[ CC ] Nude Female Drawing

      
Look — I get it. Like most women,      
you want to be valued for more      
than your body. Well, news-flash:      
I'm not a mind reader. Perhaps      
you should have considered this      
when posing for these photographs?      
     
Hey, don't judge me. I just want to      
unwind, relax and draw ... yanno?      
I actually prefer it this way --- easier      
to enjoy myself given you aren't really      
a few feet away in the room with me      
forcing yourself to be as still as a      
bowl of fruit for five hours or more      
( sorry, but I can't draw any faster ).      
     
And I can get away with wearing my      
comfy flannel pajama pants for reasons      
that are all too obvious this very moment      
( seriously, I have no control over what      
goes on south of Belly Button, Arkansas ).      
Anyhoo, I would like to think that such      
is a form of human torture prohibited by      
the Geneva Convention.  So, there.      
     
Also, you won't end up with stiff muscles.        
Right. Enough with the wisecracks already.      
Jeez. Now hold still while I blend graphite      
shading around your nipples with the tip      
of my index finger and try not to get too      
excited yourself.
