An improbable bouquet, no. 4 8 in x 8 in, oil on panel One of a *handful* (lol) of little paintings I just finished for the @dandyland.bsky.social erotic art market this weekend #GayArt #NYC #OilPainting
Oil painting of a muscular, golden-hued young man with dark hair, seated, leaning back, in the act of masturbating. The slightly scrunched eyebrows, closed eyes, and mouth slightly open create an expression showing he is close to climax. the figure is surround by energetic, slightly abstract green and white brushwork suggesting he's enveloped in thick foliage dotted with a stream of little white blossoms behind his left shoulder.Promo image for a gay art market. black background with white graphic that suggests mickey mouse in shape, but with a bullet hole in the left temple and blood streaming down. text reads: Dandyland Cartoon Graveyard, queer erotic art and gift market. October 10, Saturday, 2-8pm. Boxers HK, 735 9th Avenue at 50th street. Affordable art and gifts, loose morals, free entry, 21 and over. Dress to theme encouraged.

An aptitude for devotion, no. 1 8 in x 8 in, oil on panel #GayArt #OilPainting
oil painting showing the torso of a young man, with short brown hair, pale skin, wearing a white t-shirt framed by the crotch of another man, standing, with his sizable endowment hanging out of the fly of his short. the standing man has one leg forward coming at the viewer, and with his hand he's gently pushing the face of the lower man toward his cock. the two figures are in sharp, chiaroscuro contrast against a dark background. the scene is surrounded by energetic, abstract brushwork in vibrant shades of lavender, purple, and green.

The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting.

When you're constantly just trying to keep the lights on and put food on the table, you don't have the time or energy to fight the system. Keeping people hanging on by a thread isn't a policy failure; it's how they keep us too tired to push back.
