Classes scheduled on Tuesdays are usually the more important professional classes in the school. Brush, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info and body sketching are the most popular courses for students in the oil painting professional class. The university class was two o'clock in the afternoon, and Xiuxiu came to the door of the big studio where she applied for the job twenty minutes early. After waiting for a while, the middle-aged lecturer opened the door and let Xiuxiu into the studio. The heating in the house was burning very hot, and when she entered the house, Xiuxiu felt much warmer. After a while, the students began to enter the studio one after another, and there were seventeen or eighteen students, including two or three female students, in addition to the boys. Xiuxiu's heart jumped suddenly as she watched the students prepare oil paints and drawing boards while looking at her with that strange and scrutinizing gaze. These students are not very old, that is, eighteen or nineteen or twenty years old, and she is still their sister, but if she is allowed to stand naked in front of them and let them draw, not to mention how she feels, what will the boys and girls who are younger than herself think of her?

When the bell rang for class, Professor Fang walked in from outside, and when he saw Xiuxiu still sitting on a high stool in the corner of the studio, he took Xiuxiu into a small dressing room next to him, and said, "It's already class, and the students are here, so hurry up and prepare." Xiuxiu went into the small locker room. The locker room is a bit like the small changing room in the bath in Xujiawan, and the heating inside is very hot. There is a hanger inside, as well as a small dressing table with some simple and common cosmetics on it, including powder, lipstick, and some face oil. A large mirror can reflect the whole person. Xiuxiu lightly put on makeup, and stood in front of the mirror to look at herself carefully. She felt that she had accepted the recruitment and signed a contract with them, so she had no choice but to strip naked and stand in front of the students for them to watch and paint at will. However, she cares a lot about whether she is beautiful, because being beautiful can make people look good.

At this time, she heard Professor Fang speaking to the students in the studio, and he said, "Students, today we have invited a girl to make a model of the human body. Everyone learns oil painting, and those who learn oil painting can't sketch the human body. Art is the expression of the inner and outer beauty of things, while the human body is the direct expression of the mind and body of the characters. What we call the human body is actually the physical body of the character, that is to say, the soul and beauty of the character are expressed through the physical body, and without the reflection of the various parts of the physical body, the soul cannot move, and there will be no feeling. As we all know, the inherent healing of painting is to express the beauty of objects, and the human body is the highest form of expression of the beauty of objects, and the beauty of the human body needs to be expressed and completed by ideals. Therefore, when we sketch, we should look at the painting model with ideals and appreciation, and use art and aesthetics to examine the beauty, find beauty, and create beauty, and not look at the girl with that kind of secular or even lewd eyes******** Xiu knew that after Professor Fang finished speaking, the student was about to start painting, she couldn't hesitate any longer, so she stood next to the heating bag, looked in the mirror, pulled back the long hair of the shawl, and began to take off her clothes. She took off her coat and pants, then her shirt and pants, leaving only her bra and panties. At this point, she stopped, thinking that this was her last line of defense, and if she took off the little thing that was left, what would she look like? However, now is not the time for her to hesitate and be sluggish. So, she slowly unbuttoned her bra, took off her panties, stood naked in front of the mirror, and began to look at herself with a critical eye to see if she could handle it. Since she wants to show herself to everyone, she is slightly taller, with a well-proportioned body, fair skin, round and straight breasts, a soft waist, plump arms, and two jade legs that are smooth and slender. She turned to the mirror, and found no obvious or subtle flaws or blemishes. This not only greatly enhanced her self-confidence in begging, but even began to feel a sense of pity for her body and appearance.

Professor Fang finished telling the students to ask Xiuxiu to come out, but when he knocked on the door of the dressing room, he was stunned by the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but shout, "Ah, it's just a goddess!" Seeing Professor Fang's stunned appearance, Xiuxiu smiled at Professor Fang and Weiran, signaling that Professor Fang was ready, Professor Fang showed a respectful look and made a gesture of invitation. Xiuxiu walked out of the dressing room, with a calm demeanor, her head held high, her steps were light, her long hair was fluttering, and she was wearing a precious costume walking on the T-shaped catwalk, showing everyone a kind of elegance and extreme beauty.

Watching her walk out of the locker room naked, the students were stunned for a moment as they stared at her in unison, their eyes full of surprise, admiration, and dreams. There was silence in the studio, as if even the human heart had stopped beating, and it was not until the goddess-like model came to the shining window and sat down that it was heard that people were still and a soothing exclamation from within.

Xiuxiu sat on the sofa according to Professor Fang's pose. The light was very bright, and it sprinkled on her body through the window, and the blacklist on her body was covered with a bright and vivid warm light. The heating was very hot, so hot that her face was slightly red, and her body was very warm and comfortable, which made her feel like she was soaking in the bathtub and taking hot water. She had begun to slowly get used to the staring and focused gazes of the students, and she dared to feel much calmer and calmer in her heart. However, she also knew that she would have to sit on this couch for at least two hours, and how long two hours would have been for a naked entity sitting in front of so many people. Therefore, she could only rely on cranky thoughts to pass the time, and when she thought about it, she remembered that the ancestors of the class actually lived naked and in groups, like other animals, they did not need to be clothed and covered, and everyone looked like that. However, human beings somehow began to be ashamed, first using branches and leaves to cover their pubic parts, and later weaving cloth to make clothes, so that clothes not only became a tool to cover themselves from the cold, but also became a value standard to measure the beauty and ugliness of wealth and poverty. However, what makes her wonder is why nakedness is said to be shameful and ugly by the people of the world, but it is said to be the highest form of object beauty in art painting? Could it be that the people's concepts and art and ideas are precisely incompatible and contradictory? She couldn't figure out this question after thinking about it, and felt that this problem existed in reality, and it was not something that could be deduced by people's consciousness with theory. Therefore, this kind of problem is still not good, and it is useless to think about it.
