For this painting in the Love Your Body series I found inspiration from a gent on tumblr. Finding positive images of male figures is a lot harder than women, because in the body positive movement men are being left behind a bit. I try to be inclusive, so if you see an image that looks like something that would inspire me, please, send it along.
When looking for models I look for people who are in love with their bodies and happy, this fellow was perfect. Sadly the image wasn’t sourced, so if you recognize it, let me know, it was a black and white photo with the words “I’m done being ashamed” and I just loved it.
