Stripping down in front of a stranger. For some, that happens after a right swipe and a couple of cocktails. For others, it's a way of life. Quite literally.
"I can't think of any other profession in which a 40-something woman can take her clothes off and be celebrated and glorified as an artistic subject," says 48-year-old figure model Claudia Hajian.
The prospect of getting naked in a classroom full of art students does seem intimidating, no matter your age—so what's it really like to be a nude figure model day in, day out? Here's what six women had to say.
Madeline (who requested that we omit her last name) is an actor who's wanted to model since college. Sometimes, her two occupations align. She recently played a vampire bride in a production of Dracula and brought that energy into class. "I had vampiric poses going," she says. "There was one where I crouched down and had big swooping arms that ended in claw-like hands. I did some where it was more like grabbing my neck. Lots of dramatic angles." She likes supporting other artists, the stamina she's gained, and the ability to tailor her modeling schedule to accommodate her acting.
Emma Shapiro is a visual artist whose practice explores her Jewish and Irish ancestry through her own body. Modeling has provided her the connection to herself that she needs for the work. When she started out in New York, she'd model six or seven days a week, taking about three bookings per day. Posing for individual artists and special events brought her to New Jersey and locations upstate, where she modeled in studios and outdoors. After five years, she took a model-coordinating position at a school where she scouted and scheduled models (so if you're wondering, there are management opportunities in the field). For her, modeling was "therapeutic" and helped her overcome the insecurity she'd grown up with.
Aria Chiodo, a writer, was between jobs when she saw a list on Time Out New York for new ways to make money and decided to try figure modeling. Once, she ended up helping a student from one of her classes with grammar and his resume. ("It was a little odd," she admits.) She wove her experiences into her writing, and when she shared an essay in a workshop, readers asked her if there was sexual tension in being a nude model. "There really is none," she says. "It's a very professional, normal situation that these people see nude models every day."
Mazi Wadlington came to New York to work in fashion, but the job was stodgier than she expected. "One day, my friend invited me to model at an all-day portrait class in Long Island City," she recalls of her initiation into the field. "I took a 'sick' day and it was the most fun I've had working since I moved here. I realized that if I took this seriously, I could make this my full-time job and I just went for it." Since then, she's modeled at Grand Central Atelier, New York Academy, The Art Students' League, National Academy, Florence Academy, and private artist studios. She hopes to model in Europe someday.
Similarly, Hajian left a teaching job to work somewhere where she "had no boss/administrators breathing down my neck and causing me anxiety." She'd modeled in college and enjoyed the experience. She went to the Art Students League and the National Academy, which were both hiring new models at the time. Soon, she was receiving bookings and referrals to other schools and life drawing groups.
Cornelia Graham was working in retail at old New York department store Gimbels. They folded in 1986 and she began working for a law firm. After that, she sought a job that offered more flexibility, something "a little less conventional." A former art student, she'd modeled in school to pay for supplies. Now, she's even traveled to New Mexico and Philadelphia for gigs. With a husband and two children, she's been able to raise a family in a "more or less traditional way." She's been open with her kids about her occupation. "It's not the kind of work where you age out," she says. "The artist is always finding something in the humanity of real people. There's always work for all types." Once, the actor who played Columbo on television, Peter Falk, attended one of her classes and ended up buying her a cup of coffee after an opening.
If you dream of inspiring a world-renowned sculptor, you may want to reconsider. "I end up posing for a lot of very mediocre artists," Shapiro says. "But I enjoy the work and I get paid and it's a nice experience." You may not be living lavishly in a city as expensive as New York, either. According to her, the pay ranges from around $15 to $18 per hour at schools, $20 to $25 for individual artists (with some models charging as much as $35). Los Angeles pays better, and in Belgium, models can get year-long contracts.
"Most people will think it means you're an exhibitionist or a nymphomaniac or something sexual."
Unfortunately, Shapiro finds that people sometimes misconstrue models' motivations. "Most people will think it means you're an exhibitionist or a nymphomaniac or something sexual, when the job really has nothing to do with that at all," she says. "That's what's so liberating about it." Most of the time when she tells people what she does, they think she's saying "finger model" and believe, for months, that she has another kind of job. Injuries are another concern—staying in one position for a long time stresses the body.
Unlike the fashion modeling community, figure models are diverse in age, appearance, and vocation. "You have everybody from students, actors, burlesque dancers, ballerinas, much older people who've been doing it for a long time, writers—there are a lot of people who like to sit up there and think about their writing, artists, and just characters...body builders," says Shapiro. An older male model she knows works as a professional Santa Claus during the winter. But the one thing they have in common? They're paid-for muses. And that suits them just fine.

Updated | The heat this weekend in New York was so brutal that you might have thought about ditching your clothes entirely and slipping through the city au naturel.
For the men and women who took part in the second-annual NYC Bodypainting Day, that fantasy proved real. As the rain subsided on Saturday afternoon, about 100 models disrobed and got painted at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza in the name of art and body acceptance. The painting went on for hours, as NYPD officers stood by and tourists gawked over the fences. Once it was finished, the models embarked on a naked march to the United Nations building.
