"Drawn Together" SOHO art exhibition

2010-01-28T12:35:00.004-05:00

The New Year has been good to me thus far because I'm included in a SOHO art gallery show here in NYC! The Leslie Lohman gallery (26 Wooster Street, Manhattan) is having a show entitled "Drawn Together" this February. The show will include non-digital media depicting images of homosexual friendship, love, and lust.

Two of my pages from my erotic comic, "Second Chances" will be framed and the gallery has agreed to sell copies of my self-published mini comic. The comic is pre-packed with a set of four Foxy Andy post cards and sells for $10. If you're in Manhattan, stop by the gallery and pick up a copy! Note that my original comic pages will be available for sale, too! Don't forget that copies of my mini-comic are also available online via my ETSY shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/foxyandy

Also included in the show are several small works that will be a part of a "Big Wall of Little Drawings" which features artwork ranging in size from 8 x 10 inches to about 5 x 6 inches.

Lastly, I will have several large pieces on paper available in a portfolio. Here will be some life model drawings as well as a few hand colored ink drawings.

Check back soon as I will post all the details about the exhibit ASAP, or check with the gallery website: http://www.leslielohman.org/index.html

World Aids Day

2009-12-01T14:42:00.003-05:00

Just in case you didn't know: today is World Aids Day. So if you can do a little something to help the fight, please do! No effort is too big or too small.

I'm helping out in my own little way by being in a group show called, "Men Loving Men" at my local LGBT Community Center to benefit the center's HIV/AIDS Youth Prevention Program. I've got three new pieces in the show centered on the theme "Super Foxy Couples". Hopefully, I'll make some sales and help the cause AND my wallet! Here is a peek at one of my featured pieces titled "Zzzip!" ...are they Super-Heroes, or just guys who like uniforms? You can decide for yourself. Leave a comment if you like, and let me know!

If you're looking for something to do tonight and are in the area, stop by! In addition to supporting the community, there will be a re-creation of an artist’s studio and steal a peek at yet another masterpiece: a scantily-clad, drop-dead gorgeous model as he’s painted by an adoring artist. Admission includes:

-A refreshing specialty holiday cocktail with our artists and the alluring models that inspire them.
-A signed, limited edition “forbidden” collectable art piece.
-3 complimentary raffle tickets for 3 original art prizes.

For more about the show, and to purchase tickets to the event visit http://gaycenter.org/node/4624

Happy Halloween folks! Hope everyone is getting ready for the big night.
To help get ready for the night, I've made a nifty little drawing. I call him, "Vampirfella" and he's the first in a series of sexy monsters I'll be working on. I plan on including other such sexy beasts such as werebears, zombie jocks, sexy spectres and the like. Got any favorites you'd like to see? well post a reply or send me an email and maybe your request will be next?!

Have a safe and happy Halloween everyone!

"Writing erotic comics? What’s so hard about writing a story about sex? Dale Lazarov, writer of gay erotic comics like “Sticky,” “Manly,” and the forthcoming “Nightlife,” talks about the challenges of writing erotic comics, and of dialog-free comics."

Well, the art show last night went well. It was great to meet my fellow artists and fans, and I even sold some art! A huge, big "Foxy Hug" to all those of you who made a purchase. Joe was a big hit, too and I'm sure has made a lot of new friends. ;)

Anyways, wanted to direct your attention to a new section in the Foxy Andy store. It's called "Camp Blood". Why? Well, not only am I a big horror film fan, but I love my "Buzz", the president and chief of the horror-for-homos-capital: CampBlood.org!

Foxy Zaso

2009-08-05T16:20:00.005-04:00

Some of you people may be familiar with actor, film maker and "celebrated horror himbo" Joe Zaso, but in case you're not... well, here's your chance! Yours truly has teamed up with Joe to create a stunning new portrait. Joe's got one heck of a bod and devilish good looks to boot, so it wasn't too difficult to come up with this winner.

This "foxy" portrait is somewhat inspired by Joe's new movie "Barricade" available on Amazon (along with many others). The 8x10 will be professionally printed, autographed, and made available to fans in the next few weeks, so check back here soon for details. In the meantime, why not check out Joe's company, Cinema Image Productions, and see all the great movies that are available! Of course, also feel free to gawk and drool over this talented guy by visiting his MySpace page http://www.myspace.com/joezaso. Did I forget to mention there are also fun facts and photos of Joe featured on CampBlood.org http://www.campblood.org/Features/HimboJoe.htm ...and yes, Joe does have a Facebook profile, too! Soo many ways to get in touch and stay in touch now-a-days! ;)

And some of you may not know that Joe has a bit of the devil inside him! Yes, it's true!! Before Hellboy, there was JOE ZASO (as the New Jersey Devil)!

