Seductive Art by AI-GaySole

a

 Convict Kane by AI-GaySole (Video)

This guy looks like a tough cookie, but the prison guards are tackling his behaviour. They are keeping him tightly restrained with rope even when he's in his cell. He also has to wear a body harness under his prison uniform and keep it on, even during recreation breaks, as a reminder of what they will do if he misbehaves. 

I love the exaggerated pecs and nipples busting out of his overalls, and the straining zip, which looks as if it might give way at any moment.

Convict Kane 2 by AI-GaySole

Kane was very troublesome when he arrived but a few days in insolation and special suspension had a sobering effect. The periodic inspections made by Officers made him realise that no-one was untouchable in this institution. 
 
Convict Kane 3 by AI-GaySole

Kane never quite lost his cockiness, but the warders found that quite endearing. It tended to dissolve dramatically when they put him back in harness for regular 'maintenance' procedures.
 
 
 
Jake Harlan by AI-GaySole (video)
 
Jake has a pretty intimidating look too, who says real men don't wear pouches? But his dinky, denim, fashionista, cropped top gives the game away. He's really just a shameless exhibitionist, condemned to roam the subway network forever, in search of redemption (or something like that). 
 
Jake Harlan 29 by AI-GaySole

Judging by press reports you'd think subway trains are infested with touchy-feely men eager to interfere with their fellow travellers, but not a confident, hunky man, apparently. 
Jake's discovered that passengers have an amazing capacity to ignore his bizarre behaviour. I suppose they think that even a furtive glance might lead to an embarrassing, stripper-gram style scene. 
 
They may all look the other way, but Jake still gets a kick out of performing just for himself. He keeps going with a supply of coffee and sandwiches in his backpack, which he always keeps on his back, even when it's crowded, just to annoy the other passengers.
 
I think he's hoping that he might get himself arrested by a dodgy cop and locked up for causing a nuisance, like Kane.
 
 
Professor Kane 10 by AI-GaySole

I can't say I'm turned on by female attire as such, despite a comprehensive attempt by one optimistic individual to convert me in my younger years. I do find this get-up weirdly sexy though. 
I don't know if Professor Kane is related to Convict Kane (above) but they obviously take different courses in life! Of course, the Professor's name alone is enough to set wild thoughts running. The Head Teacher must be sorely tempted to impose some discipline. Can't have pecs being flashed in front of the students, can we?
 
 
Professor Kane 2 by AI-GaySole

The Professor doesn't wear much under his skirt, sometimes nothing at all, but you'll have to visit the artist's website to see them, there are a couple of seductive videoette performances there as well. 
 
I've listed some of his other characters below. You can see more images and sexy videos of them all at the artist's website (link at the foot of the post)
 
Brock 4 by AI-GaySole

Brock is another interesting character who works in a mini-mart, filling the shelves. He doesn't wear lingerie but good old, manly jeans. He fills 'em pretty well too, so much so that they have a tendency to split open in embarrassing places. Some customers complain it distracts them from their shopping, others think it turns the milk. I think I know what they're getting at.
 
 
 
Adam 18 by AI-GaySole

Adam's another well-endowed character, a bit of an AI cliché really. He sweats an awful lot, so you'll often see him stripping off on his way home from work.
 
Mr Rivera 20 by AI-GaySole

Some people say Adam is unduly influenced by his boss, Mr Rivera, and that's why he sweats so much. I'd say it's the other way round. Mr Rivera likes it the other way round.
 

Moretti 3 by AI-GaySole

Moretti is happy to do it either way. He's a hooker who puts his goods in the shop window. Well, in alleyways usually. Moretti is lucky enough to have beguilingly masculine looks and a large backside which he showcases with bold, but stylish clothing. Following Moretti back to his 'workplace' after hiring him has been known to cause his clients to come prematurely. It's easy money if you know how to do it!
 
 
Ken 17 by AI-GaySole

Ken's one of a number of sportsmen at AI-GaySole who delight in stripping off to entertain the crowds at match days. His teammates usually keep their distance during the hold-ups which don't last too long usually because the ground staff don't like the grass being disturbed too much - or fed with unapproved fertiliser.
 
 
Superman 6 by AI-GaySole

Superman finds it hard and difficult to keep a lid on his inner turmoil. When he sees a huge tower, he just can't help himself.

