I don't want my photography to just be 'pretty pictures', I want my work to tell a story. I want to make lasting impressions on the people around me and also document those fleeting moments of human sexuality.
Dirty Little Drawings: The Queer Men's Erotic Art Workshop... A visual experiment by a number of New York artists - intoxicating!
New
York City six years ago - a small group of fourteen young restless gay
artists joined forces. Frustrated that the drawing courses on offer
only had nude models in academic poses they decide to take matters into
their own hands. Thus the QUEER MEN'S EROTIC ART WORKSHOP was born! In
the following years the group expanded to almost 100 gay artists and
their collaboration proved to be quite fruitful. Together they produced
around 12,000 drawings - DIRTY LITTLE DRAWINGS.
Sex and the Floating World: Erotic Images in Japan 1700-1820... This revised and expanded second edition of Timon Screech's definitive "Sex and the Floating World" offers a new assessment of the genre of Japanese paintings and prints known as shunga. Changes in Japanese law in the 1990s enabled erotic images to be published without fear of prosecution, and many shunga picture-books have since appeared. There has, however, been very little attempt to situate the imagery within the contexts of sexuality, gender or power.Questions of aesthetics, and of whether shunga deserve a place in the official history of Japanese art, have dominated, and the question of the use of these images has been avoided. Timon Screech seeks to re-establish shunga in a proper historical frame of culture and creativity.
A Is for Amour (Erotic Alphabet)... A Is For Amour, B Is For Bondage, C Is For Co-Eds and D Is For Dress-Up
kick off a new series from Alison Tyler and Cleis Press. From Amour to
Zippers, this alphabetical extravaganza of erotic delights features 26
hot volumes of explicit, playful stories.
A Is For Amour
begins the series with arousing tales of desire from writers such as
Saskia Walker and R. Gay. From Tsaurah Litzky’s “Sharing the Love,”
about a risqué three-way between two partners and their long-time
friend, to Le Petit Déjeuner by Jeremy Edwards, where love is blind
enough to make Cleveland seem like Paris, these writers show why love
makes the world go ’round.
The Art of Arousal: A Celebration of Erotic Art throughout History... Well-known sex therapist Westheimer here presents a provocative, richly eclectic, inspirational collection of erotic art.

I Is for Indecent (Erotic Alphabet)...
"This book is quirkier, stranger and darker than any of her other
anthologies that I know of. These stories answer the question: Is
anything considered indecent these days, even by those who consider
themselves sexually free?....These stories take risks and leak out of a
predictable marketing niche. They could inspire you to find the sides
of yourself that you've kept hidden from the light of day, desires
which still feel indecent." -- Jean Roberta-Erotic Revealed Online
Adrian Borda... A fantastic romanian surreal artist: Adrian Borda, the visual alchemist.
Dirty Girls... What do women really want? To be sensually seduced or pressed up
against the wall for a quickie? To be tantalized by a peep show or the
chance to join the mile high club?
Acclaimed erotica writer and
editor Rachel Kramer Bussel knows: They want it all. They want to be
worshiped, ordered around, sent blindly into ecstasy, and made hot in
front of a mirror. They want strangers bearing ice cubes on a hot day
and to be the party favor passed around among guests. They want sex at
the office and in the great outdoors and on trains and airplanes. They
want sex with the whole United States of America (or, at least, part of
it). They want to be wooed, seduced, flirted with, taken. They want to
handpick their lovers and make them do their bidding. They want men,
women, and sometimes both at the same time.

art form today. Bondage artist and educator Lee "Bridgett" Harrington
takes you step-by-step through a variety of concepts and ties, giving
you the tools to make aesthetically rewarding rope work.
Henri Matisse... Henri Matisse (31 December 1869 – 3 November 1954) was a French artist, known for his use of colour and his fluid, brilliant and original draftsmanship. As a draftsman, printmaker, and sculptor, but principally as a painter, Matisse is one of the best-known artists of the 20th century. Although he was initially labeled as a Fauve (wild beast), by the 1920s, he was increasingly hailed as an upholder of the classical tradition in French painting. His mastery of the expressive language of colour and drawing, displayed in a body of work spanning over a half-century, won him recognition as a leading figure in modern art.
Big Spankable Asses... When three Chicago girlfriends find they aren't getting any, they get
serious. They want men who know their way around a woman's body--and
