So, yeah! Bar Sinister went great! You’d think the painting would make things tedious, instead, it made time fly by and instead of getting looks of “who the fuck is this?” sitting next to a table of stickers, I got a lot of compliments. It also meant that if I was getting some glares and stares, I was looking at the canvas anyway. And a lot of people saw it and liked it.
Vending and running a table is tricky, and a lot of people hate it. Working the porn side, I’ve known sales people and talent who despise doing tables and booths. They’d much rather work a phone or a web site to make sales. But this is how you meet your consumer, or in this case, this is how I meet you!
There was a guy who was doing domination themed hypnosis CDs, and he would get great feedback from women into submission. But he couldn’t travel, and was afraid to be publicly seen selling his work. He constantly lamented his lack of sales and his lack of popularity. Not being able to go on the road and push his work hurt his business terribly.
Before I forget, I want to give a shout out to Perverted Podcast and kind thanks to Count Boogie and his friends for having me on the show. The subject of Nazi uniforms in fetish came up, and you’ll hear me explain part of the deal with Nazi uniforms. Keep in mind I’m a bounced Czech and would be one of the first booted into an oven, so I’m not defending white supremacy. What I did not get to say is a Jewish friend of mine loves and frequently wears Nazi styled garb and uniforms. WTF? Well, think of it as the skin of a lion. A sign of conquest and power. AMOK books once had a great book on how military uniforms, especially boots provide a huge sexual psychological impact. Any cosplayer or comic fan knows this well.
My Kinky Valentine is coming! Saturday, February 18th 1-7 P.M with an after party to follow!
I’ll be there, I’ve decided to bring the canvas from last Saturday. Also in the works is new glow in the dark stickers. None of this is currently available online. You want it, come get it at My Kinky Valentine! It’s at the Threshold clubhouse at 11300 Hartland Street in North Hollywood. You don’t have to be a member, in fact, you can attend, do the orientation, buy kinky stuff and come play at the after party that night! I highly recommend it!

It may stop, but it never ends. I’ve got to clean up the house and get back to the art grind. Laterz!
