Foxy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Hope your meat is HOT and JUICY tomorrow! And for those vegetarians out there: hope you feast on BIG, MEATY NUTS!
Now that I've got that out of the way, I want to take a moment to remember those who came before us and made our lives (aka Americans) here today possible. No, I'm not talking about Mom or Dad, or even George Washington. I'm talking about the original North American foxes, the Native Americans!
Without getting into too much discussion about the many injustices inflicted on those living in this country, I hope everyone takes a moment to reflect and simply give thanks for what they have.

I am certainly thankful that I'm here (happy and healthy) and able to draw foxy pictures and share them with YOU! :)

In case you don't know, I'm a terrible cook so this is a particularly difficult Holiday for me. But lucky for me, I found some great looking Turkey to share with you. ENJOY!

Foxy Tricks and Treats

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Hope everyone is ready to watch a creepy movie, hang with friends, dress up, or going to a party this week-end. Well, regardless of what you've got planned hope you get your fill of trick-or-treating.

I recently found some interesting cover art for the classic "Frankenstein" by Mary Shelley and it just BEGGED for a foxy make-over! Tell me I'm wrong, but the engaging stare combined with a naked body strapped to a table under a bedsheet just screams something sexual... right?

Well, anyways here's MY inspired piece. I've added greetings from CAMPBLOOD. If you haven't checked out that site before... NOWS THE TIME. It's got tons of horror films reviewed and can certainly help you pick the right flick to get you in the mood this week-end. Stop on over and enjoy the treats that 'ol BUZZ from Campblood has ready for you.

Hope you enjoy the art, and feel free to email it to a special someone. ;)
Have a safe, happy, and foxy Halloween!

Foxy Friday

I'm b-a-a-a-a-a-a-ck!
It's Friday, and hope everyone is ready to enjoy the week-end! I know I am.
It's also been a while since I've posted anything, but that doesn't mean I haven't been busy. No sir! I've been hard at work and running around doing freelance jobs as well as trying to have a little fun.


Anyways, thought to post my favorite furry Fox ...or should I say "wolverine"? Speaking of which I can't wait for the Wolverine movie to come out (next year)? I can only hope there's a lot of him running around naked in the Weapon X laboratory!! If you don't know the origin story of Wolverine, and have the hots for this furry bad boy... you're in for a treat. The incredible Barry Windsor Smith did a fantastic job back in the day:

Just imagine a beefed up Hugh Jackman all naked and sweaty, rolling around all bound up in cables and wires. It's like some fantasy come to life... and they better have it in the movie!! There was a hint of this back in the previous X-Men films, but it was such a tease!! AAAAAARGH!

Speaking of hunky hairy actors, that reminds me: has Jake Gyllenhaal been hanging out with Hugh? If you've seen him in his new duds for the film PRINCE OF PERSIA... it's like they're competing for Mr.Leather or something? Jake's wig is terrible, but who's looking at the wig, right? :)

OK, now get lost and start you're week-end if you haven't already!

Foxy Pride

Sadly, I missed out on the infamous "FOLSOM" event here in NYC last weekend. It's a leather pride event where you can see folks acting out and feeling frisky. However, this weekend is the big gay pride parade here in NYC, and I'll try and get a gander at it (if I manage not to have a hangover). Anyways, got me thinking about a way to share my love of art and music more with my fellow foxes. So I decided to start a series of music compilations featuring some of my favorite music (and my art of course)! Each will showcase certain kinds of music I deem "foxy", and will named after a color (rainbow flag, anyone?).

May I present: "Foxy- Red". Feel the passionate, funky vibe of these tunes as you hear the bass slap and synthesizer tweak. I love listening to these songs, and especially love "mucho macho". It's truly amazing, and hope you enjoy it, too.














FOXY RED:
01 Macho- Mucho_Macho
02 Rod McKuen- Easy In
03 Asphalt Jungle- Freakin' Time Pt.1
04 Roundtree- Get on Up
05 Goody Goody - It Looks Like Love (Dim's Compiled Edit)

I would also like to take a moment to thank an incredible fellow blogger who have graciously posted this material and without whom I would have never had the pleasure of hearing these amazing tracks!! Please visit Pat Les Stache @ American Athlete as often as you can as there is no doubt there are many more foxy classics yet to come.

Pat Les Stache- AMERICAN ATHLETE

OH! And if you're in the Seattle, WA (USA) area on a Wednesday, please stop by and get your groove on! There is a weekly dance party there called "STUDIO" and it looks like a lot of fun!
STUDIO @ Havana (1010 E Pike St, Capitol Hill) every Wednesday Night. Check out their blog and see for yourself! :)

Happy Pride!

Foxy Fiction

I've been busy getting ready for an illustration trade show here in NYC in a couple weeks, so I haven't posted in a while. Although this show mainly caters to the more commercial market for the masses, I've tried combining some foxy flavor to the mix. So take a look at a new series I'm developing. I'm focusing on (foxy) male heroic characters from folklore and fiction. Here are the first two: Doc Savage and Hercules (ala Steve Reeves).
I have plans on showing some tone legs with Robin Hood. Others I'm considering are John Henry, Paul Bunyan, Aladdin, and Tarzan.
Do you have any suggestions or comments? Please let me know and post them here and/ or send me an email.

Foxy Music

If you haven't figured it out by now, I have a soft spot for funky disco garage classics. I can't quite figure out what it is exactly that does it for me, but I had to share some more of these fantastic tunes. Lucky for us all there are some resourceful DJ types out there that post this stuff on YouTube so you can hear it all for yourself. ENJOY!
1. KLEEER - Keep Your Body Workin'. Love everything about this song. Yes, even the "disco calls". It's a fun, sexy classic dance classic that should do the trick and get the blood pumping.

2. The SALSOUL ORCHESTRA - You're Just the Right Size. With song lyrics like this there's no mistaking your intentions when you play this jam. Whew! It's getting hot in heeeeere.

3. SLICK - Sexy Cream. Well, now that the blood is pumping and you've discovered everything is the right size the only thing left to do now is to give up some of that sexy cream. Yup. That's right. Enjoy, and then go have a cigarette.

Foxy Cooking

I caught clips of video on YouTube of a shirtless guy dancing in the kitchen and of course wanted more. Turns out this was part of a French (television) "how to" cooking series called KITCHENDALES. What a great idea! If you can't understand the French language, who cares?! Like anyone really watches this show for the cooking tips anyways.
And if you go to DAILY MOTION they have longer segments of the show to watch. :)
It's even listed on Amazon.com, but sadly only available as a Region 2 DVD. :(
Here is my favorite clip so far that I've found. ENJOY!
