I have never been a looker, just a person. I struggled for many years with a lack of self being, thinking I was stupid and unworthy, this I am happy to say has slowly changed over the years though I am still hard on myself. I never used to like photographs of myself and would say that I am unphotogenic, my partner Phil does seem to be able to get the best out of me though.

As I have gotten older I worry less about what others think. Life is actually quite short and you only get one go at it to enjoy yourself, so I think I now have a much more fuck it attitude to life. I inherited good skin, and have never worn makeup. I have looked younger than my years for most of my life, but I am having to deal with my age catching up with me. 

The body is weird! Our hangups. As an artist I have gone to life drawing and seen many bodies of different shapes and sizes and it actually gave me confidence within myself, so much so that I tried life modelling myself. It is unbelievably good for one’s confidence, and would urge others to try it for themselves.

I have always enjoyed being naked in the comfort of my own home and have gone naked outside but only when no one else is about to see me. I am not an exhibitionist. In the last 5 years I have started sunbathing and swimming from the nudist beach and I love it!

Clothes hold you in and make bulges where you don’t want them, and wet swimsuits stay cold and stick to you! It really is true that inside we are all much younger than what we show on the outside, I feel much happier in myself now, more than I ever did when I was younger, such a shame really, so I will try not to waste anymore time.
