Sumptuous
Allam was a former Miami neighbor. This was the second and last work we created together.
The title comes from both the softness of the pillows he rested on
and the fantasy of resting one's head on...you finish my thought...
Inspired by Henry but the resulting work looks like someone about a decade younger.
Chose this pose to be more universally acceptable.
Decided to create a multi session very detailed work of Greg.
During the pose, Greg fell asleep and had an "excited" dream.
When I noticed his erection, I quickly began rendering it. But as I was about half way through,
Greg's member moved from the depicted "10 O'Clock" position to a "2 O'Clock" position.
Frustrated by the movement of a vital element, I had to wake Greg and ask him to hold
his throbber with fingers out of view at the former position.
The background is an accurate portrayal of my former Miami Studio.
The addition of the blue jeans was suggested by one of my best long term friends. Are the results worth it?

Jim worked out at the same Oakland Park gym, where we were introduced.
This man was so woof, had to put my lust on the back burner
and just draw him. Everything accurate.
This tall man came to pose only this once and our session was cut short as he was called in to work.
At that point, I had rendered everything but his substantial chest hair.
After not being to reschedule more time with him, and not wanting to abandon a promising work,
I decided to work off a picture of another man's chest.
Another stunning gym mate...
Lucky to have him invest this time out of his busy schedule to achieve this work.
This work benefits from working with a model for many sessions
when familiarity, comfort and mutual friendship
helps an artist to find and employ the elements economically.
In other words, it was a very good day to be an artist.
