Bodies of power

9th January 2026

Today’s new artist – the 700th on the site! – is the remarkable and openly bisexual Tamara de Lempicka, way ahead of her time with her languid, sculptural naked bodies, the artist who in the 1920s and 30s eroticised modern female sexuality. See her work now by clicking here.

The colour of gay

7th January 2026

The colourful pastels by Michael Breyette, today’s new artist, occupy a distinctive niche within contemporary gay figurative painting, bridging the personal and the universal through their unabashed celebration of the male body. Sadly we lost Michael to cancer just over a month ago, but you can see his art now by clicking here.

L’Enfer des Classiques

4th January 2026

A little amuse-bouche for you all today, a portfolio from the great André Collot illustrating a collection of classic French erotic texts, demonstrating his mastery of simple yet refined composition and colouring. See L’Enfer des Classiques now by clicking here.

Queer as it comes

2nd January 2026

For the first new artist of 2026 we bring you the work of New York master of queerotica Fyodor Pavlov. Drawing skilfully on the traditions of late nineteenth and early twentieth century erotic illustration, his experimental, playful, transgressive art is a joy to behold – see it now by clicking here.

Homo eroticus

31st December 2025

 

The work of today’s new artist, the last of the year, Cyril Georget’s art is unashamedly homoerotic. His work explores desire as a lived, quietly observed reality, the male body presented as vulnerable, sensual, and emotionally present. See his work now by clicking here.

 

Amour-propre?

28th December 2025

Some lovely 1920s French colour illustrations from today’s new artist, Jean-Paul Quint. They’re for an edition of Paul Verlaine’s poems about women, and tell their own story of intimacy gone slightly awry. See them all now by clicking here.

Nature-ism

26th December 2025

The soft curves and fleshy tones of Falk Gernegross’s bodies – he’s today’s new artist – fluctuate between realism and a cartoon-like style, strange yet familiar; timeless but also strongly contemporary; erotic and innocent. See Gernegross’s work now by clicking here.

Unbelievable?

24th December 2025

Today we bring you the artistic world of Rajah Foo, and his exploration of the strange sexualised borderlands of nature and desire. His muse is represented in dreamlike, surreal scenes populated by grotesque characters from the depths of his imagination. See his work now by clicking here, and make sure to explore his portfolios The Fabulous Art of Rajah Foo and Hôtel de la Providence.

Holy orders

21st December 2025

Another almost unknown French illustrator for you today – José David’s stylish 1974 drawings for an edition of Diderot’s La Religieuse, about a young girl, Suzanne, forced into a convent, and her attempts to escape both her incarceration and the advances of a lesbian mother superior. See David’s work now by clicking here.

Exploring sensuality

17th December 2025

Today’s new artist is the German Detlev Foth, whose large canvases and drawings explore the erotic with a candid array of naked bodies and sexual encounters in his trademark interplay of corporeal reality and expressive suggestion. See Foth’s work now by clicking here.
