I'm mainly interested in modeling for artists (sculptors, painters, pencil artists,  photographers and photo manipulators), though I would also consider other modeling opportunities.  I am a plant scientist by trade, but draw (botanical and figure drawings) as a hobby and enjoy modeling as a way to exercise my right brain when I don't have time to use my pencils.  I consider modeling a collaboration with an artist's vision to create beautiful imagery.  I am very conscious of the lines in my poses and strive to make them visually pleasing while always adapting to the aesthetics of the artist.  I take direction well, but most of the artists with whom I've worked tell me I don't need much. 

From the photographs in my profile, I hope you can see that I am lean muscled with long limbs.  I work very hard at staying fit by eating right, weight training and bicycling.  I am also a "mature" model and while I'd like to regain the tone of youth, I hope people can see from my images that one can still be pretty at forty-something.  My tan line is the result of working outside but I am willing to lose it for the right job.

I have worked with both male and female artists and am obviously comfortable with nudity.  I'm not limited to nudes, it's just what I've done lately.  I am willing to travel if the expenses are paid.  Getting copies of the artwork is my usual compensation, but it depends on the job.  Please, if my look works for you, contact me here.
