I was painting while recording the progress earlier (for 3speak :P) but then the camera had to be recharged so I had to pause and thought to share the WIP photo. Taking painting breaks is a great opportunity to look and analyze the mistakes or anything that needs to be adjusted. It refreshes the mind too, so when you come back, you won't be as stressed as before.
One thing I realized is that people are so allergic to the human body. There was this one time I shared a drawing of myself showing my boobs. It's a drawing! Obviously done so I could study human anatomy better! But then my mom told me not to post things like that even if it's just a drawing because it's like I'm showing my actual body. Another guy also asked me why I'm doing it, and suggested there's a sexy magazine there and maybe I should audition.
Well, you know how I reacted...
So I'm painting my nude body now to piss them off even more :D
Just really weird with these people in my country. They WOW the nude paintings they see from other people but will judge you when you do it yourself. Like... what's wrong with the human body??? You know how it looks like. It shouldn't surprise you! Is it your first time seeing a pair of tits? What's with the violent reaction and the need to demonize the art? Who cares if I paint realistic self portrait nudes? Do you own my body? Yes? No. You don't.
Just funny how they are being hypocrites. The human body is amazing. It is really fascinating. The bones, the structure, the flesh, the hair, everything. I've been so insecure all my life and now I am already appreciating my own body because of art. Don't they want me to be empowered? Is being liberated evil? Why? Am I going to hell for showing my skin? Why? Because a book tells you so? A book... which was written by a man?
Just.. I don't know. Maybe they should enroll in art appreciation classes again. People in my country are just funny. No wonder why we're still a developing country.
Going back to my art... I'm loving it so far! I usually don't like the first layers that much. They usually are just the meh to me but I love what I'm doing now. I love how I'm acting as well. I'm relaxed and motivated. Yay!
Wonderful work, don't listen to the haters!!! :)

It's not just your country. There are some places in the world where the body is appreciated, but in most of the world it's not. I think this serves both religious groups and capitalists. Religions benefit from people feeling ashamed of their bodies and guilty of their sexuality so they seek in them forgiveness, which means money. Capitalist benefit making a product from bodies, but that can only happen if we don't see them as natural. Anyway, really liked your art and don't let anyone discourage you from doing what you love :)

´Just funny how they are being hypocrites. The human body is amazing.´
Indeed, don´t get the nsfw thing here all the time.
If it´s porn I agree.
But some innocent boobs that little children see at the beach as well ...
Hurray for boobs, lol.

Agree. Well if it is erotic art then I might want to add NSFW tag just to avoid arousal at work (it happens) because well, that’s erotic art. But if it’s just boobs or a nude body then yeah I agree.

@hiddenblade you are absolutely correct
I appreciate your thinking. But what steps should be taken to remove these types of stereotypes? What should be done?

Thanks. As artists, we can have a great impact thru our art. I’ll just keep on doing paintings with messages that I want them to hopefully absorb and understand.. that’s all I could do as I can’t control their mind or something. XD

You could be on to something there. While most humans get to see boobs pretty darn early in life, quite a few people were brought up on formula only ;-)
Yes you are! ;-) But look at the bright side: at least you won't have to share space with them in heaven. Besides, you will probably meet a lot of great artists down there. Toulouse-Lautrec and the Parisian Bohème springs to mind...
Don't take it to heart, friend. They still haven't invented an oil to lubricate squeaky intellects.

Not necessarily talking about mom’s breastfeeding their kids, but boobs in general. Pretty sure those kids would learn about the human anatomy in school.
Lol if showing skin would make me live with Satan then they would be there too everyone is a “sinner” 🤣
True. Just weird that it comes from someone you care and the one who should understand what you’re doing.