So what are you waiting for? Go and get some Zaso movies, and then come back soon to find out when these prints will be available! :)

Foxy Pride

2009-06-25T12:45:00.004-04:00

Happy Pride to all my fellow LGBT foxy fans! This week-end is pride here in NYC area, and it also is the 40th anniversary of Stonewall. We've come a long way in the fight for human rights, but there is still a long way to go. sigh...

On a slightly different note, it's also an important time for me because it's also the debut of my "ashcan" edition of my comic "Second Chances"! You might have caught me talking about this earlier in a previous post, but let me refresh your memory. This erotic, gay tale of romance was written by the fab Dale Lazarov and is part of a collection of three stories we're working on called "CHUMS".

Anyways, NYC Comic retailers, Jim Hanley's Universe, is hosting a Pride event this coming Saturday at their midtown location and yours truly will be there along with many others! There will even be panels about gays in comics, and a "how to self publish" so why not stop by and check it out? You can support the community and learn a little something at the same time. ...oh, and maybe even find a date (if you're looking)!

For the complete details about the event this Saturday (June 27th), click here: http://jhuniverse.blogspot.com/2009/06/pride-day-at-jim-hanleys-universe-june.html

If you can't make it to the event, I will be selling copies of "Second Chances" on my ETSY shop next week. So stay tuned!!

Foxy Uncensored

2009-06-07T13:28:00.003-04:00

So I'm about to post something here that I don't normally do. I'm going to post something a bit more outrageous... or better yet "uncensored". It's also very appropriate since I'm featured in a new book, "Stripped Uncensored", from ertotic publisher, Gmunder! The book features a variety of erotic artists from around the world and should be a great reference guide for both old and new talent.

I submitted many pieces for this book, but Gmunder picked some of my more provocative work. This piece (top) was done as a promo for a great website called CAMPBLOOD. It's a horror fan site from a LGBT perspective, and has been around for a while now. There's tons of film reviews and trivia among other things. Stop over and check it out: It's good, campy fun!

Another piece in the book is something right out of my perverted mind. I'm not sure how or why that little goblin-critter hiding in the hollow tree has a nose like that, but it makes me laugh. To be honest, these guys are a part of a series that I'm going to be working on under the title, "A Midsummer Night's Cream". I know it's a terrible title, but if the shoe fits...

Well, if you've got a better title, ideas, or comments you'd like to share just post a comment or email me. Would love to hear what you think!

Foxy Photo

2009-06-05T12:17:00.002-04:00

If you're free in NYC this Monday, June 8th (7-9pm) stop by and check out the foxy photos and N2N underwear models at POSH (405 W 51st). Stop by for a free glass of champagne and a nibble, while perusing photographs of scantily clad sexy men. I'll be there digging for the dish about the shoot with photographer, Mark Bradley Miller.

If you can't make it to the opening, or want to check out the work check out Mark's website. You can also order prints there, too!!

Foxy Merch

2009-05-26T15:21:00.006-04:00

Just in case you wondered what happened to my Foxy café press shop... it's closed (at least for a while until people start requesting such things). Regardless, I think it's better to offer fans the chance to purchase original artwork and so I have opened a FOXY ETSY shop! In case you don't already know, Etsy is a great place to sell hand made goods and find unique gifts of all kinds. So why not check it out, and let me know if you like what you see? Any special requests? I'd love to hear them.

and I'm willing to do COMMISSIONS! Maybe you'd like a sketch of you and your boyfriend, or your favorite super hero, actor, etc. Any takers?? Email me for details!

Foxy Art

2009-04-09T09:36:00.003-04:00

I came across a YOUTUBE vlog that someone known as "Mike Diamond" made of the Painted Boy show and exhibit. It's actually kinda fun, and thought that some of you might also think so. Beware that there is artwork depicting adult gay sexuality, so if you're not legally an adult... YOU CAN'T WATCH THIS! (Or you'll have to go and get your parent or legal guardian to watch it with you.)

