I am an illustrator based in Sarasota, FL. I freelance for magazines/print and organizations seen in the credits below. When I am not illustrating, I spend substantial time painting from a model. After a series of paintings are completed they are optioned to a number of galleries across the U.S. I hope to make a difference with my art.
**I am mainly looking for female models who have experience posing for artists. Artistic nudity is preferred, but at times I do prefer a clothed model. This requires a longer term contract, with negotiable pay per session. Sometimes I am working on a piece that requires simple photographs to use for reference. This requires a single photo shoot.
If interested in posing, do not hesitate to get into contact.**

I really like your work a lot. I've started an urban clothing line ( www.BehemothOfMoscow.com ) and on the site we are developing a 'Studio' section which will display various artists' work. We'd love to put your work on the site so if you're interested to have your work displayed and get some more exposure, please don't hesitate to contact me at dewaldbrand@gmail.com. Your works of art will not be used for anything, just for show and a link or contact address to you. Let me know what you think.
Take care and much peace,
