Ok, it's official, I'm leaving NYC for a short hiatus. I'll still be in the area but for the most part I'll be locked away for the next 2 years changing diapers and making paintings. Good Stuff.
So here's the thing. I've spent a lot of time this year thinking about my work and I'm ready to start something completely fresh. I'll still be working on my Dirty Dirty Love Series, but it's evolving. That means I need models - Male and Female.
I'll be able to travel to you within reason (anywhere within a 2 hour drive from southern CT is within reason, international not so much). I will also be shooting on location in CT and at a new studio in NYC (on a limited basis). As most of you know, I work in watercolors which is a time consuming process, so I shoot photo reference of my models so I can later devote the hours necessary to creating the final painting. If at all possible, I'd love to work with at least one model that is available on a relatively regular basis as I plan on creating a body of work based around that one person. FYI, the new work, much like my older work, will include concepts of sexuality and domesticity so comfortability in your own skin and maturity are strongly encouraged.
And please, understand that I do not discriminate - if you have tattoos, piercing, a shaved head, a balding head, if you are over weight, if you are under weight, if you are young, old, short, tall, square, round, black, white, green with purple poke a dots, if you are straight, gay, lesbian, transexual, pan sexual, try-sexual, if you have never modeled before or if you do it professionally, I WANT TO WORK WITH YOU!!!
If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask. I'll be working on these new images for quite a while so please do not feel that you must be available right now. I plan on shooting new models through out the year, so if you live abroad and know you'll be in the NYC area seven months down the road, let me know so we can plan on working together.
All the best in 2009

Maybe if I ever make the trip over to the states (the one I've been dreaming of/semi planning for years) we could work together!
Good luck in your search though.
The problem is I'm settled in Italy and not planning to come tu NYC...
I'm really sorry about that ç__ç
