29: Have a nude portrait painted




My Dorian Grey moment - I want to be immortalised in a painting. Not really, but totally comfortable with my nakedness and since Jackie Chan (no-lie) did a pencil drawing of me, quite intrigued by how I'm 'seen' by others. whether my inner being transcends my outer form etc. And I love nudes and think they're so beautiful yet vulnerable at the same time, so I want one done of me. Not sure I'll freak visitors out or display my narcissism by hanging it in the front room though. This challenge also means that I get to learn a lot about art along the way and I'll be able to discuss the works of the masters...

  1. Being a model doesn't automatically " mean that I get to learn a lot about art along the way and I'll be able to discuss the works of the masters..." That takes study, not just holding a pose. But it'd be a thrill, going to an opening where your painted self was hanging!
