Fine line between art and distasteful…. and I have seen a few distasteful ones too!! This is of particular interest to me right now (re this discussion) as I am currently working on something that is tasteful and artistic but adult content. Whether I post it here remains another matter.
Daniel, I’m pleased you raised your points…Im a hardened experienced artist and my creative head agrees… I do not take offence but am rather sensitive to what might offend people when sensitive material goes public.
I have worked in the art industry for many many years. Nudity in the name of ART is something I am very familiar as I have done nude paintings and drawings that span back 40 years. I sure enjoyed creating tasteful nude art. The human form is beautiful and has always hold a fascination for me through the eyes of an artist.
SO like Sharon says, its kids and some other sensitive people who you don’t really want them to see this. Yes, keep it tasteful and be aware of your audience
At the end of the day… well, there is always the motto one can adopt… “if you don’t like it, don’t look” …. but as far as kids are concerned, best to keep it clean if they are at risk being exposed to it. so for them, some sacrifices need to me made.
You must never limit your challenges, instead you must challenge your limits
