Pieces for Black Gay Erotica at Antebellum Gallery

Posted on July 5, 2015 by Jay Moyes
Black Gay Erotica piece: Corely's Footstool

Corely’s Footstool: 9×12, pen and Ink with colored pencil and gel pen on acid free sketch paper. Available through Antebellum fetish art gallery for $80

Ok, I know some readers are waiting for the Dominatrixes to return to this site, and they’re coming soon. However, as kinky fetish artist, I’ve taken Rick Castro’s invitation seriously.

Three pieces made it. I like Corely’s Footstool the best.

Black Gay Erotica piece: Big, Rough and Tough

Rough, Big and Tough: 4×15, acrylic on birch wood.Available through Antebellum fetish art gallery for $90 Sold!

You’ve seen this one above before. I think this one is most likely to make it into the show.

Black Gay Erotica: Rubber Master with Red Harnessed Slave

Rubber Master with Red Harnessed Slave: 9×12, pen and ink with colored pencil and colored pens. Available through Antebellum fetish art gallery for $80

This last one may not make it. While I used photographs for reference, the skin tones may not be dark enough to be believable. When I delivered this last one, someone even said they look Germanic.

And here’s an odd note I’d like to make before moving on. Many times artists get criticized for not being realistic. My comic style is a great example. However, people see what they want to see. In this case, both Corely’s Footstool and the Rough, Big and Tough paddle both use what we’d normally consider black flesh tones. Yet, if you placed them to my copy of Instigator, with several Black men, they would not look real.

I get similar comments regarding anatomy, especially regarding the female form. Yet when we look at the reference materials, things often don’t look right upon close examination.

The show opens this Friday, July 10th, at 7pm at Antebellum fetish art gallery. For details, including info on how to purchase, go to http://antebellumgallery.blogspot.com/2015/07/celebrate-black-pride-2015-black-gay.html

Another Word About Centurian and Transformation

Posted on June 25, 2015 by Jay Moyes

News about this piece in progress below…

Good morning, don’t have much time but had something good to say. The folks over at Centurian and Transformation magazine were apparently going through my posts and saw the post I did last year showing them some appreciation. They loved it.

I’ve got some good news for them. Since we talked at DomCon, I’ve been meaning to add them to my links list and even draw up a banner for their sites like I’ve done for Fetish Movies and Extreme Restraints. At this rate though, I should just start a gender-bent links section.

You can check them out at:

enslavedsissies.com

forced-womanhood.com

transformationonline.com

But this isn’t the good news. While at Tom’s Bar on Sunday, Rick Castro and I talked about the upcoming Black Gay Erotic show in July. He’s agreed to let me submit more than just the paddle (which is getting a serious clear coat this week). Rick loves to joke about sissies. Honestly, I think there’s something he likes about the way the word rolls off his tongue. He said a sissy piece wouldn’t be a good fit, until I suggested a Black master with sissy slaves. Rick loved that idea. The guy in the sketch up top was from the modeling sessions at Tom’s Bar. I’m frantically trying to finish pieces for the deadline, but I thought the folks at Transformation would get a kick out the new sketch in progress.

It may stop, but it never ends…

Sheer Damn Manliness at Tom’s Bar June 21st!

Posted on June 20, 2015 by Jay Moyes

Men Men Men! It’s ok, we’ll get an estrogen break soon, I promise!

The Tom Of Finland Foundation does a number of events through the year, some small, and some all out. The two biggest I can think is the art fair and Tom’s Bar.

Femdom Art: Domination 3 Way

Oh heck, here’s some estrogen 🙂 The man in the middle was based on a sketch I started at a Tom of Finland drawing workshop. This is in honor of Crazy Sharon.

Tom’s Bar is an annual wake in honor of Touko Laaksonen, the man we know today as Tom of Finland. His passing wish was that there not be a funeral, but one hell of a party. Tom’s Bar was born and has been a regular event at the Faultline on Vermont and Melrose.

It’s like Dr. Sketchy’s, only with loud music, beer, cigars, leather, art exhibitors, and manly male models. Ok, it’s not like Dr. Sketchy’s 😉

But you get the idea. My friend and patron, Crazy Sharon suggested I exhibit there. I tried, but was too late to get an artist’s spot. However, I’ve volunteered as an artist assistant at the party, and hope to get some sketching time in.

The paint on the paddle for Rick is finished. I’ve been adding clear coats.

Rick Castro of Antebellum will be there. With luck, I’ll be his assistant. I’ll also show off the progress of the paddle and other pieces for his upcoming show.
