painting of myself nude?

[Chibbs]

i want a painting of myself done, nude. think something like this but more flattering!!

how would i go about finding someone to do this for me? what sort of price should i expect?

You could commission a painter on www.etsy.com?

Phone local art college and ask if they need artists' models. You'll get paid to pose and likely get a nice picture out of it too. You do have to sit/stand still for a veeeeery looong time though.

I went to an exhibition a while ago of erotic artists in Hertfordshire. There were quite a few. You could look at the art work, talk to the artist about possible commissions etc. sorry I can't remember what it was called but it did have a wonderful variety of painters and photographers.

Thanks for your suggestions!
