Now every day can be Smutday!

Most kids at some point or other want to wear a cowboy hat and some chaps and ride a horse. Maybe get a badge and be a sheriff or be a bandit and ride through town shooting your pistols and stampeding cattle...okay, maybe that's just me. But it's a potent childhood fantasy, and sometimes it's a fantasy you don't outgrow. So today's Fetish Friday is for the Cowgirl and Cowboy in all of us.

The Penis Picture Post will be right up with more Cowpokes than you can poke a stick at!

Enjoy!

Hope everyone here in the U.S. is eating enough to keep them going for a week or two. After all, as my roommate told me today, it IS against the law to not overeat on Thanksgiving Day, right? So keep that American spirit going, guys, and eat until you pop!

I have a few more pics for the NC17 crowd coming up next, so check back after you get another slice of pumpkin pie, okay?

Enjoy!

Last Fetish Friday we had Horns and Tails, so I thought this week we'd check out the other side, and see what kind of smutty trouble we can get into while wearing angel's wings. Luckily for us, it turns out there are lots of smutty angels out there. For the NC17 crowd, there's another post coming up, so don't go anywhere!

Oh, and there are a few icons at the end - help yourself, but if you do, please credit Smutday!

Don't forget to click on the pic to see the larger sized versions of some of the pictures.

Enjoy!

For those of you who didn't catch it when I mentioned it on Halloween, we're continuing last month's theme this month, since I was a slug and didn't post a lot of what I had planned for October.  That means we're still working on Fantasy, Scifi and Horror in November, so I get to use my Horns and Tails pictures today for Fetish Fridays.  That's right, we've got tons of Horny Devils for you, and Satyrs, and Demons, and Minotaurs and...  I think you can get the idea.

As always, you can click on the picture to see them full-sized on my scrapbook.  For those of you that are members, the NC17 rated post will be coming up next.

Enjoy!

I got stuck doing the candy giveaway part of the day, and didn't get to post these until late, but hey, what else is new, right? If I posted them on time, you'd think there was something wrong with me. I've been on an extended mope lately, and didn't actually do much this month, so I'm extending the Fantasy, SciFi and Horror theme into next month. Hopefully, you'll get a chance to see all those pics I wanted to share with you, after all.

But for today, it's the Halloween pics. This bunch is heavy on the women, as usual - but the NC17 rated post coming up next is heavy on the men, so it all evens out in the end. I'm trying not to duplicate the last several years worth of Halloween pics, so there are some great ones I didn't use this year - if you're interested in checking them out - here's a link to the old posts - The Halloween Tag. As usual, click on the pictures to see the larger sizes.

Enjoy!

( just a few images )

That's right...October is the month for the fantastic and the horrific. I'm taking a wide view of the concepts - angels and devils, mermaids, centaurs and satyrs, aliens, tentacles, vampires and werewolves, zombies and ghosts, and even superheroes.  Anything goes.  And today I have a variety pack for you, to give you an idea of what I have in mind.  But feel free to interpret the theme however you want - I love it when you guys post. 

And for those of you new to smutday, please feel free to post anything at all, it doesn't need to have anything to do with the theme.  I just use that for inspiration.  Just make sure anything with naughty bits is behind a cut, and members locked.

Oh, and I owe BlackChaps a Superheroes post, so I thought I'd announce next week's Fetish Fridays post early.  If you've got Superheroes art/fanart you'd like to share, next Friday will be the perfect opportunity to post!

Just one post today - but we've got most of the bases covered - women and men, gay, lesbian and het.   And don't forget to click the picture to get larger sizes of some of today's art.

Enjoy!

 

I've been meaning to get a post or two of Sadao Hasegawa's art up for quite some time now, but my Hasegawa folder is such a mess that I've been putting it off, avoiding the cleanup I know I'll get into once I get started.  But since I really wanted to post his work before the second month of our Artist's Showcase is over, I decided to wade in and just grab some of my favorites.  So my files may still be a mess, but at least I got enough resolved to make a couple of good sized posts.

I tried to avoid using pictures I know I've posted before - there's so much of his work out there that I hate repeating myself.  So if you're new to smutday and are wondering what else I've posted by Hasegawa, you can check out the Sadao Hasegawa Gallery over on my Scrapbook.  The newest art is at the top, of course, but you can find the older pictures at the bottom of the gallery.   

