Let’s Talk About Thursday, Aug. 1
Hey, I just had a horrible day at work. My body was shutting down. I developed a Charlie horse while bending down to pull sales tickets off the shelf, we had some real bozos in the store, and one of my assistant managers is simply making EVERYBODY feel uncomfortable and miserable. So, really, good times. […]

Let’s Talk About Beach Volleyball
Wait a minute, I can hear you say, what on earth does the image today have to do with your title? I can see a beach, but where the heck is the volleyball? Well, sorry, I misled you a little bit. I’m not really here to talk about VOLLEYBALL per se, but instead it’s more […]

Let’s Talk About Why I Draw What I Do
I want to sort of set the record straight here. I don’t ONLY draw the nude human body because it’s beautiful or aesthetically pleasing or cute or nice to look at. That’s a part of it, for sure, all artists create because they see something inherently beautiful, even if it’s in anger or hatred or […]

Let’s Talk About How You Never Stop Learning
I didn’t get any sleep on Saturday Night. Maybe an hour at best, and broken at that. When I forced myself out of bed at 9am (rather than the usual 7-8am), I was groggy, nauseated and feeling rather broken and frustrated. Yet I set out to try and do a drawing anyway, despite the many […]

Let’s Talk About My Latest Drawing
This drawing has been a couple of years in the making. I first encountered the photograph I used as reference during a search for reference material to draw from, although at the time I didn’t have a source for the original photographer. I desperately wanted to draw it though, as I find it an absolutely […]

Let’s Talk About Finding Comfort in Being Nude
One of the (many) aspects of becoming a nudist, is finding the ability to be comfortable with your nakedness, whether it’s while being alone, or in the company of others. Our society operates so heavily on the idea of the oppression of self, self-worth and self-identity that by the time we are young adults, it’ […]

Let’s Talk About July 20, 2024
Today is Saturday, July 20, 2024. We are already almost half-way through ‘summer’ (for me, Summer begins in May, regardless of when the actual solstice is) and this year has already been a pretty big fail in me getting out onto the beach as much as I have in the past. Yet, for some reason, […]

Let’s Talk About a Return
Ah, Friday. For me, Fridays signal the start of 2 days off work. Two glorious days in which I have 48 hours to choose among about 758 hours worth of things I NEED to do or 13,805 hours worth of things I WANT to do, and try to prioritize those choices by physical, mental and […]

Let’s Talk About the End of an Era
In the spring of 2018, my first in my new home in Coastal BC, I was doing a lot of foot work to try and find an appropriate secluded spot in which I could sit and suntan in the nude whenever I got the chance. Wreck Beach in Vancouver was a ferry trip and a […]

Let’s Talk About 7 years of Body Changes
In the fall of 2017, I made a major life change, moving from a major Albertan city to a small coastal community northwest of Vancouver, BC, Canada. While I had been interested in nudism/naturism and had taken small opportunities to go and get naked in nature when and where I could in Alberta, it was […]
