Taking a sauna while smoking a joint. Must be in Amsterdam.




This was a flyer I did for my show at “A Different Light”, a LGBT bookstore in Silverlake, California. The copy pretty much says it all. I was employed at the time as a storyboard artist at Warner Animation, at the Batman Animated TV series. I handed this flyer, and others in a series, out at work. I was disappointed that only 3 people from work showed up to the opening. I later was told that I had a reputation at WB as being a gay activist. I was non-plussed. I had been involved with Act-up LA for 2 or 3 years at this point; if they wanted to meet gay activists they should go to some of those meetings. I was just a fair-weather activist; the work always came first, activism a distant second.

This is the second drawing of the fantasy about al fresco sex with a construction worker.

Al fresco sex with a construction worker. My drawings prior to October 1989 tending to be illustrations from various fantasies I nurtured in my head. However, in October 1989 I was struck by I car while jaywalking across Hyperion Blvd in Silverlake California, was in a coma for several days. When I came to, I found my erotic drawings no longer illustrated fantasies, they were just drawings of naked men. I lost interest in doing that kind of work for a few years afterwards.

Part of a series of erotic sauna drawing I did in the late ’80’s. Probably intended for inclusion in “Secret Love”.

This drawing, in Prismacolor, was probably intended for inclusion in “Secret Love”.
