This girl, Katharine Cane, got into a very small acrylic box. There was a sort of drinking game held on the box and another girl sat on top of it and had liquor poured on her body. What impressed me most was how exceedingly happy Katharine seemed to be trapped naked in a tiny clear plastic box. It's not really Kinbaku at all, but it was happening so I drew it.

This is Katharine Cane again -  the same girl that was in the plastic box earlier in the evening.  She had ivory skin and jet black hair.  Her eyes were very darkly made up.  In this scene a large vibrator has been tied to her crotch in an effort to force her to orgasm, however she seemed completely unphased by the stimulation.  Around her thighs she is wearing electric dog collars, but the shocks to her inner thighs seemed not to bother her in the slightest.

Here is a drawing of "Black Xmas" host Mike West binding a young lady.  Actually I think he may have been asphyxiating her, but I was late on the scene and captured this sketch rapidly without having a clear sense of what was really taking place.

This young man is in the process of having the ropes removed.  Earlier he was in full suspension wearing red pajamas, and being beaten on the ass with a wooden spoon for stealing cookies.

I sketched these at a bondage performance party called “Black Xmas”, and they are the first drawings in a new series entitled, “Rope Impressions,”  that is comprised of life drawings of scenes of Japanese Style Rope Bondage (known as “Kinbaku” or “Shibari” in Japanese).  The title alludes not only to the distinct rope marks that are left on the skin of the bound body, but also to the Impressionist movement.  This is my virgin foray into Impressionism.  Drawings such as these are not so much accurate renderings of art models as they are “impressions” of life, albeit a strange slice of life.  The models for these drawings, though bound, were in constant movement, and I captured my impressions with great speed, and later refined them at my leisure.  I feel that subject matter such as this returns to the original subversive spirit of Impressionism, before it somehow became the great sentimental hurrah of banal and bourgeois taste.  Moreover it hearkens back to  “Japonisme”, which was a strong current in Impressionism and other Fin de Siecle art movements.  Importantly, it is an erotic indulgence in the beauty of bound women.

More drawings in this series will be forthcoming soon . . .
