Etienne Erotica : Book 2

Summary: Review
Review: Commentary from Victor Terry of Checkmatemag.com: Non-fiction. Magazine-size. The Tom of Finland Company's second collection of BD SM drawings and paintings by artist Etienne (aka Stephen). Is there a CM reader who doesn't know of Etienne (flourished 60s/80s, died 1991)? Etienne has long been one of my favorite BD SM artists and this collection does not disappoint. Several of the drawings are new to me, and it is good to meet these. The book covers a wide span of the artist's career, from the early comic strip "Patrol Car No. 682" to the later famous series illustrating six words: "Shoe" is perhaps my favorite of the six with the private licking the sole of his sergeant's shoe which is dangling from the head of the sergeant's erect dick, though "Rope" and "Piss" (not to be confused with the even hotter but very different "Pisser") are not far behind. There is much here to appeal to CM's readers: DS, SM, bondage, ff, military, prison. If you do not know Etienne's work, you should, and this is a good intro. Etienne's fans will not need me to tell them: get this. Hot!

Summary: Review
Review: This is the second in what may become a series of 3 or 4 books collecting together some of the art of Etienne. This volume looks at his artistic side in the world of dance in the introduction but returns to the beautiful drawings and paintings he created during his lifetime. There are two stories, 8 paintings and 40 black and white pieces. Odds are if you look at kinky gay male art online, you've seen Etienne's work. Now you can buy it and support the perservation of SM culture too.
