Compelling art

Paul Cadmus Paintings:

 They allow people a way to gasp in public but, masturbate to their inner fantasies in their mind… 
 The images can be viewed, and the viewer can participate by reacting anyway chosen, but, how they really feel about it in their mind is still left private. These are so wonderfully playful, and the viewer participation that can take place is sublime but compelling. The imagery is Provocative yet, simultaneously disarming if not casually inviting… pass the stuffing and gravy please~

Very interesting to look at, especially the first one.

I’ve always loved his work. 

Long ago he was a much older friend of my much older friends. 

I desperately wanted to meet him, but it never happened. 

From what I understand he was a delightful man.
