Because, you know, we’d never publish real naked people. Never. Period.
Trying to stay current
A couple of different Facebook conversations yesterday led to this mini gallery. One came from a photographer who mentioned that his models were not nude, but that they are “alternatively clothed.”
My response was that they must have been wearing the Emperor’s label. If you don’t get it, you must not have been paying attention in second grade.
Then, in regard to my own post about reading articles before liking them, one person commented that she only looks at the pictures.
I can see that. A lot of people prefer the pictures over the stories that go with them. So, I told her I would consider doing a mini gallery of fake nudes. This is that gallery.
They’re not really nude, of course. No, not at all. Not even close. At least, not by White House definitions. This is the way the world works now. We just turn everything upside down and backward and call it whatever the hell we want.
Honestly, I don’t care what you call them. Just enjoy.
This person is not nude
Don’t even think of calling this one a nude
She has a piercing, so she’s not naked
Isn’t the necklace beautiful? See, not nude at all!
She’s clothed in sunlight and shadow
This is not nude. Period.
Look, if she was really nude would she just be sitting there?
This is a figure study and figure studies are never nude
Navel piercing = not nude
