Kari Marie: Understanding Motivations
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2011/12/understanding-motivations.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Wednesday, December 7, 2011. I've maintained for quite awhile that art modeling honed more skills than knowing how to pose. But I've also struggled to articulate exactly what these other skills were. "I, uh, I've gotten better at organizing stuff, and managing logistics! And, um, some other stuff! It was not a very convincing argument. Why are they offering what they are? Is this compatible with my goals? What risks am I exposing myself to here? The other event which h...

Kari Marie: This is a picture of me with a picture of me...
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2013/02/this-is-picture-of-me-with-picture-of-me.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Friday, February 15, 2013. This is a picture of me with a picture of me. Which is wheatpasted to the side of City O' City. One of my favorite restaurants in Denver. It is way easier to see the image itself (ya know. without the wheatpasting or graffiti action) on Shannon Piserchio's blog. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I used to get naked for art. No, wait. I still do. But these days, I mostly get naked for my own art. View my complete profile. What Do You Do?

Kari Marie: Kari's Guide to Not Passing Out
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2011/12/karis-guide-to-not-passing-out.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Monday, December 26, 2011. Kari's Guide to Not Passing Out. Awhile back, somebody happened upon my blog with the search string "holding a pose and started getting lightheaded." I could imagine the circumstances that led to somebody sitting down to search online to seek an explanation, or some understanding behind what must have happened that day. Why would a normally healthy person be suddenly struck by lightheadedness while they were simply standing around?

Kari Marie: Cash Flow
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2012/01/cash-flow.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Friday, January 27, 2012. Could just travel around all the time.". It was a statement which was almost always tinged with resentment. Yeah, being a traveling model was pretty nifty. It was kind of like a two year long vacation, in a lot of ways. Tour the country, hang out with cool artists, go hiking with my dog. Sweet! You live out of your car? Cashflow. Say it with me, now. Cash. Flow. Tim Ferriss. Why pay for a place that I wouldn't be at terribly often anyhow?

Kari Marie: Can I ask you a question?
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2009/07/can-i-ask-you-question.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Wednesday, July 22, 2009. Can I ask you a question? When I'm working, my agreement to that question almost always leads to an inquiry about my hair. Not the hair on my head, mind you, but the hair that many women choose to remove- the underarm and pubic hair. I leave mine intact and have found myself down a rabbit hole which, a few years ago I never could have imagined. Let's start at the beginning, shall we? And now, two and a half years later, here I am. I still ...

Kari Marie: Selling myself
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2009/07/selling-myself.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Thursday, July 23, 2009. Nude modeling hasn't always been my job. In my other life, I studied ecology and have worked extensively with animals. At this point, I have a reasonably shiny resume detailing these adventures. I'm incredibly proud of the things I've done and I've grown tremendously as a result. By and large, I'm more than happy to share tales of bear-tracking, feeding raccoons, and wrasslin' cats and dogs. The same way I do when updating my resume? My Super S...

Kari Marie: Coming Down
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2014/05/coming-down.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Tuesday, May 27, 2014. Last night, it hit me. Surprisingly hard, seemingly out of nowhere. I wanted my modeling site to come down. Even after I largely stopped working with photographers, I still sat for local schools and drawing group. So I kept the site up. Partially for shits and giggles, partially for the occasional networking. But finally, nearly seven years into it, I stopped modeling entirely at the end of 2013. And I haven't looked back.

Kari Marie: What Do You Do?
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2009/11/what-do-you-do.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Friday, November 27, 2009. What Do You Do? Forty hours a week is a long time to spend doing something you hate. I've always been fortunate enough to hold jobs from which I got something. It's a difficult balance for me to strike. I don't want to embrace the assumption that what I do defines who I am. The reality is that it's me, the complete human, who defines what I do. November 27, 2009 at 8:03 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Kari Marie: So You Wanna Get Naked on the Internet?
http://modelkarimarie.blogspot.com/2009/11/so-you-wanna-get-naked-on-internet.html
Musings on my work as a nude model. Tuesday, November 17, 2009. So You Wanna Get Naked on the Internet? But you can't bank on that. As soon as something hits the internet, it is out of your control. If there is anybody at all that absolutely cannot know about, or see, nude images of you, then you should not model nude for photographers. Painters, sculptors, and drawing groups? It can be a wonderful, liberating decision for many people. It certainly has been for me. But it is not a wise decision f...So Yo...