AI seems to have an infinite ability to produce variations on any image and this has led to a glut of creators who don't know when to stop and can't make choices. This artist isn't one of them. He has created a very selective offering of interesting and oddball AI characters. They have muscles and assorted good looks (naturally) and he puts them though their paces for our stimulation and entertainment. His memes are pleasingly and imaginatively handled.

Art Bob 1

Art Bob was a popular gay artist in the 60s with an unmistakeable, playful style. He depicted young men enjoying life and getting into 'interesting' situations. I've never reviewed his work here before but have previously posted sample images, also one more recently at the mitchmen account at BSkySocial.  
 

Art Bob - A Little Pull From A Buddy
 
Many of Art-Bob's images will be well known to my readers, so I'm starting this article with one of his less familiar ones. It shows a guy helping his dormitory buddy into a tight-fitting suit -  a diving or flying suit perhaps or, given the imagery on the walls, some sort of spacesuit. 
 
It's not exactly clear what he's doing to help, except that he's using a thread. The suit area below his foot shows cross-stitching and yet the suit seems to have a zip. Sewing it all up seems decidedly kinky. 
 
Even more surprising (for the 50s) is that his foot is placed firmly on his buddies' groin. You don't have to be familiar with foot fetish to perceive the erotic nature of this gesture, the recipient is clearly 'getting it', as it were! For the avoidance of doubt, rockets thrust skywards behind them 
 
The would-be astronaut is a typical example of the artist's usual fare of young and slightly gauche subjects, but his buddy is something else. Stubbled chin plus a hairy and muscular physique, complemented by a rare sight of Y-Front style, white underwear. Hunks like this pop up refreshingly in other pictures by Art Bob. 
 
The title is an example of Art Bob's humorous innuendo. It seems charmingly coy to us but was necessarily so in 1959 when this was published. Most of the images presented here were drawn in the 50s, an era of repression on both sides of the Atlantic. 
 
 
Art Bob - A Stitch In Time

This picture also has a sewing theme. Another hunky buddy helps to fix his (nervous) chum's jeans. The pithy title suggests it's a repair, but these look well past being fixed 'in time'. In the 50s, fashionable young men started to have their jeans altered to fit more tightly round the bum. The most professional technique involved unpicking the centre seam of the pants, like this, cutting away a 'dart', and then sewing it back up. 
 
Needless to say, few lads were accomplished sewers, but if they were lucky their mums or girlfriends would do it for them. Otherwise, they had to call on a 'best mate', whose expertise might be just as lacking as their own. Doing the alteration with the jeans still in place is a typically male solution to the problem of getting it as tight as possible. But it's not without risk, as the stick-on plaster shows.
 
Quite why the helpful friend is nearly naked for this task is a mystery, but who's complaining? His muscular body is clearly shaved below waist level. The 50s furnishings in the background are a delightful detail, not least because the artist's style exactly complements it. No modern home could be without a cheese plant back then. 
 
 
Ronald Wright - A Stitch In Time?

Art-Bob's 'stitch' was very well-received and was reproduced in a number of contemporary beefcake magazines. English artist Ronald Wright was so impressed with the idea that he made his own version, copying the original composition pretty much exactly, but dressing the characters differently and relocating it (bizarrely) to a sports locker room. It's not a patch on the original, but the deliberate reversal of the characterisations is quite interesting.
 
 
Art Bob - Just The Ticket

Buddy collaboration features in this image too. Two lads in a beach buggy are trying to talk a cop out of giving them a ticket. While the cop is distracted, another member of the party reaches out of the boot (US, trunk) to let down his tyres. You don't notice it at first because of the absurd perspective and distance. It's quite an artistic hand, feminine potentially. The passenger feigns innocence on both counts.
 
The characterisation of the cop is decidedly odd. Wearing a bow tie, tight shirt and sun shades that look as though they belong to a fashion model, he's not exactly the epitome of authority.  
 
Beyond the cartoon joke, the check shorts of the passenger are quite sexy and the flash on the driver's trunks hints at, yet disguises, suggestive shaping. In the distorted, visual vocabulary of the image the driver's hand appears to be nudging the cop's groin, possibly grasping something - and the cop seems to have noticed. The hidden eroticism of the time (see label at foot of post for more).
 
 
Art Bob - The Rescue 1
 
Still at the Seaside, a young man strips off on a jetty to rescue a drowning man. He's not wearing any underwear which only underlines his heroism, putting himself in double jeopardy!
 
