Life Models
My wife has been "Life Modelling" for artists on a part time basis since the mid eighties when she was introduced to a master artist and he asked her if she would sit a portrait session at his studio, after a few session at his studio he asked if she would pose nude and this led to her being asked by other artists to pose nude for them.
Good life models are hard to come by as holding a pose and knowing how to pose to the best effect takes a great deal of dedication and is often physically very demanding.
Although now turned 60 years of age my wife continues to be popular with artists as a life model and poses for private sessions and also art classes, during lock down she was posed for regular life drawing sessions via zoom.
