Series created for a juried competition entitled "The Great American Nude" in 1988 or 1989. It was the only male nude submitted.
The model was a first-timer, recommended to me by a friend. I think he was 19 at the time. He was a natural. He had no problem with nudity. I explained the concept; that he was to look at some fig leaves, and try them on in various ways, as though he really didn't understand their purpose. He took over from there, creating a series of delightfully innocent poses and giving me exactly what I wanted.
It was the beginning of a series of shoots with this model. You will see him again.
