Are you in or visiting Seattle? Have you worn out your leather or totally out of lube? Well, look no further! Doghouse Leathers, Seattle’s purveyors of all things pervy, is now stocked with handmade, blank greeting cards made by yours truly! Be sure to check out their great space, pick up a big toy or three, chat up the friendly staff and be sure to get a grip on some arty cards. Tell them I sent you and ask for them by name!

From now until June 1st – Any prints or cards bought of my image, “Cockabilly“, I will give 50% of my take to help those in need in the Nashville flooding through the Red Cross. Temporary shelters are at capacity, missing people are unaccounted for, many homes are under water, there is a water conservation emergency, much of Nashville’s economic base is threatened by the epic flood damage.

Just drop me an email detailing how many cards or 13″x19″ prints you want and we’ll set up the PayPal connection to get you your new piece of art for a good cause.

And now, the watersports and rubber skate board deck.

What do you think? If there an opinion on whether you’d like to have the boards finished with the trucks and wheels plus the grip tape on the top where your feet would go or not – let me know!

The first course has been scarfed down, how about some seconds? I’m thinking about submitting these to the Seattle Erotic Art Festival this year and some other contests I’ve discovered.

This is the second skate deck I’ve just finished – Bootfetish.

Enjoy!

Buy any 13″x19″ print available in my portfolio (or commission a piece) and get 12 blank greeting cards – FREE! That’s a $60 value for a limited time only. Choose your dirty dozen from your favorite works or get 12 of the same image. It’s all up to you! Contact me for details. Each card is 4″x6″, blank, hand-made, comes with a handy envelope and clear plastic sleeve for protection.

As I said before, I have been working on my first skate deck and it’s now done! I’m thinking of sending it over to the printers to get actualized. What do you think?

I know all you sock freaks (yeah, yeah, takes one to know one) will enjoy this one and as an extra bonus – if you like it so much you can download some desktop images I did of it to enjoy over in the downloads section. There’s one for 1024×768 pixels and one for guys with monitors like mine at 1920×1200.

Enjoy!

You see them all over the place and in a wide variety of personal styles. The UK gave us skinheads and the more enduring image of what a punk is and Southern California answered back with their own subculture – guys on skateboards. Sporty, sweaty, sinewy daredevils on planks of wood and tacked on trucks and wheels. Scourge of public sidewalks and police everywhere, rulers of the abandoned drained, below-ground pool, and seemingly closet sneaker fetishists! My heart skips a beat when I hear the oncoming CLACK CLACK CLACK of ball bearings and board on the cracks of the sidewalk.

My love of boys on boards goes long and deep and I’ve nearly wrecked several cars craning my neck, mesmerized, to look upon such youthful beauty and rebellion, soaking in every drop of sweat and flouting fashion norms back in the day, and clocking every scratch and scrape of an all-balls-out ride of their life as if to say, “I’m fuckin’ invincible!”

Always having a soft spot for certain subcultures and all they encompass on so many levels for me, and loving some of the most amazing art personalizing these boards they ride, I thought, “What a great place to plunk down some kinky art!”

I’ve stuck a deal with a skateboard deck art/design company to produce 3 unique new designs made specifically for the wooden canvas, which I will make available to you all as well!

The themes? Well, it wouldn’t be me without the fetish exploration, but whereas I usually approach something from the position of a cherished memory, this time I’m focusing purely on the idea of a chosen specific fetish near and dear to my heart.

My first fetish I ever came to grips with was my love of sweaty socks and socked feet – so the first board will deal specifically with that theme. The second deck will be adorned with a very similar styled board dealing with very sniffable and lickable leather boots. The third perverse panel drips with piss and watersports. Watch this space, true believers.

I think I better go take care of this stiffy.

Originally, this was a concept design I proposed to Ft. Troff and I fear it fell on deaf ears. *Shrug*
I thought it was too good to pass up myself and I think I’ll use it. It’s a first pass and I wouldn’t mind feedback and comments. I decided to do a different approach with the art being so colorful and go for spot colors and something really messy, yet keeping the character unmistakably done by me.

Originally, “Splat!” was “Impale” and I thought maybe I was dangerously close to anal pare territory or funnier, Vlad the Impaler territory… hence the change. Again, click on the image for full a larger view size.

Thankfully, some much needed good news arrived this week.

DV8, a men’s boutique in London, has become the latest casualty in my never ending onslaught to conquer the world with my illustrative perversions. Mid to late October, they’ll be carrying 22 of my works on blank greeting cards at their SoHo store on Old Compton Street. Favorite pieces like El Diablo, Sneaker Freak, Bootlicker, and many more will be on display and for purchase on the cheap. Tell them I sent you!

A 3rd batch of cards has also made it’s way to Rock Hard in San Francisco, CA and I thank them for their continued belief in bringing my work to you out here on the west coast!

Also, the contract arrived this weekend to seal the deal to become part of the 2nd annual anthology, Best Erotic Comics of 2009, published by Last Gasp out of San Francisco. I’ll be sending the art in and tying up the loose ends to take the story, “‘Dem Bones”, originally published in Hard To Swallow #3, to this new publication.

Hey! I’m alive at 35. Yes, it’s that time of year again where another year peels off the calendar and you look back and shake your head thinking, “I lived through all that?”

Mua – ha – ha – ha!

Besides, eating good food for my birthday meal over at The Better Half Bistro should be enough to see me through the weekend, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting more because if you know me – I’m one greedy pig. These times are when I get silly and treat myself to all sorts of goodies. I’ve already bought my ticket to go see Rancid next month. I’ve also ‘upgraded’ my dildos to a much wider girth and I’ve taken it out for a test drive – twice! And to round out my weekend, I’m expecting to get some hot man-on-man(-on-man?) sex this weekend, toys in tow, but if only I could have found this duvet from Mind Fetish Bedding for my full sized bed in time…

Fisting, anyone?

It would be fun to collaborate with them and do some kinky sheets with some of my work on it. What do you think? Ah well, I just need to find my Nasty Pig Sheets and settle for that.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes from all over the globe these past few days! Here’s to another year of the debauched and ridiculous to make you grab your dick and growl “Fwwwooooaaar!”
