Portraying your body

What better way to celebrate your body than turning it into a work of art?

Portraying your body is the process of making a copy of your body on paper. This copy is hand drawn from a photo. This leads to a beautiful line drawing that shows the exact shapes, sizes and other appearances of the body, such as scars, stretch marks and even tattoos. The portrait will allow you to enjoy all the things that make your body unique and special for years to come.

But there’s more! Your portrait can become part of The naked pencil gallery. If you agree to this, an anonymous photo of your portrait will be taken. By publishing photos of all the different portraits, an exclusive collection of real bodies is created and made accessible to people all over the world. Your and any other portrait therefore brings us closer to our goal: creating openness and normalizing our body parts.
