Uh somehow I find these drawings creepy I don’t know.. Or maybe just the expectation of a man drawing a naked child? I know it’s art but creepy art 😄

Dear Lea, I’m sorry for my delay. I have been with singing practises. I’m a little disappointed with your opinion. I consulted the Thesaurus for find the right meaning of ‘creepy’ and I don’t agree with your way of thinking. But I’m thankful for your sincerity because this will allow to express my opinion. I was so much time practising studies of nudes, and I will not shut up now. Do you distrust when you go to the gynecologist and this is a man? Well, so the people who are sketching a naked model in a drawing room, are like a doctors of shapes, shadows, lights, and curves, and also specialists that during a session are concentrated on their work. When there is some break, then the model to get dress or get undress behind has a screen. Also you must to know that is so important for the skills in anatomy, to know how evolve the muscles and the body, from a child to an old person, don’t matter. Why more taboos. Will we be more puritanical than for example Rubens, a personage born on 16th century, whom here is showing a drawing? Must we practice censure for naked bodies? and revive the Entartete Kunst (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entartete_Kunst). Perhaps we must to censure violence. We allow all and more on TV or movies, and why art can’t be free.
Oh Lea, I’m so grateful for your comment, and your following of this Universe of Drawing, but remember: THE PERVERSION IS ONLY IN OUR MIND.

Oh Beth my friend! You captured the essence of this work by Vincent. This artist drew with rough lines, but he had a so tender heart. Thanks again for your observation, wisdom and sincerity with your comments. I only ask you read my reply to another follower for this post, for me is an important clarification, about censure. ❤

Oh my dear, so true. This colorful watercolor by Macke, is a collection of several shapes that its meaning could be any thing. Maybe is only of one step of the abstraction. You’re welcome and I’m pleased to give you a hand to watch together any work. Thanks a million for your visit, and thanks again for your wise and suitable comment. Best wishes!