Hasegawa was a fascinating artist - I love the way he mixed images from a number of different Asian, Indian and African cultures and beliefs together to form his art.  The link in the first paragraph will take you to the largest collection of his art that I've seen on the internet - I've found maybe half a dozen pictures that they don't have copies of on this site.  But with a lot of searching, I've found some much larger copies than what you may see there, so be sure and click through to the scrapbook to see the bigger sizes.  Just be warned: some of the files are huge.

There is an NC17 rated post coming up next.  And if I'm up to it, I'll have another Hasegawa post for Fetish Fridays - I saved all the bondage pictures for that post.  There are a few icons for you at the bottom of the post.  Help yourselves, just please remember to credit smutday! 

Enjoy!

 

Today I have a French artist by the name of Stéphane Dupré.   I was unable to find much of anything about him, except that he probably died or retired in the late '90s, since no one has seen from him since then. He was a pointillist, and I find that type art fascinating. I only know of one other pointillist that does gay art, Rex - and I've shown his art several times here. So I was thrilled to find Dupré's art in one of the Yahoo groups I frequent looking for gay artists. The things I do for you guys... *g*

So here's the R rated drawings, the NC17 rated set will be coming up as soon as I get this set up.  Oh, and since it's pointillism, you should definitely check out the versions on the scrapbook, it's really hard to see the incredible detail when scrapbook sizes them down like this.  But at least the people on dial-up can open the page this way, a lot of these files are huge!


Enjoy!

I've been away, in case you haven't noticed...oh, maybe I mentioned the Oz Big Bang story I've been working on. Well, it's ready for the betas now...I've finished the first draft (OMG - 81,000 words!), so I'll be around again. Lucky you.

So I have an artist for you today that I'm particularly fond of. SM Shifflett is not the kind of artist that paints perfect people. She's a realist and her art portrays the people she sees every day. She's also a tattoo artist with her own shop in San Francisco, and a lot of her models are the men and women who come into her shop. I especially like the portrait of the activist Wickie Stamps - her gray hair and the bar bells in her nipples make a nice contrast that just points up her complexity.

I hesitated on the R rated portion her collection, because despite the nudity, these paintings are more portraits than they are smut, but I find them very fascinating and very attractive, so I decided to include them. But the NC17 post coming up next leaves no doubt in your mind that there's smut in there, so don't be disappointed...you'll get your fill.

Don't worry, despite the fact that she's a lesbian, there are plenty of men and het sex in her art, so everyone will see something they like.

Enjoy!

I discovered Richard Savage during May, while looking for pics for Masturbation Month.  I think what I like best about him is the wide variety of subjects he chooses.  He's obviously more into women, lesbian and het, but when his fan base mentioned that they'd love to see gay men in his art, he started a new set of paintings with gay subject matter.  He also seems to prefer his Dom/sub kink with a male top, but he paints Femdom as well.  You can find vanilla as well as many varieties of kink and fetish in his work, so it's a little hard to categorize him.  And that suits me just fine.

Enjoy!

I just couldn't possibly let a theme like Athletes go by without dedicating at least a couple of posts to the wonders of Jock Straps, now could I?  You may have seen a few of these before, but what can I say?  I have my favorites - like that first one by Minoru...nice.  The NC17 rated version is coming up next!

Note: Due to the nature of the...beast, even the R rated post is likely to be a little...revealing. What can you do? They're jock straps, after all...they don't really leave a lot to the imagination, now do they? 


Oh yeah...and there are a few icons at the end, in case you're interested...


Enjoy!

Theme of the Month?  Okay, let's make that Theme of the Half-Month, how's that?  It's not like I haven't posted anything this month, but it wasn't really on any one particular theme, or anything...  But since I had all this art with athletes in it that I never got around to during Uniform month, I decided to put them to good use.  So here they are.  Professionals, amateurs, kids playing in the streets, even dancers...it's all the same to me.  It's all got to do with how they use their bodies.  Ummm....nice.  And hopefully smutty, too!

