“I never put an amorous hand on a model. To do that would have destroyed the unuttered pact between artist and model. … The artist who squanders desire on her body has debilitated the urge to replicate its desirability in paint.” —Norman LindsayPicrel: "Imperia," c. 1940, oil on canvas
Any insight from those pedo painters who paint cunnies?
That's a man
>>8045082That's great . He's like Leo in Titanic. And then he fucks her later? Any how, impressive painting technique.

>>8045707>>8045809Norman Lindsay actually married one of his models (it was his second marriage). I don't think he time for adultery. Search his name and the number of works is astounding. He did oils, watercolors, pen-and-inks, etchings, sculpture. He wrote at least one children's book. Plus he somehow had other hobbies like building model ships, playing piano and boxing. The guy worked constantly pretty much until he died.
>>8045821that renders the quote in the OP pretty fucking worthless then
If you arent sexually aroused by and fucking your models then youre doing it wrong
>>8045862Not really. You have to consider the context. He had over 100 models in his address book, and many people assumed his personal life was scandalous because his art was very controversial (even just the fact that he painted pubic hair on women was considered shocking). The quote is him essentially refuting that gossip in a letter to his sister. But it's an interesting point about the painting itself being an expression of desire, and how the work benefits from that desire not having been acted upon/satisfied (and also basic professional ethics, I guess).
>>8045703zur not frisst der teufel fliegen
>>8045895yes really, "never put a hand on a model" is an outright lie by your own admission, you'd have to be retarded to assume the one solitary instance he wasn't truthful just happens to be the one you know of
Burgers destroyed his artworks because they thought it was porn lmao
I like sexy drawings. Awooga :)
>>8045811He really captured Lindsey Clancy's likeness here.
That's fine if you fuck, but most of the people here desperately need to feel the form.
>>8045809that's how frazetta did it lol. Despite being a ripped chad of a man, who married a babe and used her as a model in his paintings, he'd often watch her getting fucked by black men and then use that as a basis for his art