The event is the brainchild of artist and body-painting icon Andy Golub, who says he got a permit from the parks department after spending years fighting the police for the right to paint fully nude people in public.
We spoke with a small portion of the models (and one of the artists) to figure out what motivates people to strip and get painted in a big public square.
How it feels to get painted: "It's kind of Zen. I just get to stand here. I'm her canvas today. It makes you feel beautiful, no matter what."
On her family's reaction: "My mom loves it! I post pictures on Facebook, and she tells all of her friends. My aunt 'likes' everything I put on there. They always send me articles whenever they see anything about body-paint. I'm like, 'Guys, I'm not going to be on TV. I'm not going to be on Skin Wars.'"
PRINCESS MULTIVITAMIN (20 years old)
How she discovered body-painting: "My boyfriend of two years broke up with me. I was at home in Tennessee visiting my parents, and they had two canvases in the shed. I was depressed and I covered myself in paint and sang songs while I did it and that's how Princess Multivitamin [her nickname in the body-painting community] was born."
Why she gets painted in public: "Activism. I believe that nudity and sexuality don't have to go hand-in-hand. I think that the human body in its naked form is you. That's who you are. And it's a beautiful vehicle that houses our soul. And it's also about consent. I want my children to grow up in a world where their consent matters and where they can feel safe even if they're not wearing any clothes. And that's a big dream. I'll probably never see it happen."
Why she decided to get painted for the first time: "I'm an artist as well. I've been on both sides of the easel. I said that when the summer came around after this long and terrible winter I would do something a little more daring, and that's what this is."
What she like about Bodypainting Day: "It's very liberating to have people of all different sizes and ages. It's not a modeling contest. That's not what it's about."
What it feels like to be body-painted in public: "Great. I love it. There's not a better feeling than being naked."
How he first became interested: "I was nervous when I first started. I started out by doing naked yoga. I had a great teacher named Cindy. She taught me how to come out of my shell."
What it feels like to get painted: "I'd say it's like jumping in a cold pool. There's that first 10 seconds of shock, and then you're just kind of hanging out. With a friend. Who's painting a flower on your butt."
Is her family cool with it? "They're fine. They know who I am. It's not a huge surprise to anyone. My dad always says that I'm kind of a grown-up flower child. I'm happy he got the grown-up part, anyways."
On her career when not being body-painted: "I'm an office administrator. So I'm clothed usually in that job."
What it feels like to be body-painted: "It's the excitement of the artistic experience, being involved in something where I really feel like [her painter] is seeing my spirit and he's painting it on my body and we have this really unique opportunity to connect in the artistic process. As a dancer and a writer, it's a really exciting experience. It helps me connect with my spirit."
Why she likes it: "I am a naturalist, if you will. I think that in and of itself allows us to be free. I think we spend a lot of time trying on different identities, different outfits, just trying to hide who we really are. This is such an opportunity to be seen."
On her family's reaction: "They don't really understand it. At the same time, I'm also the free spirit of the family. I teach yoga, and I teach dance. And I help run an artistic program at an arts and healing center."
VANN GODFREY (the artist painting Miller)
How he became interested in painting people's bodies: "It goes way back to when I was in college. I recently had a chance to look back at some of the work I did in college. Even though it was watercolor on paper, it was figurative drawing with very bright color, very broad gestural strokes on top of a pencil rendering of a model. My watercolor instructor didn't really understand what I was doing. I didn't, at that point in time. I was on a collision course with body-painting before I technically knew that body-painting existed as an art form."
Why he loves body-painting: "It's one of the few visual art forms that is social. It's a unique collaboration between artists and models. This is not just artwork that I'm producing. This is me working with her as a person. This is me working with her as a spirit. And letting that influence affect not only the visual brush strokes that I am putting on her, but also, once my painting process is done, she is going to carry this artwork throughout the rest of the day and move it and display it and interact with it and other people. No other art form really enables that."
What it feels like to get painted: "It feels nice. On a hot day like this, there's kind of a nice, cool feeling to it."
How he describes the colors he's wearing: "I'm kind of working in opposite to my co-model, John. We're sharing the same artist. She decided to just flip our colors. I guess it has something to do with nature, since he has a sun on him?"
On his non-body-painting life: "I just graduated from college. I got a music degree. I'm currently working at a renaissance faire upstate."
On her first body-painting experience: "My first time was in a private photo shoot with just a photographer and a model. It was awesome. I love being naked. I love being nude. I love being natural."
Why does she like it so much? "Without clothes, I have no masks on. What you see is what you get. There's just no hiding me."
On the colors she's wearing: "I can tell you about the design. It is a lotus flower. It's basically about rebirth. Obviously the flower comes up from my womb, so to speak. I'm birthing a new generation, a new awakening."
Update: This post has been updated to reflect a change in Princess Multivitamin's name.
