Los Angeles (PRWEB) June 4, 2009 -- The role of an art model is to provide inspiration and visual reference to artists. So how does one do that? That is the subject of a new book called The Art Model's Handbook.

Topics include how to choose interesting poses, nudity and body issues, costume modeling, and professional conduct. The author's experience is complemented by interviews with male and female models, artists, and fine art photographers. The book is illustrated with figure drawings, paintings, sculpture, and photography.