The artist has gone over the top with wide-eyed boyishness which doesn't gel at all with the mature, hairy muscularity of the character's physique. However, there's a nice sense of urgency in his improbably confused undressing and off-balance pose. The grasping hand projecting from the water is masterly. 
 
 
Art Bob - The Rescue 2

In the sequel, we see a handsome, young man being dragged from the water by his rescuer, whose concerned face now shows rather more maturity. His discarded clothes can be seen on the jetty in both pictures, the sketchy style seeming to morph them into fishing nets! 
 
The water ripples are delightfully stylish. The lower legs visible beneath them don't reflect reality, in contrast to the hand in the previous picture. That might simply reflect hasty sketching, but there's a modernist argument for showing something that's there, even if you can't see it. You can compare Art-Bob's depiction of dripping water with Tom of Finland's below.
 
Art Bob produced a number of diptychs like this, but these images are a far cry from his usual frivolity and whimsy.
 
 
Tom of Finland - Sailor Rescued From Drowning 1
 
Tom Of Finland's 1963 mini story about a drowning sailor rescued by a biker may have been inspired by this couplet. It's equally brief.
 
Tom of Finland - Sailor Rescued From Drowning 2
 
Interestingly, Tom's and Art-Bob's images interleave rather well to produce a more complete storyline, despite the disparity in technique and dress. Both seem to have decided it would be prudent not to attempt to show the moment where the two men come together in the water.
 
There may be more images in Tom's story, he usually did sets of six around this time, but if he did, I don't have them. 
 
 
Art Bob - Down The Road A-Piece
 
The final picture shows two sailors who also need rescuing. They seem to be stranded in the desert with their kitbags and an empty fuel can. A cowboy is gleefully directing them to the nearest gas station - which is clearly miles away! Little wonder they both look so downcast and dismayed. 
 
The cowboy seems to have his horse with him, the reins are in his hand, but he doesn't seem to be offering to help, perhaps he wants to enjoy their predicament for a while, as do we. 
 
Perhaps his offer of help comes with conditions and he's pointing out the unpalatable alternative. He's dressed pretty provocatively for that species and there's a telltale handkerchief in his back pocket which they haven't seen yet.  
 
I love the depiction of the sailors in this picture - both the butch seated one and the boyish doll-like one on the left. This artist shows his understanding of the sexiness of tight sailor's outfits and mangled caps. His depiction of them can't be faulted. Which is why I posted it previously in the In Praise of Sailors series.

Sexy Wrestling Moves 1 - The Spladle


 I probably don't need to explain why this is one of my favourite wrestling moves
Sexy, helpless, embarrassing spring to mind.
Also, a good ad for leotards in this case.
 

It's not confined to the strictly controlled, college, amateur code
This is from an MMA fight between James Clark & Colton Kielbasa
That tells you how difficult it is to escape from and how painful the splits. 
 
 
 
The General idea is to trap the opponent's arms and legs from opposite sides.
The body behind him further inhibits his ability to wriggle free.
 

Surprisingly, the attack can be initiated from a standing position.
 

But once you've got him, you can roll him.
Thus, the embarrassment begins. 
 

And rapidly transitions into humiliation. 
 

Then the fun can really begin. 
 

You don't have to be young - or properly dressed,
 to suffer the indignity of being 'rolled'.
 
 

Indignity or surrender is the name of the game 
Mendez nails Hardy in 2024 
 

The entrapment of the highly rated Hardy and his inability to escape 
was a minor internet sensation at the time.
As if losing like this in front of the arena crowd wasn't bad enough.
 
 
I don't suppose this MMA fighter felt great about being caught like this, either. 
At least the loose, black shorts spared him some blushes. 
 

Even so, the view from the ringside wasn't too flattering for him!
Luckily, his opponent hadn't got the leverage to force a submission. 
 
 

Lighter guys can be rolled into a position where their shoulders are pinned for a fall.
This way up can't feel good, particularly with the ref hovering so close by.
At least he's deflecting some of the prurient, butt interest onto himself.
 
 
Anyone would feel nervous in this position!
 
 
 
And it's not just the ref who's watching! 
 
 
This seems a bit like rubbing it in!  
 

 

But there's a brighter side for some....
Come and get me baby.
