These turned out as solid compositions, that could be displayed singularly, to tell their own story. They are passionate and deeply erotic. The hands are what were especially important to me with these three pieces. I enjoy drawing hands to give gestural and expressive suggestions that highlight the communication between humans. The art of touching can be an exclusive act of erotic love. As a gay man drawing the intimacy between men, is a gift I do not take for granted!
1. Body Machine # 103
2. Body Machine # 104
3. Body Machine # 105
1. Body Machine # 103, displays another close-up of the muscle bottom on top. I like drawing partial areas of certain figures and scenes, to give a different perspective. It also grants an appreciation for the view, by noticing details, that could easily be overlooked. The angle here is an arousing one to me, because of its focus on the intercourse taking place from this position. The bigger man is seemingly in control by sitting on top, but can still be dominated by certain thrusts penetrating from below.
2. Body Machine # 104, is another one of my favorites. I was definitely unsure how I could nail the interlocked hands between these two, especially from this angle! But this scene turned out better than I expected. I am very proud of it. The hands came together nicely, to express an intensely sexual dialogue between these men. The expressions on their faces enhances my rendering of interlocked fingers, during a moment of passion.
3. Body Machine # 105, translates like a romantic poem to me. The surrounding darkness of their combined bodies, with a reflection of glowing candlelight burning nearby. I wanted to capture the massive size of one figure, compared to another. The bottom is wrapped around him and obviously enraptured by what he is experiencing internally. I occasionally scribble ballpoint pen lines, and layer my darkest washes over them to build value. The effect is a textured one, that creates character and mood to my statements.
