Ryan McGinley

Some strangely beautiful, raw, in the moment photography by New York based photographer Ryan McGinley. (via).

Erotic Artists.org

Erotic Artists.org is a free online photo gallery where anyone can display photos of their erotic artwork. Definitely one to bookmark as you’ll need much more than just a few hours to go through all the work that lives on the site as well as the other spin-off sites.

Joe Capobianco

Female fantasy art and great tattoo galleries by New Haven Connecticut based tattoo artist Joe Capobianco. (via).

Gabriele Magurno

Tasty eye candy by Italian graphic designer Gabriele Magurno.

Cicatrice

Found this amazing site off sugarcut: Montreal based performer and model Ella (aka Cicatrice), was severly burned as a child on approximately one third of her skin’s surface. The resulting scarring is still markedly visible, yet bizarrely beautiful in the collection of artistic nudes, shot by various photographers exhibited on her site – cicatrix.net. Be sure to check out the detailed story of her accident which is an affecting and fascinating read.

blackmoontides

You’d be forgiven if you think you’ve entered another Japanese web site when you visit blackmoontides but Rem is a female freelance illustrator based in Houston, TX USA. Love her illustration style.

Tatando

Beautiful and twisted at the same time. Just how we love it! Fantastic drawings at Tatando.

Spamaro＊69

Sexy, cutesy Japanese style at Spamaro＊69.

Ana Laura Aláez

Out there! Ana Laura Aláez uses a mix of sculpture, drawing, architecture, video, photography and music. She also had her own page in the Spanish edition of VOGUE between the years 1999 – 2001 and regularly writes and designs features for lifestyle magazines. (via).

Pinkspiders

Brachypelman’s wonderful Pinkspiders.

Every Evil

Every Evil. Fantastic work by Japanese illustrator Ayaco. Some of it’s beautiful and some of it’s a little twisted. Love the use of pastel colours.

Guo Jian

I’ve recently ventured overseas for a short jaunt into unfamiliarity, over to China for what feels now, like a very long (yet insanely short) 3 weeks of my life. I stumbled across Guo Jian’s work on my return to Australia and it captivated me straight away. His work so closely reflects the communist propaganda posters you see littering many Chinese homes and public spaces. I love the twist he puts on this prolific media, (which i found quite shocking during my travels). I hope you enjoy as well.

Doping-Pong

Doping-Pong is Russian, has very strange audio loops and some great diverse illustration work in the gallery.

Bela Borsodi

Conceptually brilliant photography by Bela Borsodi. (via).

Julie Rrap

Sydney based artist Julie Rrap has some very compelling work that we suggest you check out. Julie uses a myriad of media for her work, from photography to sculpture. I really like her work in photography and image manipulation. Be sure to have a look at her works from her “Soft Targets” exhibition which was shown at the Arc1 Gallery in Melbourne Australia in 2004. Julie also recently had an exhibition called “Fall Out” exhibited at the Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery in Sydney.

Dadanoias

The lovely Kahlo of Dadanoias fame has updated her Flickr site with more great themed sets.

Jess Fink

Jess Fink has been doing erotic comics for Eros/Fantagraphics books for the past 3 years. Her erotic paintings have also been featured in galleries and on other blogs. Recently, Jess (and a few other erotic comics writers) started up Adult Webcomics, an excellent free erotic comics site (to check out Jess’ work on this site go to “comics” then “Jess Fink”).

You can check out Jess’ official illustration site here, she’s currently working on a site just for her erotic work, but in the meantime (as a special treat!) you can view some of her diverse erotic work here.
