Portrait Dare

Maeglin · 12-19-2006, 02:15 AM

Here's a dare for the artistic types,

Find an artist (either a professional if you can afford it, or maybe find an art student at uni) and get them to paint a portrait of you naked. Get it framed and hang it in a prominent position in your house. Get a photo taken of you and a third party (not the artist) in front of the portrait, then post on here.

Or for the more arty types:

Find someone of the opposite sex and ask if you could paint a portrait of them naked. Include the getDare logo in one corner of the painting. Get a photo of you and the subject and post on here. The portrait then belongs to the subject for them to do what they wish.

Nice and interesting dares.

Just a clarification, a "Portrait" is ususally just the person's face, so it might be quite surprising to the artist when you get undressed

I guess you'll have to clarify the request a full body painting/drawing.

So you could ask for a portrait, or maybe if you wanted to let them know... say a nude portrait.

The war is over. And let us never forget those who journeyed into the howling dark, and did not return. For their decision required courage beyond measure. Sacrifice, an unshakeable conviction that their fight... our fight... was elsewhere. As we start to rebuild, this hillside will remain barren, a memorial to heroes fallen. They enobled all of us, and they shall not be forgotten
