The Erotic Mind of Howard Cruse — Podcast #156 — 09/28/09

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

I have a spectacular interview for you. I welcome the granddaddy of gay comix, Howard Cruse. He is here as part of The Erotic Mind
podcast series. As you know, for well over a year now I’ve been chatting with noted erotic artists, both visual and literary, from all over the freakin world in an effort to try to uncover something of the creative process involved in this specialized art form. Howard is the most senior person to join me in this effort. And he brings with him a historical perspective unlike that of any other of my previous guests.

In fact, I think it is safe to say that very gay or lesbian who has put pen to paper to create a comix or cartoon over the last 40 years can trace his or her lineage back to the groundbreaking work of my guest. This is remarkable stuff, kids; you don’t want to miss a moment of this.

Howard and I discuss:

His erotic novel, Stuck Rubber Baby.
Why he’s know as a bigfoot cartoonist.
Adding words to his illustrations.
Why he contends his work is not erotic per se.
From Headrack to Claude.
The evolution of the character, Headrack. in Barefootz.
The man behind Claude of Then There Was Claude.
Being there — The Stonewall Inn, June 1969.
His personal coming out story.

Be sure to check out the amazing world of Howard Cruse, including his personal blog, on his site HERE.

Hey sex fans,

It’s the Equinox everybody! The relentless march of time brings us yet another change in the seasons. Isn’t it amazing? It seems like the solstice was only a few weeks ago. Well it’s autumn here in the northern hemisphere, and that’s my favorite season. So I’m looking forward to what’s to come. I hope you feel the same.

As you know, last week I had the pleasure of introducing you to a superb photographer from Ontario Canada, Leanne Bell . This is Part 2 of our chat for The Erotic Mind series. Where we converse with noted erotic artists of every stripe in an effort to uncover something of the creative process involved in this specialized art form.

Leanne and I discuss:

Being a female photographer who shoots women.

The Erotic Mind of Leanne Bell — Podcast #152 — 09/14/09

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

Over the next two weeks, and in both of my podcast series on Mondays and Wednesdays, I will be featuring two absolutely amazing women. Both of these very talented women are taking a lead role in helping change our society’s perception of female sexuality and the gift of physical beauty. And each is doing it from what might, at first glance, appear to be the polar opposite of the other. I love my work! You’ll just have to tune in on both days to see what I mean.

Today I have the honor of introducing you to an exquisite photographer from Ontario Canada. We scrutinize The Erotic Mind of Leanne Bell. She, along with her equally talented husband, Dwayne, takes the photography of women to a new level of simplicity and sophistication. They unabashedly celebrate female physical beauty in the most extraordinary and riveting way. It’s as if they dress their models in nudity. You won’t want to miss a moment of this intriguing conversation.

Leanne and I discuss:

Her photography being both eye candy and mind candy.
The apparent contradiction of nudity and moral values.
The art of poising her models in everyday situations.
Nudity as an organic part of the photograph.
Cultural opposition to celebrating female physical beauty.
The gift of beauty and how it is often denigrated.

And for more of Leanne’s thoughts and vision, I encourage you to visit her website HERE. And from there, you’ll be able to link through to her other sites, including the thought provoking: superbeauty.org

The Erotic Mind of Krysztof Nemeth — Podcast #139 — 07/20/09

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

So ya know how I keep telling you that The Erotic Mind
podcast series brings you the celebrated erotic artwork from of artists all over the world, right? Well then, today we go pretty far a field indeed. We travel to the deepest, darkest recess of…Kansas to bring you the exceptionally talented Krysztof Nemeth.

You recall the immortal words of Jessica Rabbit, right? “I’m not bad, I’m just drawn that way.” We have Krysztof and his ilk to thank for that. You see he follows in the long and honored tradition of artists who produce Pin-up art. This art form is so pervasive and universally recognizable that, for many of us, it was our very first introduction to world of erotica of any sort.

Throughout this series of conversations with noted erotic artists we’ve uncovered quite a bit about the creative process involved in this specialized art form. We’ve visited with numerous artists who create their art in a variety of media. We’ve discovered that the term “erotic art” covers a vast array of visual and literary expressions. Some are overtly graphic; others, like Krysztof’s, are subtlety suggestive. But all reflect the irrepressible spirit of the human sexual experience.

Krysztof and I discuss:

The long and honored tradition of Pin-up art.
His idealized yet attainable depictions of women.
How he got his start as an artist, as an erotic artist.
Where he finds his models
The distinction, if any, between an artist and an illustrator.

I invite you to discover Krysztof and his memorable artwork on his site HERE.

The Erotic Mind of René Capone — Podcast #132 — 06/22/09

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

Judging from the comments pouring in from all over, I guess ya’ll are really enjoying these special pride month podcasts, huh? The last two weeks I featured the brilliant work of Mike. from MikeMen. Today and next week we have as our guest a gay visual artist of a completely different stripe. As you know, these podcasts are part of The Erotic Mind
series. We converse with noted erotic artists from all over the world in an effort to try to uncover something of the creative process involved in this specialized art form.

Today I have the honor of introducing you to a friend, someone I’ve known for several years. He is charming, funny and oh so talented. He is René Capone.

René is both an artist and a storyteller. In fact, I think he’s best described as an artist-storyteller. He imbues his creations, both lifelike and fantasy, with something of his own nature and life experience. He says it’s the job as an artist to explore the fundamental emotions of life; love, hate, jealousy, fear, anger and passion. And he does his job with a childlike simplicity, which is absolutely remarkable.

René’s work is a refreshing departure from the more explicit work of some of the other artists I’ve featured in this series. But as we’ll find out from René himself, eroticism has many dimensions. If art is truthful, he says, it will also be erotic.

René and I discuss:

The therapeutic nature of his art.
His graphic novel, Hedgehog Boy.
How he got his start as an artist, as an erotic artist.
The distinction, if any, between an artist and an illustrator.
The distinction, if any, between erotica and pornography.

Discover René and his memorable artwork on his site HERE.

The Erotic Mind of Mike — Podcast #128 — 06/08/09

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

How many of you know that June is Gay Pride month? Well it is! And if you don’t believe me, ask President Obama. He made the official declaration June 1st.
He is the first president in our glorious history to do so. So hurray for him! And an even bigger hurray for all us Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender people on this 40th anniversary of the birth of the modern gay rights movement.

To celebrate pride month, I will feature the brilliant work and thoughtful reflection of two renowned gay visual artists. These podcasts are part of The Erotic Mind
series, where we converse with noted erotic artists in an effort to try to uncover something of the creative process involved in this specialized art form.

Today I have the distinct pleasure of introducing you to the first of my special Pride guests. He is the spectacular artist, who goes by the name Mike. Perhaps you’ve already seen some of his distinctive work; it’s hard to miss, don’t cha know. His images are all over the internet as well as in magazines and in books.

Mike and I discuss:

How he got his start as an artist; as an erotic artist.
Where he finds his models.
What erotic art means to him.
The difference, if any, between an artist and an illustrator.
What makes some of his work erotic and other stuff pornographic.

Be sure to check out Mike, his delicious artwork, and his insightful blog HERE.
