General information
For models I seek women who enjoy the thrill of being seen, admired and becoming art. There is no greater beauty in all of nature than that of the female form. Whether one sees that beauty as the culmination of millions of years of evolution as some:
"Every woman has a beautiful body - beautiful because it is the brilliant end-point of millions of years of evolution. It is loaded with amazing adjustments and subtle refinements that make it the most remarkable organism on the planet."
Desmond Morris 'The Naked Woman'
Or the signature of divine intelligence:
”Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful, for beauty is God's handwriting -- a wayside sacrament.
Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing.”
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
I fall somewhere inbetween, what matters most to me is that the beauty of a woman is recognized, captured, and crafted for posterity in the form of art as an endearing and enduring homage.
I'm currently no longer doing hired work, I'm only doing projects that sound like fun and that I can use in my portfolio (or want to hang on my wall). If you have an idea, run it by me and we'll do trade for disk.
Current project I'm seeking models for:
Mock Movie Posters
Series of images as faux movies posters of powerful sexy female hero types of various genres.
Examples: western (Quick & the Dead), kung fu (Hero), samurai (Lady Snowblood), sci-fi (Barbarella), horror (Halloween), blaxploitation (Coffy), action (La Femme Nikita), fantasy (Xena), etc...
Erotic Tarot Series
A series of images in the form of tarot cards, so far I have Death and The Magician, need many more.
Also not limited to Tarot only, I'd like to work on doing some of the Mantegna deck (Google it), specifically the 9 Muses.
