All Nude. All The Time. **EDITED**

Needing something to stimulate our creative juices, my two favorite artists and myself entered into a challenge. To win the award, we were tasked with painting a nude. The only rules were that you had to work from memory (i.e. no models) and the end result couldn't look like anyone we know.

How would one win was the next question. To that end, we pose the question to you. Please vote for your favorite and have fun guessing if the artist was Audrey, Craig, or Nancy! The voting will stay open through next Wednesday and the winner will be listed here the next day.

Because I am not too techno-savvy and I am kinda pressed for time, the voting will be handled strictly through the comments section of this post. Simple enough. You post a comment, and I will leave the comments open through Wednesday, April 21. At that point, the painting with the most votes wins.
So, here they are!!
Artist #1:

Artist #2:
Artist #3:

**EDITED: I am extending the voting through FRIDAY, APRIL 23. Get your votes in!!! There will be an awards presentation on Saturday, and we will document that here as well as reveal the artists and their paintings!

  2. Aunt Steph's guess: Audrey did the blond, Nancy the beach (oops, Nan), and Craig the third one. My vote is divided - you all did a good job!
    If I were buying a nude, I would buy the beach one, but I loved the jewelry on the blond, and the third was most life-like!

  5. #3 gets my vote-the use of red in the background caught my eye. 1-Audrey, 2-Nancy, 3-Craig???

  6. Well my opinion first...#1 I love the beads however as my husband stated and i agree she could be a blow up doll...#2 looks like a national geographic special and she's not completely nude...and #3 looks like she's in pain. She just does look comfortable being nude and one of her legs is huge. Therefore my vote is for #1!

  7. I think 1. Audrey, 2. Nancy and 3. Craig.

    I like #2 even though it isn't really a nude...like the painterly sky, water and tho the tree isn't as good as the rest, it gives me a good feeling...the firstDOES look like a blow up doll!!LOL! and the3rd, although pretty good isn't my fave...all three are pretty dad-gum good! Good for you all!

  10. Lynn says: I tried to vote/comment yesterday, but I got bleeped!! Must have been my quote about "... tits on the radio." I think Audrey did the blond with the fun beads, Nancy did the starry, starry tropical boob lady and Craig did the happy in her skin nude. Such different styles makes it tough to choose one...I really like all 3. Thanks for the posting!

  12. I love this! I vote for #2...I like the sand in the moonlight, and oh yeah, the half naked mamacita! #1 has fabulous jewelry but I support the blow up notion and dub her torpedos and #3 well, that's gotta be craig cause they are just not that perky for life and I think the other two artists have seen the older side. Well done, everybody and keep the contests coming!
