Mitchell's S+M Clinic Series at mitchmen - Probed on the Couch

The S+M Clinic has reached episode 34 today and is turning into a bit of an epic! The characters in this picture came out quite pleasingly for me capturing a nice element of masculinity in their relaxed poses. I've screened off the interesting bit as I try and keep this blog fairly mild, the full picture is at mitchmen of course.

Cactus Kid Dragged to The Giant Cactus- First Anniversary of mitchmen

Today I am celebrating the first anniversary of my mitchmen group at Yahoo!

The picture below is part of a little retrospective series in recognition of this event.

This picture, from the Cactus Kid series first published in January 2008,
sums up an awful lot of what mitchmen (and Mitchell the Artist) is all about.

Erotic power struggles between men, ropes and punishments.

It makes a neat postscript to our recent series featuring cowboys in underwear.

Mitchell's S+M Clinic Series - Strip Examination

Part 3 of this medically inspired series is now under way at Mitchell's mitchmen group on Yahoo! (see sidebar for link). The picture above is a detail of the first image for Department 'P'. The men find new torments and humiliations are on the way but still manage to display their assets for our entertainment.

Mitchell's Underwear Cowboys

(I've included a link in the title but their site is currently being revamped)

Nice backside of course. The underwear pattern actually works and embellishes this particular view.

This picture is full of atmosphere to the mitchmen eye - not least as a result of the provocative title and the rope. The cowboys round the truck are looking at the new arrival waiting expectantly, but one man is holding back, it seems, and hangs his head as though distancing himself from the breakin' in that is about to take place.

Ranch Life can be tough

Here's an interesting ranching image for mitchmen fans of bondage.

These cowboys have stripped and tied up one of the ranch hands.

This image complements my recent posting of the Ginch Gonch boys who are sent (in their jazzy underwear, of course) to work on a ranch and suffer the neccessary discipline. 

(You can now see Mitchell's picture of the GG boys in the 'Cowboy Folio').

It looks as though this unfortunate man was caught drinking. 

Or maybe it's the boxer shorts which have caused offence. 

Sometimes a cowboy just needs to give his rope an outing.

I have to say those cowboys are in for a shock if they think it's OK to wear flip flops on the mitchmen ranch. If the charge hand catches them dressed like that, they are likely to feel the full weight of his disapproval!

Underwear Cowboys 2

That's better! The defaulters have been sent back to the bunkhouse to change into something more suitable. Now we can get on with it!

I used this theme of unsuitable clothing for a picture on my mitchmen yahoo group recently.
The luckless boys have to report for punishment in the barn where a mean foreman awaits.

Underwear Cowboys 1

Another underwear campaign that caught Mitchell's eye a little while ago - the Ginch Gonch Cowboys. These buddies are all lined up in a row outside the Ranch House, stripped down to their underwear. Hands clasped (or tied?) behind their backs, it's as though they are about to be punished in some way. Making these ruggedly male, cowboys stand, undressed, in full public view would be humiliating enough for them. Being made to wear the same, eye catching and frankly not very manly underwear - as though it were a uniform - is even worse. The design of the slips worn by numbers 2, 3 and 5 are skimpy and sexy. The decoration and seams emphasise their equipment - turning them into sex objects for the pleasure of the unseen gangmaster. What a shame the others aren't dressed the same! Their shorts might be quite attractive were it not for the decoration which makes them seem quite frumpy. Perhaps that's the reason for the punishment detail.......?