By the way...the reason I've been so un-mod-like this month is that I'm writing a big bang fic for Oz fandom.  I'm going great guns on it...it's just shy of 29,000 words, and it's about half done.  Whew!!!  But when it's done, it's going to be one hell of a smutty/kinky fic, so hopefully you guys will get to benefit from all my hard work.  So if anyone wants to dig in and make a post or two this month on your favorite sport or athlete (or on any subject for that matter), I'd love you forever.  :::shifty eyes:::   Or at least a couple of months...  

So yeah...here's some R Rated Athletes to whet your appetite.


Enjoy!

Well, at least to those of you who celebrate it. And a happy/Smutty Saturday to the rest of you. I had a good deal of trouble getting these posted today...my publishing client wouldn't work, and LJ's Scrapbook is all screwed up, but I refuse to let my many frustrations cloud my good mood, because after about a month of minor monsoon season-type weather, the sun is out and it's a day to celebrate. The timing couldn't be better.

For those of you who aren't Americans, I promise, I tried to make the pics as Smutty as possible, so you should be able to enjoy them, even if the holiday doesn't do anything for you.  And for the Americans in the bunch - so you know...I added a few thought provoking pictures, like Michael Breyette's Don't Ask, Don't Tell and In the Face of Darkness (which was painted in response to the fight for same sex marriages) in this post, or Kamion's Tied by Duty which you'll see in the NC17 post to follow, but that doesn't take away from my appreciation of our holiday or our country.  Just the fact that they could be posted without censorship is a celebration of the freedoms we already have, even as it reminds us of the ones we've yet to achieve. 

So Happy 4th, everyone!  Enjoy!

Note to all:

I'm an American, and was raised in the Christian tradition, so I usually know our holidays, but if anyone else ever has suggestions for other national or religious holidays to feature, let me know, and offer me some suggestions as to where to find stuff, and I'll be glad to feature your holidays, too.  I found a few Canadian and UK flags in my searches for today, so I have a start on those - so step up and tell me what you're interested in, okay?  Oh, and feel free to make your own posts, too, for that matter.  That always makes me happy.

Well, these two posts were ready to go Sunday evening, while it was still June 28th, but due to maintenance, Insane Journal was unavailable, so I'm posting them late.  So just pretend it's still Sunday, okay?  Thanks.

Today (June 28th) marks the 40th anniversary of the night that changed the world for millions of gay men and women - the night the police raided the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village, NYC, and the gays fought back.  I'm not saying there weren't already people out there fighting for the rights of gays, but the Christopher Street riots charged the atmosphere, and practically overnight, what had been a small "Homophile Movement" exploded to become the Gay Rights Movement - and the world has never been the same. 

At least mine hasn't. 

I have a really cool link to share, but I'm not going to dwell on Gay Rights here. It's not the place, I don't think. But I do intend to celebrate Gay Pride with a couple of posts. However, if you're interested in an excellent program on the Stonewall Riots and the effect they had on the world, from the point of views of the men and women who were there, check this out:

Stonewall Riots 40th Anniversary

As for my posts today, I'm sure some of you will have seen some of these before...I have my favorites, after all, but I've got some new art and photos for you, too.  I included one piece by Neil Bruce at the end of this post that doesn't really have any overt references to gay pride, but the tattoo the guy is wearing is the emblem of the Human Rights Campaign, who are steadfast supporters of GLBT Rights, and it seemed appropriate.  Besides, I felt this post needed a bear, what with the high percentage of twinks and all... 

The NC17 rated post will be coming right up - as soon as I get this one crossposted to all three journals - gasp! 

Enjoy!

It seems like I've been ignoring those of you who are not members this month, so I thought I'd put up some uniform pics that even those that can't, or don't want to view the NC17 rated art could enjoy.  As a matter of fact, there is nothing in any of these that's even rated PG13.  This is probably the cleanest post you'll ever see me make.  And after a extremely NC17 rated Insane Thursdays post and a rather intense Fetish Fridays post, we could probably all do with something a bit on the lighter side, right?

J.C. Leyendecker was an early 20th century illustrator famous for his covers for such illustrious magazines as The Saturday Evening Post and Collier's Magazine.  He was also well known for popularizing several ad campaigns - most especially the Arrow Collar Man, which was one of the longest running and most successful ad campaigns ever.  He was a contemporary of Maxfield Parrish, and friend and inspiration for a young Norman Rockwell, who admits he was influenced by Leyendecker's work.

