Erotic art auction coming up

Next week I'm entering ten drawings into an Erotic Art Auction through the Guild of Erotic Artists and that's got me thinking - I thought maybe this blog might be the place to give you a chance to bid for some of my artwork too - what do you think?

I'll feature a piece of artwork (or maybe two or three) and up to a particular date to be set, I'll accept "sealed bids" by email from anyone who is interested in buying. If the bids don't reach the reserve price, then the artwork will not be sold. If the bids do reach the reserve price, then the highest one gets the artwork and once I have received payment by Paypal I will send the piece of artwork on to you, in whichever country you are in, and will pay the postage costs myself.

So, anyone interested in that as a concept?

Relishing new beginnings

My new friend Stuart rang me the other day to say that later on in the year he's been booked in to do a talk to a local group of 50 or so writers, and has asked me if I'd like to go along to hear him speak, as I think he's going to talk about his experience of being drawn by me, probably in a bit of a humorous way - it made me smile at the thought, so I said I'd be glad to! A couple of days after that he rang again to confirm it, and asked if I'd also like to speak to the group for a few minutes or so, and after the briefest of moments to think about it - I said I would.... it should be fun........ if I don't upset them too much.... "Hi, my name's Jackie Adshead and I'm an erotic artist"..........sharp intake of breath from the collective audience......!!!! LOL Well. if the Women's Institute can stand it, I'm sure local writers can too - I do ordinary landscapes, and flowers, and paintings of vanilla things too, you know!!! Tee hee!

Chatting with a friend the other day, she said that a friend of hers had seen an erotic painting of mine, and had screamed out loud when she saw it, and covered her eyes in mock horror - I know I like a reaction to my art, but I did wonder if this seems somewhat extreme (LOL). She did then spend fifteen minutes staring very intently at it, and analysing it. This was the painting that caused the reaction. I suppose I'm so used to painting erotic art, I forget that some people are only used to chocolate box pictures of fluffy kittens and horses in fields.....

And this week I've spent a lot of time thinking of pastel shades. They're not colours that I usually go for on their own, because I normally paint with dramatic colours. But, I'm getting into the subtleties of these really beautiful colours, and liking where they are taking me, so far. I'm half way through a painting using them, and liking the restraint I'm putting on myself to keep to the soft pinks, blues, oranges and sunshine yellows that I'm using. I shall be interested to see how the painting turns out when its finished....... Does that sound odd, that even I don't know how the painting will look when its complete, and I'm creating it! Usually, I know exactly, and I think I actually do know....thinking about it - I can see it in my minds eye already.

Bringing in the new year the right way!

Well, first post of the new year, and I can certainly say that I brought it in the right way - for an Erotic Artist!!! :)

I attended a New Years Eve party locally, and along with some people I knew there, there were a lot I didn't, which is often the case with parties. And this party had more than 300 people there, some dressed up to the nines, some had come in fancy dress, and some just in smart casual clothes, so it was an interesting mix of all adult ages and all styles. So, as is the way with parties, you walk around abit with a drink in your hand, and a smile on your face, and talk to people. And some people stand there, looking enigmatic, some are extrovert, some more reserved, some smile back, and some you interact with. And I love people watching, because I'm an artist, and I particularly like looking at people - gorgeous girls, sexy guys, erotic women, appealing men. And sometimes I'll make the first move, and sometimes they will......

........but there were two guys at this particular party that caught my eye..... two tall, dark and handsome men in their 30s, who I had never laid eyes on before. They stood there quietly at the blackjack table, playing confidently, the occasional word to each other. I stood on the other side of the room to them and the minute I eyed them from behind, I KNEW I had to go over to speak to them. So, like a moth to a flame, I went over, and stood quietly behind them. And when one turned to me, I looked him straight in the eye and said how much I liked his suit. He, like his companion, was dressed, like a lot of men in the room, in a black suit, white shirt and black tie, and looked as dashing and sexy as most slim men do in that get-up. (MMMm...... oh yes!!!! Think James Bond!) He was happy to hear that I liked his choice of clothing for the evening, especially when I told him and his companion that I was an Erotic Artist - and we chatted a bit and they suggested they might like posing for me. I agreed that it might be a good idea.... for you see, unlike the rest of the men in the room, the back of their jackets, shirts and trousers had been cut away..... to reveal that they were both wearing ......black bras, black stockings and suspenders and black panties underneath!!!! What AWESOME fancy dress outfits they were!!!!

I LOVEEDDDDD ITTTTTT!!!!!

I've never seen anything like it it before!!! No wonder I had to speak to them!!! Tee Hee!!!!! MMm.... there's something devilishly delightful about a sexy male body in something so naughtily erotic as womens clothing - although the taller of the two said he found Primarks panties chaffed a bit.........
