the right frame of mind -London |
"I've posed as a life model numerous times
This sounds more sexual though. Not the reason I have done it "
Yes, most life drawing classes I've been to are a hotbed of evasive looks rather than full on gang bang action |

It’s actually nothing to do with boning if anything it is allowing the artist to incorporate my characteristics as a person based on her assumptions. Bring the portrait to life. Regardless of your opinion I would prefer a question to be asked in stead on assumption which are based on your thought process.
Thanks anyway  |

Always been curious about being a life model but I had heard that you have to be a member of a models guild or something? Is that true or can you just volunteer? |

It may depend upon the requirements of the college or uni. I did it for some time and was asked if I’d like to join the guild (can’t recall the exact name) but it wasn’t mandatory. What it does offer, is the chance to be registered and therefore get more work.
Life modelling was definitely one of my most enjoyable jobs. It was nothing to do with any sexual aspect and could leave me aching after some of the poses but still rewarding.
There’s a wall sized painting of me somewhere in London that sold for four figures - A satisfying legacy |

"Mines more for personal* gain as I would like to keep the drawing "
Go to a life drawing group.
They give you drawings
Sounds more sexual as you want a woman doing it. |

I've never heard this I just volunteered at a friend's life drawing class, gave me tons of confidence you need to have good stamina though to stay still in the same pose for however long they need, it's not that easy but it's quite liberating.

Most life drawing classes you have a mixture of males/females unless you model for hen parties ?? |
