This intimate and elegant hardcover art book features contemporary
oil paintings of explicit, celebratory, whimsical and intense
sexual subject matter by Laura BenAmots. The raw private images are
both tantalizing and surprising. The work is non-exploitative
mature and playful. Clearly these paintings reflect a fearless
celebration of the physical. Eros On Canvas has a clean calm design
that creates a type of purity or visual "white noise" in which to
view the unambiguous representations float. The title sheet is
followed by a table of contents, words (artist's bio and
interview), forward by Noel Black and an introduction. The
paintings are separated into 3 groups: first is a brief
introduction with an eclectic sampling of other artworks by Laura
BenAmots concluding with three paintings titled the muses from the
portrait series of beautiful men that led to Eros On Canvas; next
is a chapter titled Through The Peep Hole comprised of nine
miniature images of up-close-and-personal body parts; finally, the
body of the book is titled Catching Breath and features a full
range of medium and large scale flesh-toned canvases rendering
highly private sexual interludes. The book concludes with 2
facsimiles of hand written and typed erotic poems by the painter.
Throughout his career, Gustav Klimt completed hundreds of paintings
and thousands of drawings of delicate beauty, many of them
featuring the female form. Designed to imitate an artist's
sketchbook, this gorgeous volume reproduces Klimt's most beautiful
erotic sketches and watercolors. The experience of viewing them
will awaken the senses and afford the reader the guilty pleasure of
leafing through an artist's most private visions.
We all want to see Snow White with tattoos, right? Well, at least
photographer Robert Alvarado does. In his newest collection of
high-octane pin-up images, Alvarado shows how his own style of
shooting and editing, which has been called cartoonish,
illustrated, and painted marries perfectly with cosplay. In more
than 150 vibrant, color images, see Alvarado's take on this pop
culture phenomenon as he captures models "cosing" as characters
from Buck Rogers, Deadpool, Star Wars, your favorite D.C. and
Marvel franchises, and much more. From fantasy to sci-fi and Disney
to video games, the models embody and costume many beloved
characters while striking traditional and contemporary pin-up
poses. Complete with some behind-the-scenes shots and details on
Alvarado's approach to working with the models, this is the perfect
collection of images for fans and students of pop culture and
pin-up photography.
Tattoo photography pioneer Justice Howard documents the American
tattoo community with her highly iconic images. Howard effortlessly
captures the essence of her subjects' triumphs, as well as their
frailties. Her images enhance both the male and female physical
forms, highlighting their strengths and prowess, and expose hidden
elements of the human condition in all its kaleidoscopic beauty.
Gracing the pages of this graphic dossier are fifty-two models,
including Malice, Xanthia Pink, Dejah Garcia, Christine Fury, Mia
Tyler, and Amelia Nightmare. Tattoo artist luminaries, such as Mark
Mahoney, Freddy Negrete, Rick Walters, Kari Barba, and Robert
Atkinson also make appearances, as well as rock gods Evan Seinfeld
and Dave Navarro, Sons of Anarchy actor Rusty Coones, Black Veil
Brides, Diego Verduzco, and UFC champion Kimo Leopoldo. In front of
Justice's lens, these figures appear quite capable of escaping from
the pages and conquering the world by storm.
