Art (And Relationships) Are Messy

That's the beauty of both, right? 

I've documented a number of them, and there are a few unique elements to them I'd like to discuss. 

1) The paint rubs off.  If you have a lot of contact, the paint will wear off. Same if you apply liquids.  You can see it falling apart on the painting below after they did some extensive posing using each other's body weight.  Originally I hated posting stuff like this because it felt unfinished. Now there is a certain charm to the destruction. David and Taylor are featured below.

2) Some of the relationships you see are fictional. When I did Contact I paired up a lot of unique scenarios that I had not seen in art. Like a polyamorous relationship between three women. I wanted better representation, but did not have the real life examples to paint. Athena, Chelsea, Erin, and myself had fun creating an artistic narrative for the three for the purpose of this project. I've been wanting to work with Athena and Chelsea again actually, and both have applied for Tarot. Hopefully the next chapter (Chelsea needs a sponsor)@

3) When I shot a lot of the sexier stuff I did not really have a way of conveying it properly without the art getting messy. A lot of early stuff was done standing up, like with Hunter, Finn, and Mitchell below. I would ask people to pretend kiss, or lightly touch each other.  Then near the end of the session, it was whatever fit best!

4) Facebook censorship influenced a lot of my female designs because of multiple reportings and having my account banned for days.  Even if the nipples were photoshopped off, they would come after me. So I had to start building over the breasts to hide the nipples. Or I'd have to crop the picture high. I. hated. that.

5) Many of the real life couples depicted (like David and Taylor) have since broken up. Their art lives on though, capturing a moment in time when everything was blissful! Do you ever wish you could go back to simpler times?

Thanks for reading and your feedback! It's been requested that I include more women on here, so please look forward to that peppering the newsfeed! I really appreciate your support loves.
