One of the most basic skills practiced in all degree level Art Education courses is Life Drawing. Historically, it may have been merely drawing from statues, as was the case for women, until the late 1800s after they petitioned to be allowed to draw from the “live” model.<\/p>\n

It is therefore no surprise that many artists continue to use the male and female form as inspiration.<\/p>\n

These works can be merely analytical or intended to be erotic. Each generation pushes the artistic boundaries, as happens in other forms of art.<\/p>\n

It is obvious though the analytic has the potential to be erotic. To some extent, the difference is in the eye of the beholder. And sometimes, the artist’s intention is somewhat clearer.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, the subject matter is just an excuse to make a very decorative artwork and sometimes the emotions are more raw.<\/p>\n

Either way, artists will continue to use the human form to portray an ever increasing variety of decorative and emotional messages.<\/p>\n
