Last night…

   Posted by: John Williams

…..OMG!

We had a lot of people last year, but last night we went off the charts with well over 2,000 people coming through the show.  I hope everyone had a good time last night, the show will be up for a week if you want to go by and see the art again, but this time without the huge crowd of people walking in front of you.

I made some small cards to put by my work last night, they came out way to small, next time I will have postcard size cards ready. As we drove up to the studio (Koken Art Factory) about all I could say was ‘Holy Shit!’ due to the fact that the streets were packed with parked cars for at least a three block radius.

uRMoms is the new ‘bar’ they have in the basement, they are only open on Thursday’s and Saturday’s right now. They feature Live Band Karoke, pretty cool looking place as well, Amber and I are dying to shoot in the space.  They have a stage for the band along with lights, I am going to see if they will rent it out to us for band shoots. We could setup a live show shoot and not have to worry about crowds, along with have control of the lights for a change.

If you are stopping by my site from the show, I hope you enjoy what you see and better yet I hope some of you decide you would like to setup a shoot.

Dirty Show 10 in Detroit

   Posted by: John Williams

I got word that I will have work in the upcoming Dirty Show in Detroit – Dirty – it is their 10 year anniversary this year and I am honored to be part of the fun.

Here is a snipit from their website:

About Dirty

The mission of The Dirty Show is to promote, publish and propagate erotic art in all forms. This is done in the form of an erotic art exhibition which has become one of the largest in the world.

Since it’s inception at the turn of the century, the founders have been entertaining and enlightening the masses with a delightful event called, The Dirty Show. Held every Valentine’s Weekend, the show features a large number of artists, from first-timers to the famous at their dirtiest. While primarily focusing on area artists, The Dirty Show is open to artists from anywhere in the world, providing the work is good, erotic, they can get it here.

Porn Or Art?
This is the question most media poses. The answer is simple. It is 100%, genuine art. We have done extensive research on porn, logging in countless hours on the internet- we know porn, intimately. While some pieces, to the layman, may appear to be pornographic, it is as artistic as any shit you would see in a museum. There have been a few pieces which some feel are not “dirty”. This to is a misconception, most likely due to the lack of artistic education of the viewer.

It would be nice to make it to this show, but that I am 99% sure will not happen, besides I still am planning on making it into Naughti-Gras 2009 and want to be in town for that show.

The show will be Febuary 14th, 2009 and I want all new stuff for this show. If anyone would like to model for work done strictly for this years show, contact me.

Last years show drew 1500 visitors and it was the first show, this years event should be bigger. Visit the site at stlnaughtigras .com and see some of last years work. and be sure to watch the video by Lo Fi Saint Louis – http://lofistl.com/2008/09/15/229-naughti-gras-nsfw/ (not work safe)

I hope to hear from anyone interested within the next thirty days, to give us time to get the finished product ready for the show. I can work with both men and women, couples or individuals and visit my website insomniacstudios.net if you have not seen my work before.

Keep in mind that sensuality, eroticism, even fetish can be visualized without nudity. All sessions are done free of charge, any make-up artists that would like to be part of the pieces may also contact me.
