The Snake Charmer

"The Snake Charmer," oil on canvas by Paul Richmond, 40" x 30"
My new painting, “The Snake Charmer,” is the latest in a series of circus/sideshow inspired pieces for my show this summer at the Lyman-Eyer Gallery. I’m enjoying putting my own spin on this theme, in this case modifying the traditional snake charmer image with a tattooed rendition of my own “charmer,” my partner Dennis. “The Snake Charmer” is available to purchase through the Lyman-Eyer Gallery. Visit my page on their site for details. It will be held until the exhibition this summer, opening July 6 and closing July 18. Small, medium, and large limited-edition prints are currently available in my online store.

Pantsing Pinup Boys - Colorful Pants Down Fun for Everyone - Paul Richmond Studio - Vlog 31

My Cheesecake Boys series is all about looking for creative, humorous ways to get guys out of their pants. It's not much deeper than that! They are reminiscent of the pin-up girls popularized in the 40's and 50's with overtly contrived scenarios putting them in imminent danger of having their underwear (or more) exposed. There's a slightly innocent suggestiveness to the works from this time period which I am really drawn to and have been interpreting from a gay male perspective for several years. Now it’s time for everyone to join in the pinup boy pantsing party. I thought it would be awesome to share a new pinup boy sketch with you every Friday so you can print him out and color him however you’d like – crayons, colored pencils, paint, GLITTER…the possibilities are endless!! Make sure you pick some extra cute colors for his undies!  If your coloring skills are more high-tech, feel free to load him into your coloring app of choice and do it that way! I want t...
