I Admit it

Why the Stigma?


For some time now I’ve been coming to grips with the fact I draw pinups. As some of you know I struggle with the concept of being a female who draws females—I enjoy drawing women as its fun but I get frowned upon by others. In the past I used to try and hide the fact I drew pinups, like let’s say high school when I wasn’t really drawing all that well and coming into my own. To the present where some think I’m just perverted and doing it for some strange reason sexually. I cannot tell you how many prudish women I have come across lately! I don’t “get off” on drawing pinups. In fact you’ll see most of them reflect my sense of fun and humor and are only curvaceous. But I’ve decided to STOP being ashamed. Hell, I’ll admit it—I’m a pinup artist & I’m coming out. RAWRRRR!!! Expect more to come.

Enjoy some small thumbs of works I L.O.V.E.

I can't wait! I love your pin-ups.

I think only a girl can capture girly-ness of a pin-up.

Every prudish chick that has a problem with your art is only angry because they do not have the ability and patience to do what you do. Your artwork is awesome. I like your artwork a lot and I LOVE the fact that you draw. Women that draw to me are a turn on cause most of them look down on it as a whole like you have experienced unless they are graphite drawings of babies and family members. Keep doing what you are doing. And when I get some cash money, I will be sure to pick up some Lorelei fan stuff from you!!! :D

Generally such comments come from those who have their own issues when it comes to sexuality... You effectively become a threat to their fears, or something to be envied because you do not have their limitations. Though they're generally not aware of that either... and so, they attack =P

Effectively, "screw them hippies" hehe =)

Besides which, pinups are generally a more artistic and elegant celebration of sensuality than most things seen these days. I mean, compare it to advertising lately or the myspacian photography... =P It's like a soft touch of velvet compared to a rusted metal bat ;P If you get what I'm saying?

Ò_Ó i hate when ppl do that!
I have a tendancy to draw half naked females but i dont do it for sexually pleasure or anything like that. Jst for practise and plain fun. And ppl are all like ewww omg!
and then i also draw some yaoi and ppl get all touchy and say nasty things about gays and ask if im lesbo

There is nothing to be ashamed of! Art is the expression of a persons thoughts and state of being! If you want to draw Pin-Ups, then draw them! You're very good at it, I must say. :)
:iconarvelous:
Lol... It's like saying all those marvel comics are gay for always putting muscle bound guys on the covers. So muscly and glistering. Come one people draw what they feel comfort with most of the time.

Good for you love! I'm a female artist and I love drawing woman too, I think it's the curvy-ness in all honesty, it just more fun to draw then squarey men.
