I visited a new client for my tech business, it was an artist who wanted to upgrade his pc's to handle digital imaging. While he was on the phone I looked around his studio, lots of life studies, nudes mostly. He hung up and was obviously annoyed, his model had cancelled, ruining his production for the day.

My wife and I are more than casual art buffs, he got my card from another artist we know. After we finished the business part he started showing me around, maybe trading my expertise for a some of his works. I commented that his models were not usually young, firm bodies, but older women and some men, he said he wanted the viewer to concentrate more on style and technique than a hot body.

When I got home I told my wife who I had visited, she remembered his works and said she would love to have a few pieces. I mentioned his model dilemma, she surprised me and said she'd love to model for him, she had modeled nude before. This was about 15 years ago, so she was right around 50, she called him and she did model nude for him several times, and we did trade him for some of the other pieces, not of her, but of other subjects.

I don't know if this fits the theme of the thread, but I always like it when she exposes herself to other men.
