My work has been seen a million times around the world. It is a good feeling!
What is the difference between art nude and porn?
I have seen this discussed many many times but just came across this answer from what seems to be Roman Catholic perspective. To my surprise, I for one quite like the way they put it. http://youtu.be/tBuTg155y1
They also touched on the aspect of shame where a model reveals her body to a number of people for a specific artistic purpose and not to anyone else's gaze where there is no such understanding.
