Male Anatomy

I, Kibumie, loves to draw the male anatomy. From head to toe, young to old, it has always been my interest in art. It’s not that I love men that’s just weird, but I am challenge by it. Especially if I draw huge muscular men, it’s like I keep on thinking where the muscles should be and how I can make everything proportional. I actually like to draw little boys wearing old Victorian clothes. If you check my artworks, most of it are men or a child. In all the men that exist in this world, Johnny Depp’s face for me is just perfect! It’s not that I have a crush on him or anything because Jensen Ackles from Supernatural is my crushie. It’s just that for me his face is symmetrical, the depth of his eyes, his mouth, and the shape of his face, he’s very fun to draw. What I like about Johnny Depp is that you can see a different character in every picture that he has. It’s like even if its just a picture and he is not moving, you can tell the personality that he is portraying is different from his real self. It would be really helpful if I can take pictures of men outside, but I don’t have a camera, and I don’t want to try and ask a random guy and say “Hey, you have a nice shoulders, would you like to pose for me so I can draw you??” That would just make me a weirdo, so whenever I am outside, I actually look at men not because of their looks but their movements, positions, clothes, and the shape of their torso. It’s like I am studying for free. I don’t like having my friends as my model because I feel like it would be boring. I like different faces, torsos, eyes, waist, and race. I actually bought one of those male exercise magazines because usually their models are muscled men. It is really helpful. I would like to buy a huge poster of the muscular system, but I have no place to put it yet.

Probably you are asking right now if I have a boyfriend to have as a model, I am actually single. It’s been a long time since I was in a relationship. I have been centralizing with my goals and hobbies right now. Some of the people I know usually tells me that I must have been putting a wall around me, well I guess it is true. Nowadays I have been meeting some cute guys, but I have no interest yet. Maybe that’s what happened when you are 20 years old and when you really want to achieve your goal. :3

    The male body is challenging to me too. I think that’s why I prefer to draw females, though I really should practice guys more XD;; Getting magazines is a good idea! I used to go to gatherings where a male or female model was hired for posing. Those are also helpful.

    20 is still young! If you’re not interested in a relationship now, there’s plenty of time later for it XD
