This book of 112 pictures is a selection of drawings and paintings
representing Jindrich's artistic endeavours over the last three
decades. The collection contains real-life portraits as well as
images and portraits based on the works of other artists. Some of
the works in the book are the product of Jindrich's own
imagination. In addition, there is a section containing icons and
symbols and two sections picturing animals (domestic and wild).
A series of 122 beautiful nude portraits of English women linked by
a common theme: all were taken using the bare minimum of equipment:
either Window light or DIY worklights. Keeping the theme simple
allowed both Photographer and subjects to explore the creative
possibilities of each location, leading to an inspiring variety in
the resulting photographs. Mark Chambers is a Photographer based in
rural Dorset in the UK. This is his first book, two volumes of
Erotic photography are due later in 2013.
This book of surrealistic ink drawings and poetic verse is an
imagined retelling of the legend of Lilith With The Long Hair.
Lilith, according to Jewish biblical lore, was the first wife of
Adam, and was cast out of Eden for refusing to submit to Adam,
instead of becoming his equal. She was then condemned by God to
forever seduce mortal men in their sleep, and the products of these
nocturnal unions were demons, given birth by Lilith, and consigned
to populate Hell. Many men up to this day have met with their own
Lilith, and the demons created by that haunting encounter will
always reside in the darker corners of their memories, posing as
twisted travesties of their ideal woman. The drawings within this
book are attempts to give visual form to those travesties. Many
will be grotesque, some may be humorous, and a few may even be
beautiful. But the vividness of their character will only be as
keen as one's memory of Lilith With The Long Hair.
This selection of drawings of classical, romantic, and a few modern
composers represents part of a larger collection of drawings made
as cover illustrations for KMFA-FM, a listener-supported radio
station in Austin, Texas.

This outstanding collection of erotic drawings is understated on
the outside while imaginatively limitless underneath. The Artist s
passion for the absolute made her abstracting the form to its
barest parameters without losing eloquence and lyricism. Thriving
on rich sensual textures, the visual discourse carried over 392
pages is unfailingly mysterious and compelling a minimalist
masterwork. AUTHOR S BIOGRAPHY Throughout her school years Milena
maintained a great love for both mathematics and the written word,
earning numerous awards in mathematical and literature
competitions. As a graduate in architecture, she had a prolific
career while also becoming a HarperCollins award-winning painter.
Her life-long interest in root causes and deepest meanings has
filled her notebooks with poetry, and led her to the study of
philosophy, sacred geometry and spiritual healing. For the last 15
years, Milena has been devoted to her arts and voluntary work. She
is the author of: "MEMENTO 13 Remembering the Self through the
Geometry of God's Love," METAMORPHOSIS through the Omega Dimension
"The SEED on a 7x7 Evolutionary Trajectory," "Words of Silence" and
"Erotic Abstracts." "
