Muse is here and the sky is blue and full of clouds becoming anything you imagine. Muse is here to remind us that we can create magic out of our lives, that anything we wish for we can achieve by simply being true to ourselves; and that female beauty is one of the ways we remember this. When we remember the value of female beauty we know that Muse is here to inspire us - just as she's always been.

"She's both a blessing and a curse.... as anyone who has been privileged enough to collaborate with Muse knows, once you've worked with her, it's nigh on impossible to work with anyone else. I've never met anyone (let alone a model) with the inexhaustible commitment and passion for art that Muse has, I've been spoiled and now I am unable to find inspiration beyond Muse, as I say... both a blessing and a curse."
David Charles - Photographer, director and sculptor
"When I saw Muse, I said to myself "This is the Mother Nature I have been looking for". On the first picture, I draw her in a way a model would not like to be seen (all models like to be seen beautiful and good) Muse gave her consent to leave her aesthetic behind by accepting to be drawn burnt and charred. After our first cooperation, I felt that Muse loved my art and saw my vision, from then on her name became real for me (muse: source of inspiration)"
Mahir Ates - Artist
"She was born a Muse, this is all that needs to be said."
Stephie Betant - Photographer, artist and womens rights activist
"Is it possible to take a mediocre image of Muse? I think no.
Muse instinctively knows what the camera needs from her, even before I do! Her movements are precise, fluid, each glance of her eyes meaningful, infused with expression, passion and creativity.
Photographing her is just joy, she is addictive!"
Jacek Borkowski - Photographer and Artist
"To try to explain what an inspiration Muse is to my art would be sacrilege to its affect. As I have said before Muse is the essence of beauty and elegance, intellect and class."
Robert Vaudrey - Artist
"Muse is exactly what her name would imply, she is pure beauty and simple glorious inspiration, giving photographers - the perfect form to shape into a masterpiece."
Andrew Kaiser - Photographer, Writer and Editor
"Muse has the ability to produce images which reach in and capture viewers hearts, she has a rare gift which extends far beyond her obvious outer beauty.... the emotions she expresses with her eyes has the power to literally stop your breath, this is what turns her from a mere model into a Goddess, an artist and a true Muse."
Ben Turner - Photographer, Writer, Digital Expert
"Is she a ghost? Is she a fairy? Is she a Goddess? Nope, she is Muse"
Steven Perry - Photographer
"Clearly, when her parents named her "Muse," they were engaged in a moment of prophecy."
Miss Shyly - Model and photographer
WEBSITE REVIEWS
"Muse is a site with tasteful nude pictures. And a fine site at that, featuring "Muse", who's quite a woman. Nudity is natural and healthy and often beautiful. Nobody needs to be protected from nudity. Nudity is not porn."
www.sexoteric.com
"Judging from her website copy, Muse is an art nude model of the British variety who thinks very highly of herself; fortunately, we think very highly of her too. After all, we've always been turned on by high self-esteem (not to mention low-self esteem and everything in between, but that's another story), especially when it's warranted! And particularly when it comes from someone who has amassed such an impressive body of work. Muse's non-pornographic site is an unabashed celebration of the naked female form itself! Ah Muse! Would it be that every woman had your wisdom, grace, beauty, and bandwidth"
A. Tolesco - www.fleshbot.com
"Beautifully done art nude photographs of Muse . . . Images of Muse . . . she has some aptly named "literary" style galleries and some truly beautiful images. Nicely done. May be nsfw, nothing terribly explicit, just extremely well done female form images and tasteful nudes. Beautiful work"
Brian David Phillip - www.briandavidphillips.typepad.com
"English model Muse. Yes, it's her real name. Her site is www.imageofmuse.com. where she tells about her obsession, the way of her life: being naked at the About Muse section, it's so interesting that I wasn't able to pick and copy just one sentence of that, you have to read it all! She is multi-talented and... most of all BEAUTIFULL! Sweet, curvy, delicate and very feminine! A true WOMAN, ultimate creature of Nature"

"Anyone who has ever explored the unknown knows that it's at the very edge of human knowledge, human experience and man-made maps where all the truly exciting things are waiting to be found. For example, C.S. Lewis's story The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe upon which the recent feature film was based hid a magical world at the very back of a huge old wardrobe closet. Such discoveries await us in real life too, thanks to the White Witch of nudes, Muse. Muse is an extraordinary model and actress who has created and rules her own world of fiercely romantic, fearlessly artistic nudes, a world waiting to be discovered by anyone who prefers to look past the cliched and the obvious to find what's deep and true in life. Explore Muse's magical but very real world....."

