“So, if it’s [naturism is] not about sex, gawking or showing off, what’s the point?  Answering that question is like answering why it’s fun to dance, or to swim, or to bike.  You just have to experience it to understand.  You’ve probably been a naturist at some point in your life already and forgotten.  You weren’t born ashamed of your body.  Take a diaper off a toddler and watch how joyfully they run around the living room.  Clothing is a learned habit, a product of society, not nature.” – Nick Alimonos, http://writersdisease.net/2012/07/03/what-naturism-means-to-me/

“Some clients don’t like how they look in clothes, but love the results when they see a portrait of themselves nude. . . I have painted women nude who are post-operative breast cancer sufferers . . . They want to be painted as they are, not as they were, to find new beauty in themselves.” – Sam Story, http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2030222/Would-pose-nude-portrait-I-did-45--unexpectedly-liberating-experience-life.html?ito=feeds-newsxml
