    No more bondage art

    What's up with this stuff?

    After seeing the people that are adding some of my art to their favorites, I can notice a certain trend in what people like. While personally I've never had a problem with light bondage work, seeing my work put in the favorites of patrons that only seem to enjoy women in distrees, gagged and treated badly, I am removing all bondage pieces from my gallery.
    I don't endorse the treatment of women in this way nor will I be accepting commission or suggestions for art done in this genre.
    I am not one to censor art or endorse the banning of images cause they are offensives. But I don't want my work being labeled as such.

    Bondage is a fetish. As long as it's done Safe, Sane and Consensual there is nothing wrong with it.

    If I make pictures like these [link] and these [link] don't you think that it's at least 50% self spot? :)

    I'm not demoralizing the artists that do Bondage art. I think people should enjoy whatever floats their boat. I just feel that its not a genre that I want to get into or work in anymore.

    I kinda know how you feel. Over at renderotica a while back there was a small debate about extreme artwork (showing torture and death), and it made me think about my own "art"/commissions.

    I am a fan of 'Tentacle Hentai', and often such work involves helpless women being attacked by ' naughty tentacles'.

    After that, my thoughts on tentacle hentai changed, and for awhile I started only doing 'nice' images (like the 'mecha pilots' in my gallery).

    Now I admit to myself I still like tentacle hentai, but from now on when I do such images I either make sure that the woman in question is not helpless (has a mean expression on her face and is fighting off the attack), or eventually do a 'rescue/escape' image (if only to salve my own concience :) ).

    It saddens me to hear that. I do indeed enjoy looking at tied Women which is why i had favored your two bound elves. I do not wish to bring any sort of problem to anyone. For the time being, I'll probably only keep a watch on you as i still like your art.

    Good Luck.
