Do you find the ballet boring? Do you think Dostoyevski and Karamazov are Ukrainian porn starlets? Then lovely Loretta is just the sort of cultural enlightenment you need.

Our 23-year-old Pet Of The Month is an accomplished painter who discovered nude dancing while looking for a way to fund four years of art school. But she enjoys her current career so much the snoots who’d rather look at a framed portrait over a shaved snatch will just have to wait.

“I’m very traditional in my art, actually,” she assures us. “Still life, landscapes, portraits – I’ve never been one for abstraction. I like reality too much!”

Speaking of reality: Loretta is “extremely flexible”, but won’t go into details, and also says she won’t share any other bedroom secrets-which is fine, as it allows us to impose some decidedly unreal fantasies with her in a starring role. However, we do know that she wants to travel the world and that her dream is to dance in America.

On a personal level, Loretta likes tall, passionate men who “look into my eyes, rather than my cleavage” and have a touch that is both strong and gentle.The balance is important, as she was indiscreet enough to reveal that she likes to be “thrown around” by a physically dominant male who still knows the boundaries.

“I need an athlete, someone who’s comfortable adventuring outdoors,” she says. Does this mean you like sex outdoors? “Oh, absolutely!”

Well, we have found that exhibitionism is quite a common trait these days…

“I don’t think of myself as an exhibitionist at all,” says Loretta. “I just don’t have any hang-ups about nudity. And I’m naturally an erotic person as well: Even something as simple as the breeze on my skin turns me on.

“That’s why I really enjoyed the photo session. It was so relaxed, and the weather and surrounds were just perfect.
It’s definitely the classiest shoot I’ve ever been on. But then, I didn’t expect anything less from Australian Penthouse.”

Spoken like a true artist!
