Tom of Finland Foundation 40th Anniversary Donations (Patreon)

These physical images were produced for the Tom of Finland Foundation 40th Anniversary. The first colour image with the bikes is titled "Live Fast, Ride Hard". The second with the pirate on the cannon is called "Cannon Frotter". The third with that man being dominated represents the plight of sex workers in the current capitalist system. The images following are the various drafts previous to the finished image. I've also added a sienna pastel of a Bugbear tasting his spum, just because I felt you guys deserve it 🫶

The Foundation had contacted me as they were looking for contributions to exhibit. I decided to gift them these three pieces as I passionately believe in their mission for preserving erotic artwork.

The colour piece uses acrylic paint and coloured pencils. The other two use charcoal, pastel and graphite. The colour piece did scan rather weirdly with this blue noise as I had put a blue wash on it. In person it's not apparent. And the charcoal pieces appear much darker and intense in their contrast.

The dates these are being shown are under review, but I think they're hoping for a show in Berlin, London and LA.

I hope you guys think they're alright. I'm working on another little piece that should turn up before our viking boys. Look out for it soon!

Thanks heaps for your support 🙏🙏🙏
