    When I see that you have posted one of your pieces of art I simply must click and drink it in.

  • Ahh..censorship

    I have been contacted by one of our resident censors here and asked to attach an 'Adult' tag to this contest, so that children will not be subjected to the inherent corruption of viewing a drawing of a nude woman.
    No doubt she will now go to a mod with her complaint and the Mod's will in due course order the tag to be placed.

    I have reasons to not want this contest in the adult category.

    I should have known better.

    • Ahhh yes, it is much better that they view blood splattered screens of video game killing sprees than cast their eyes upon the feminine beauty you have captured here. It is a shame the complaintants are so insecure in their own humanity they must hide themselves from and protectively shield the "children" from the natural beauty in life.

      Oh goodness me. As if those children have not seen their mothers have a bath, or watched her get dressed in the mornings whilst discussing school and boyfriends. Or was it just me who lived in a mostly nudest house.... hmmm...

      shame about this.

    Ah. I remember her. I might have written something for this that started like this:





    Too much Dylan
    I'm starting to believe your wife
    really was a topless dancer
    as innocent as Mary.

    And I think I love her more
    than you ever did



    but I've been so damn busy
    I didn't get to write it.



    Hope you are well D. xo
