‘The Bachelorette’: Katie Thurston Teases What Blake Moynes Really Painted
The Bachelorette Season 17 Week 7 left many fans wondering what Blake Moynes painted during the art group date. Now, Katie Thurston and Kaitlyn Bristowe have revealed a few details about the painting. But it looks like the mystery behind the art piece might be prolonged for a few more weeks. So here’s what Katie and Kaitlyn teased about Blake’s drawing from The Bachelorette.
Why ‘Bachelorette’ fans want to know what Blake Moynes painted
In the new episode of The Bachelorette Season 17 on July 19, Katie took Blake, Andrew Spencer, Michael Allio, and Justin Glaze on a date. The group was instructed to create “sensual” and “thought-provoking” pieces of art with Katie as the muse.
Justin painted a stunning rose with stick figures on the side. Andrew S. also presented a painting about sushi. Then Michael A. sculpted a butt. But it was Blake who stole the show.
Blake’s painting, titled “Life,” was entirely censored. The contestant also made it clear that his artwork was about sex.
“This is just a physical visual representation of one of the most amazing, beautiful things that humans are able to do on a daily basis,” Blake said. “Not a lot of species can do that. That magic. These [censored] are also the beginning of life.”
Then when speaking with Bachelorette producers, Blake said, “Being, like, unapologetically a sexual, open person is OK.”