Leyendecker was one of the most widely recognized commercial artists of his day, and his covers for the Post helped firm several iconic figures into the American consciousness, including the New Year's baby and the modern interpretation of Santa Claus.  In 1913, when Woodrow Wilson declared Mother's Day an official holiday, Leyendecker painted a Post cover commemorating the day, which some say actually began the tradition of giving flowers to celebrate the occasion.

And what does this all have to do with smutday, you may ask?  Well, he was a fairly openly gay man, in an era that shunned that, and today, many gays claim to see homoerotic tendencies in much of his art.  Unfortunately, I'm not showing some of the most obvious examples, because there are no uniforms in them, but that's okay.  It's easy to appreciate his art and his lovely, lovely men even without the paintings with more overtly gay images. 

I'm sure I'll make at least one more post of his art at some point - I don't have any of his Roaring Twenties art here, or any Arrow Shirt Men either, and his favorite model for those paintings was his lover of almost 50 years, Charles Beach.  I just love that - most marriages should last that long.  So yeah, you'll see more of him.  But for today, take a look at his uniforms - mostly Military and Sports related, but all of them fascinating.

As usual, the originals are larger.  In some instances, much, much larger, so click through to my scrapbook to see the full-sized editions.

Enjoy!

For today's Uniforms offering I have for you the art of Ben Kimura.  I don't have that much information about the artist, but according to the english translation of the site I linked to above, he died in 2003 at the age of 56.  He was obviously popular in Japan in the 80's, drawing illustrations, original art and comics.  He had one book published entitled Tan-Pan Body, and obviously made at least one cd of his art that was sold over the internet (sorry, I don't have links for these.)

What I have here is a selection of men and boys in uniforms, mostly in sports and the military.  Obviously he did draw some sexually explicit gay art, as I did find one piece of men in military uniform that has full frontal nudity (which I will show at a later date!)  But everything else I have found by him is, at the most, rated R.  

By the way...I'm having trouble finding much art or photos of women in uniform, so if you come across anything, feel free to share, or send me some links - I'd love to post some, but I've yet to come across enough of decent quality to make a post.  Until then, you'll just have to look at the pretty men...  I think you can deal with that, can't you?

Enjoy! 

Uniforms.  Not everyone wears them, but many people do.  Cops, doctors and nurses, every branch of the military, people in pretty much every sport from tennis to baseball to wrestling, airline pilots and attendants, race horse jockeys, the guy who takes your order at your favorite fast food restaurant - you see uniforms pretty much everywhere you go. 

For that matter, many people you don't think of as wearing uniforms, really are: business men and women wear suits, high school gym teachers wear sweat suits and whistles around their necks, construction workers wear hard hats and tool belts and tight t-shirts and even tighter jeans...okay, maybe that's just in Tom of Finland's imagination, but you get the idea. 

I was going to start out the month with one last masturbation post that also fits the theme of Uniforms, but then I realized all the pictures were NC17, so only the members could see the theme of the month post, and that just didn't seem right.  So I'll post those for Fetish Friday, instead. 

So you're getting R rated Tom of Finland in it's place.  I'm sure that those of you who know his work realize how hard it was to find this many men in uniform that weren't proudly revealing their extremely large cocks to anyone and everyone they could find.  Fortunately, Tom has a thing for uniforms, so I was able to find a good variety.  Of course, there are many more that are rated NC17, so I'll need to have at least one more post with his work in it before the month is over. 

Tom of Finland was not alone in his attraction to uniforms, and when I see a leather man with a soldier's hat, or pants with a stripe down the side and knee-high leather boots, I tend to consider those accessories as parts of a gay subculture's uniform.  So when you see leather men in this mix, you'll understand why. 

A few of the drawings you'll see have a Tom of Finland insignia at the bottom - prints of those drawings are for sale at the ToF site.  So if you're interested in supporting a Foundation which actively supports the growth of new erotic artists, invest in a print.  I'm sure you won't be sorry.

Enjoy!

Well, I managed to hunt down a couple of Masturbation pieces that aren't too explicit.  I didn't want those of you who aren't members and can't see the NC17 Masturbation posts to think we've totally forgotten you.  So here...have a couple of pieces of art.  Just for you.  So go ahead...try is.  You'll like it, promise.  And it's not addictive.  Really it's not!

Enjoy!
