get worrisome. Past 30, that's a real problem, and you need to take a long walk thinking about your life choice.>>7289370Why are women trying to psychologically beat men up for being men so often. Seriously. Men are such sissies for letting themselves be manipulating this easily.Anyway, OP's childish, but women can be waaay more troubling that him. Just recently, I've found an association of Japanese rope bondage thing via a woman posing for a local art group.You'd see public pictures, on Instagram, of a bunch of women, and what seems to be a gay guy, in a creepily lit room, roping each other. Not naked, apparently just learning how to do the knot and shiet.Also, porn actresses are real women. As hard to conceive as it can be, they're at least someone's daughter, and some of them decide to do some real crazy weird shit for a living.
>>7293957Wtf r u talking about dude
>>7289365Can you really claim a muse if you’re not prolific? You have to actually produce work or it’s just infatuation
>>7290306How dare you make commentary or stances on the functions of male biology, you’re not a man so you have no right to comment.
>>7293199Sorry, Orks just aren’t attractive, ok.
Anime girls are my muses, I cannot be bothered to draw anything else unless I get to draw them
>>7289370Then be afraid!>Verification not required.
>>7289365Dante and Beatrice
>>7293199Gauguin is horrid crap. He should’ve stuck to spreading syphilis to the natives instead of producing art AIDS.
>>7294321I also hate Renoir’s work
>>7289370>finding a woman sexy and fantasizing about her is "scary"bitter fat femcel, basedboy cuck or troon.also normal healthy women do it to men too.
>>7289408>>7289403fat lesbo hands typed this
My muse is my wife - she's beautiful and I adore her yes. But she's also my biggest fan and cheerleader. We visit galleries together and discuss concepts and ideas.you just need to get laid.
>>7295763Her?
>>7289365>Are there any historical examples of artist that fell in love with their muses, but never crossed the line into being physical?I think is was Dali or Picasso is that had something like this with a redhead then pissed shidded and cried when he found out her hair was dyed.
>>7293176This is your brain on porn

>>7289365>I honestly think if I ever did fuck her it might spoil the experience of drawing her.You do not have to worry about that
>>7289365She's gorgeous>She would look Great in Bondage>would love to have her bounded body at my home as a piece of Art
>>7293520My experience is girls I'd talk to on hinge, not models I hire. I think the dynamic would be way different if you're hiring somebody unless you got some real world pull behind your name.
>>7298590>if you don't glorify average women, you are addicted to womenHm...........
>>7293959Ah, you're a pretty one! (my sides)
just want you retards to know, that the majority of posts here see:OP>>7289370>>7289368and so on are just trolls baiting you and laughingyour (you)s are their lifeblood
OP is malegazing hard
Alisa Chung is somewhat a muse to me. But too bad she rarely post and have a hairy boyfriend.
>>7299741
>>7299753is it a he or a she?
>>7299754
>>7299757I am pretty sure she is a woman because of their pelvis, trannie can't fake the woman's pelvis.
>>7299766
>>7299768Lmao the humor never ends, look at her pelvic, trannies can't fake the hip. Too bad she's not active on social. I once drew and painted 30 days straight because of her and pewds. What a fun time. Almost made it felt like I wasn't doing it alone, art is such a lonely journey. Going into the fray and face the unknown.
>>7299768Forget Pic. Trannies can't fake the pelvic.
>>7299777>>7299776
>>7299780Are you implying she has masculine features? she is laying down, and her panda eyes are serious lol
>>7299782
>>7299785trannie death
>>7299785I think she is trying to be funny. Cute choker tho, maybe the fruit indeed don't fall too far from the tree.
>>7299792>>7299787
>>7299741>But too bad she rarely post and have a hairy boyfriend.what?! alisa chung has a bf? time to go kms now
>>7299805I think she has a hairy boyfriend named Matthew or orange Jesus. They shared room together. I will assume they are sleeping together, but who knows. Maybe he's gay and they are just friend. So don't kys over pixels, don't be retarded.
>>7299805by his own admission he had a bf in the past (>>7299757) but afaik he's never talked about it at any point in his instagram posts or in his YouTube videos. I mean, he had a video saying that he's lonely, so perhaps they broke up, but he could simply be talking about something in addition to his romantic relationship. don't see why it matters either way, as he'd never be with you, anon.
I wish I was someone's muse
>>7289365 mid, I mog her
>>7289370Wait until you learn about the wars men have started over women.
>>7299785rape
>>7299741Is it just a meme that she's a guy? I just watched one of this person's video and she doesn't have that gross tranny voice that mtf do. She just sounds like a woman.
