I've been a home naturist for many years and particularly enjoy the freedom that being clothes free gives you. I feel much more relaxed and can feel the stress just draining away every time I am undressed.
Having posed for my wife to help her develop her life drawing skills, after this last long session I decided that I wanted to achieve a long held ambition and actually pose for a life drawing club, and luckily for me, my wife agreed to the idea.
I contacted a local artist who runs regular sessions and she very kindly arranged for me to complete a trial with her just to see if I could be undressed in front of people I didn't know. The allotted day came and I went along to the location feeling rather nervous.
I duly undressed in a changing room and came out in a gown. About 4 people had arrived when I was asked to remove the gown, and although I was slightly nervous, I did so and surprisingly didn't feel embarrassed or self conscious at all, in fact in the warmth of the day it felt perfectly natural.
I was asked to pose in various positions so nothing was left to the imagination and to overcome any residual shyness that I had, and I actually found it to be quite easy and enjoyable.
The time flew by and the session ended and it was time to get dressed. Everyone who had attended thanked me and were very friendly. I then went on to complete another 6 or so sessions with the artist in front of classes that contained anything up to 40 people. Removing my robe the first time was a little daunting but I managed to and haven't looked back since. Again, everyone was really friendly and thanked me for taking part at the end of the session.
I haven't had time to work with the artist recently, which I want to address, as it is certainly something I want to continue with.
Being naked isn't strange or an affliction, it's perfectly natural and a surprising number of people just accept you as you are.
Modelling has helped with my confidence as well which has, in turn, helped with my business as I need to speak with a variety of people from all walks of life which was something I'd struggled with before - fantastic experience!
Just important to keep within the law when naked in public though.
That's great! Modelling is something I'd love to do - but don't know how that would go over with the wife. Not sure they'd want an older - not quite so fit - guy anyway. I'm sure I'd have no problems with being nude in front of others. I've often been at nudist beaches, camps etc. But I guess be a bit different when everybody else was clothed and looking at you - lol.
Well - congratulations on making that step.

I have actually found that it is easier to be naked in front of strangers than it is in front of people I know.
When it has happened, it has been in a 'naturist' situation, ( either a beach or secluded villa etc.), not like yours rich that was in a situation where others are clothed. That takes a little more confidence I feel.

I too did the posing thing,mine was with a friend who was taking a fine arts degree ,she asked if i would do it,then after the first time she invited a couple of friends,which I have to say took a little getting use to especially as they had more personal ideas o poses they wanted me to do.
But all in all greatt fun and I used to look forward to posing,I have sinced posed for otheres in a larger group which is surprisingly easy.
