Throughout her twenties, Kelley Swain worked as an artists' model. 'The Naked Muse' is her elegant, fascinating memoir of this time, meditating on art, travel, and how we accept, inhabit, and understand our own bodies. She describes her first experience disrobing for a class, modelling for international artists over six years, an intensive month being painted in Bruges, and posing as saints for a Sicilian chapel frieze. Swain reveals how it really feels physically, intellectually, and emotionally - in the moment when "it's my matter that matters, not what I consider to be 'me'." Both a flirtation with submissiveness and a wielding of power, Swain examines the model's role in art's alchemy, and tells the forgotten stories of women whose faces still bewitch us from gallery walls.
My dad couldn't even see the extra large face of his, but he somehow knew if the battery quit. The embodiment of Victorian decadence: an elitist snob lacking in temperance regarding ladies, gambling or anger. Luck and a strategic approach to life seem at odds, but the concept of improving my statistical chances for good fortune intrigued me. That's the way I've experienced reading this story.. They kind of seemed like filler.
The ending isn't necessarily a cliffhanger, but Kate and Murph's situation is only partly resolved. I lost 33lbs in two and a half months with this book! I've tried other low carb books that seem to be for the gourmet chefs of the world. Every time she stated a Bishop was unable to help her, I was likeduh!
I was also disappointed with the way she demonized / blamed her family for her issues. An OK book, but somewhat outdated after nine years. I am glad that even though she was afriad she still asked help from strangers. He is an only child. T
