Due to my neuro condition and recurring back injury I've decided to retire as an artists model.
This account is now pretty much redundant.

Thank you all who supported my work.

I've started a new photography account here [link]

Not been around much lately due to health issues.
Just wanted to thank everyone for the comments, faves and watch adds. It's very much appreciated

wow! My first DD. [link] What a great surprise.

Thanks to for featuring it.

Just lately I've been getting people asking me, and if I don't mind telling them, what the disability stamp below is all about.
So, for new friends and watchers that don't know, this is from a previous journal.

7 years ago I contracted a nervous system disorder (Cerebellar Ataxia) that as well as leaving me incapable of walking unaided, sent me from an athletic 150 pounds down to below 125 pounds. I have never been able to regain this lost weight. I am now rediscovering my body through life modelling and my nude self portraiture.

The human body is a thing of beauty no matter what shape or size.

I really want to thank everyone who has inspired and supported me.

wow! 5000 page views. Never thought I would see that.
Thanks to all my friends, watchers and fellow self portraitists for all your support.

Some self portraitists I really admire:

and there are many more.

Also who has been a friend since I first came to DA.

...I guess you have to bite back.
After the relapse of my neuro condition before christmas, my drawing skills have still failed to return. Even signing my name is still a major adventure.
In the mean time, I’ve done some life modelling and self-portraiture. Mostly of poses I would like to have drawn.
I've had to learn about my body again having dropped from an athletic 150 pounds to below 125.
Still, the human body is a thing of beauty no matter what shape or size.

I'd like to thank the talented artist for using one of my pics I sent her to create this beautiful abstract piece [link]
I can't post the original as the DA police would have a fit.

I'm also starting a stock account