Foxy Merch

2009-04-08T16:55:00.003-04:00

Well, I didn't sell much at the Loverman show this past week-end, but that won't keep me from letting my fans get a chance! I'm in the process of getting my original art up for sale. They're really quite something up close (if I may say so myslef). So look here soon for more details soon!

In the meantime, I've added some new foxy merch to my Café Press shop, so stop over and check it out. I think the "Tasty" large sized coffee mug is quite fetching among other things. ;)

If you enjoy foxes of all varieties, check out the "Prism Boys" and see what's cooking (clicking on the image will take you directly to items in this section):

If you tend to follow the seasons, or feel festive year around check out the "Happy Holidays" section (clicking on the image will take you directly to items in this section):

Note if you've seen any of my art and would be interested in actually buying it, or having merch items with certain images... PLEASE LET ME KNOW! Send me an email or leave a comment here, and I'll do my best to make everyone happy.

Foxy Art

2009-04-01T16:07:00.004-04:00

Don't forget that this week-end is "The Painted Boy" erotic art fair! If you're into gay erotic art or checking out a sexy gay crowd... then you don't want to miss this event!! Be sure to print out the coupon you see here, or go to the Painted Boy website and download your own to print and share.

Here (above image) is a special "Friends & Family" coupon that will get you in the the Gala event on Friday (raflles, prizes, limited edition art, and MORE) as well as a V.I.P. week-end pass to the show for only $25!!

Note that I'm in an exhibit there called "Loverman, Where Can You Be?" and I believe there are TWO books chocked full of the best of the show... and I'm in it! Just look for "Foxy Andy"! I'm proud to be a part of it. I'll most likely be there on Sunday afternoon sketching live models and/ or checking out the show. Stop and say "Hi" and I'll give you some foxy promos! ;)

Foxy Art

2009-03-06T11:30:00.002-05:00

Thought you might like to look at some samples from "Second Chances". It's the first short story (written by Dale Lazarov and colored by Larry Brown) of a series titled "CHUMS".
This story centers around two fellas who meet again at their high school reunion after many years. One is a successful artist, and the other is the jock turned TV sportscaster. Lucky for them the festivities are at a hotel so they don't have far to go to get to a bed! ;)

OH! And don't get confused: there are flashbacks of the characters from when they were in school together, so you get the pleasure of seeing twinks and daddies in one story! ENJOY.

Foxy Art

2009-03-06T11:19:00.003-05:00

Just giving you all an update on my progress on work for the upcoming "Loverman" show. I'm having a lot of fun making portraits of foxy fellas of various sorts. I have about 10 pieces completed, and hope to have at least a few more by showtime.

It's a relief in some ways to get away from the computer and actually use art materials again. I've gotten too used to using digital color and have forgotten how much fun it is. I hope you like what you see from these small samples. Leave a comment and let me know!

Foxy Valentine

2009-02-13T11:39:00.003-05:00

Happy Valentines Day! I know it's over-rated for the most part, but try and remember love is for friends and family, too.

Foxy Art

2009-02-13T11:04:00.003-05:00

Just a little shout out to let you know about an upcoming art show in NYC this APRIL.

It’s called “The Painted Boy”, and I’ll have several pieces in an exhibition called:
“Lover Man Where Can You Be?”

Trust me when I say there are some VERY talented artists here (besides myself) that will be represented, and all the work will be for sale.

So mark your calendar for April 4-5, and come out and show your support!

Would you ever think that while viewing a DaVinci or Hockney you could turn around and see THIS? I would have to pinch myself to prove that I wasn't dreaming... or on the set of some porn movie. If you're in California and get the chance: go to the UCLA Hammer Museum and check this out for yourself!!

2009-02-04T11:35:00.006-05:00

If you're looking for a FOXY Valentine's Day gift for that special someone, might I suggest a copy of Dale Lazarov's latest book: MANLY. Dale has quite the imagination, and artist Amy Colburn has a great, slick and sexy style! You might even like it enough to buy YOURSELF a copy:
http://www.amazon.com/Manly-Dale-Lazarov/dp/3861878879

and if you didn't know... I'm working with Dale on what we're calling "CHUMS". I just finished my first story, called "Second Chances", and proud to announce that Larry Brown is on our team as colorist! No doubt his incredible expertise will enhance and bring greater life to these characters.

Check out this fun interview with Dale, and note that yours truly is mentioned at the end of the article! WOOT! WOOT!
