Leatherman Art

Leather Daddy BDSM drawing

While I draw a lot of female-oriented art, that doesn’t mean I’m homophobic. Quite the contrary, my roots go back to the San Francisco BDSM scene, where there was a major amount of crossover and influence. Before munches spread outside of the Bay Area, if you wanted to find the leather scene, the best way to get there was through the gay community.

Los Angeles was a good example. Among the easiest places to find the leather scene was the leather bars. 665‘s, a play space and bondage furniture showroom was located nearby one of the most legendary bars, The Faultline .

The drawing above was drawn at 665’s play space. There was a leatherman party there that night that had a piercing workshop, which influenced the piece.

That’s certainly not the first time I whipped up some leatherman art. The piece above and below were for VASM, a Canadian leatherman group that traded art for advertising.

Still not sure where the last piece came from. His cock is certainly unusual, but definitely not unrealistic.

I added this one for fun, and to give a sense of the crossover I’d see.

Where do I sexually stand on all of this? Well, Sherry tends to be pretty jealous these days, no matter what the gender. So I’m not gettin’ that kind of action any time soon. I can say that if I had to do it all over again, I’d be much more open to experimentation in my youth. The bright side about the San Francisco scene was that you could develop intense relationships in the community with really rocking orgasms, but not necessarily worry about them impacting issues at home, such as “who’s cooking dinner” and “I hate it when he leaves his underwear on the doorknob.”

As for doing more art like this in the future? Why not?
