In the post-WWII era, Abstract Expressionism moved the center of Western art from Paris to New York City. One of the primary influences in the rise of abstraction, the critic Clement Greenberg, had supported de Kooning's early abstract work. Despite Greenberg's advice, the artist, who had begun as a figurative painter, returned to the human form in early 1950 with his Woman series. Although having some references to the traditions of single female figures, the women were portrayed as voracious, distorted, and semi-abstract. According to the artist, he wanted to "create the angry humor of tragedy"; having the frantic look of the atomic age, a world in turmoil, a world in need of comic relief. Later, Greenberg added that "Maybe ... I was painting the woman in me. Art isn't a wholly masculine occupation, you know. I'm aware that some critics would take this to be an admission of latent homosexuality ... If I painted beautiful women, would that make me a non-homosexual? I like beautiful women. In the flesh—even the models in magazines. Women irritate me sometimes. I painted that irritation in the Woman series. That's all." Such ideas could not be expressed by pure abstraction alone. [45] Once you’ve chosen a thumbnail, it’s time to start adding in details. But wait! Make sure you stay loose. From rough to lineart. Notice how I leave out fine details like the beads of the bra top, and the gems on her choker and belt. Since our face will be slightly turned, that is, in three quarters, the chin is located a little on the side, like this. Alan F. Dixson; Barnaby J. Dixson (2011).

Artists began to utilize their own naked bodies to present an alternate sensual story from different perspectives. Women artists were using performances and photography to call attention to concerns of gender power dynamics and the blurred lines between pornographic imagery and art, and new media was being utilized to show the naked and the sexual. However, by the end of his life his works had become icons of the Postmodern era, depicting the human body without a trace of idealization, as in his series working with an obese model. [52]

Hourglass: the shoulders are as wide as the hips, and the waist is much smaller than this. Although this type is often considered the most feminine, research shows that only 8% of women have this type of silhouette. Tomlinson, J. A.; Calvo, S. F. (2002). Goya: Images of women. Washington, D.C.: National Gallery of Art. ISBN 0-89468-293-8. In the 2010s, there were a lot of erotic artists working. However, in some groups, most of the style is still not as generally recognized as more traditional painting forms such as portraits and landscapes. Over the course of the twentieth century, erotic images in art underwent a fundamental repositioning. Futurism, Cubism, and German expressionism were early 20th-century art styles that investigated the sexual by manipulating the naked to explore different views, color experimentation, and the reduction of the form into mathematical components. Even pro artists know that, which is why they start the illustration process with finding or making their references. Using reference isn’t a weakness as many beginner artists think, but a powerful tool to make sure your interpretation has a solid foundation. Using ref allows you to focus on creative choices rather than worrying if your drawing looks right Photo 6. Combine the shoulders and the waist at the edges, and from the waist draw a line to the hips. It is necessary to outline the length of the skirt – it will be equal to two distances from the waist to the hips:For much of history, nude men represented martyrs and warriors, emphasizing an active role rather than the passive one assigned to women in art. Alice Neel and Lucian Freud painted the modern male nude in the classic reclining pose, with the genitals prominently displayed. Sylvia Sleigh painted versions of classic works with the genders reversed. Helen Beard creates colourful and bright artwork in different mediums, from paintings, to needlepoint, to sculptures, depicting close ups of women in explicit, pornographic sexual positions. [75] Her pieces embody women feeling pleasured by their bodies, which contradicts the traditional male gaze nudes of women previously. [75]
