Katie Thurston Finally Showed Fans Blake's NSFW Painting On Her Instagram

Katie Thurston's Bachelorette season had some of the most memorable group dates in Bachelor Nation history. From drag queens to battle ball, season 17 had it all.

Towards the end of the season, there was one creative date that really caught fans' attention. Katie and a few of her guys teamed up with a professional artist to make some masterpieces about their feelings for the Bachelorette. Most of the guys' paintings were pretty tame—there were plenty of stick figures and even a colorful rendition of Andrew Spencer eating sushi.

But one picture really stood out. Blake Moynes' painting, which was censored during the episode, was apparently too NSFW to appear on the show. Fans were super curious, natch.

"Blake's painting is completely blacked out and I love that for him," one user tweeted.

"Going to need Blake’s painting uncensored please #TheBachelorette," another fan said.

"Okay I’m like an hour behind but SHOW ME BLAKE’S PAINTING #bachelorette," someone else tweeted.

There was even a petition created to demand that ABC reveal what Blake's painting looked like (oh, and it got over 2,300 signatures). So, of course, social media queen Katie took to Instagram to answer fans' questions once and for all.

In a new Instagram Story, Katie posted a shot of Blake's picture, which currently sits on the couple's mantel. She even tagged him.

And just so everyone's all on the same page, the painting in question is the small one in the black frame on the left (not the nude). Katie also posted this screenshot of a DM from a friend to confirm the meaning behind Blake's artwork:

"Omg is that his painting from the show?" Katie's friend asked. "And is that what we think it is?!?!?????" Katie's "yes" sticker at the bottom says it all.

On the show, Blake titled his piece "Life." "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," he said during the group date. "Not a lot of species can do that. That magic. These [censored] are also the beginning of life."

Originally, Blake had joked about auctioning the painting off in this Twitter exchange with Bachelorette producer Robert Mills:

"I think there's a right time, place and maybe price for charity," he said. But it seems like Katie's happy to keep it in a spot of honor above the fireplace, for now.