"This British model named Muse, who at least physically, she appears to be the perfect candidate for my living in a yurt with a beautiful woman while photographing ice fishing fantasy. Notice that she has some meat on her bones. I'd post a picture of her, but if you read her site carefully, you'll see that if I did so, she would have me hunted down like a dog. So, you'll have to visit www.imageofmuse.com to see her. Be sure to check Image of the Day."

"Yes she is beautiful, but she is also one of the guardians of the true female form and the beauty that that form represents. Muse is the kind of model that we will never see in a porn vid or a cheap pornography mag. She's here to inspire, not to j*rk on and in the crazy world that we live in this feels like an inspiration by itself....."
Thomas Meddens - www.duclerck.com
Muse is an art nude model who runs her own web site. Whilst Sex in Art doesn't primarily focus on art nudes, it's the written introduction on Muse's homepage that has us cheering:
"Those narrow-minded enough to believe that nudity in its purest form should be hidden from minors; do not possess the capabilities to discern between artistic expression and crass exploitation, nor do they understand the innocent eyes through which children see. We are not born with a irrational fear of the nude body, it is something that has been wrongfully ingrained into us by society."
Some very strong words, we love her already!
www.sexinart.com
"The most beautiful art nude photography I have seen in the longest time, Muse's (non-pornographic) gallery is a joy to behold for all nude art lovers. The images in her members area are superior quality, true fine art images; Muse is living proof that nude photography really can be art, go see for yourself....."

"Muse's galleries are very fine indeed, Done with taste - not the slightest trace of vulgarity. Enjoy."

"Today we see the most beautiful women in the world being completely wasted. We see the likes of Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks, two of the most beautiful women who have ever existed, making their livings making 'trash TV'. Cindy Crawford is designing kids furntiture and Elle Macpherson is nowhere to be seen. Of the more modern crop of super beauties, Giselle Bundchen is still getting credits like Babe #1 in the movies she appears in, Adriana Lima is stuck in Victoria's Secret limbo, and Kate Moss is making regular appearances as the recovering drug addict on the covers of popular magazines. To our knowledge there is only one modern beauty who uses her gift, her beauty, her body to its full potential. She uses it, not just to sell things, or to arouse men, or as a stepping stone to a different career. Muse (yes, her real name) does what all real muses are supposed to do. She creates and inspires art."
Dwayne Bell - www.bodyinmind.com
"Surfing around for glamour and pretty girl sites (as usual) and I came across one called Image of Muse.
Muse is a model with brains and beauty. Let me re-write that last sentence: Muse is a Goddess with brains and beauty. She is an exceptionally captivating model who regards herself as an artist instead of a prop. "My body and my face are the tools that breath life into my visions; the photographer is the eye through which my imagination is revealed to the world," she says. Damn! I wish more models understood the artistic power they wield in front of a camera. Now I have to figure a way to have this artist reveal some of her visions through my eye!
When I clicked on "About Muse," the first thing I read was a quote attributed to Michelangelo. Michelangelo's words go a long way towards summing up my own view of shooting beautiful, unclothed women: What spirit is so empty and so blind -- that it cannot recognize the fact that the foot is more noble than the shoe, and the skin more beautiful than the garment with which it is clothed?
Apparently, Muse is also a social activist. Her activism, as it pertains to artistic nude photography, rails against the forces that seek to suppress access to nudity and to vulgarize the naked human form. Personally, I think any attempts to suppress images of Muse's naked form, and to call them vulgar, should be a crime in itself. "
