The painting, which features the completely naked actress exposing her baby bump, is set to be shown at the painter’s "(I’ve Got You) Under My Skin" exhibition in Berlin.
Yeo said the portrait "epitomized the human body in its most naturally beautiful state."
He added, "It’s been 22 years since a pregnant Demi Moore caused uproar by posing for Annie Leibovitz on the cover of Vanity Fair."
"In that time society has become almost completely desensitized to the daily exposure to people who have surgically distorted their appearance for artificial reasons," said Yeo.
He continued, "Yet certain sections of society are still uncomfortable with the appearance of pregnancy and images of naked expectant mothers are rarely seen."
