Order the shirt: https://traxlertees.com/products/chechnya-lgbt-awareness-t-shirt Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, & Biphobia, and we need to talk about what’s happening in Chechnya. You’re not hearing about it from our politicians or most of our news media, but it's important. Chechnya's a republic of Russia. Gay and bisexual men there are being rounded up and held in torture camps. Over a hundred have been arrested and there have been at least three deaths. One survivor said “Once they bring you there, they immediately start the beatings and electrocutions, demanding information about who you were dating.” A spokesperson denied the reports saying it can't be true bc there ARE no gay people in Chechnya. Which is bullshit and terrifying. That is Hitler mentality right there - alive and well in 2017. I want to be VERY clear: It is NOT acceptable for anyone anywhere in a position of influence to turn a blind eye to thi...

*Ring Ring* What’s up? It’s coloring time!  Download this week’s #FridayFreebies pinup boy coloring page: http://paulrichmondstudio.com/fridayfreebies   **New this week - I also posted an alternate version formatted for the Recolor app for those who like to color digitally.  Be sure to share your awesome creations with me by posting and tagging them #PaulRichmondStudio! Happy coloring everyone!! 

This week’s #FridayFreebies Cheesecake Boy was inspired by two things: #1.) my love of pinup artist Art Frahm and his subjects’ eternal struggles with strong winds and weak elastic, and #2.) the fun time my husband and I had when we stumbled across the Kilted Bros store during a trip to Cleveland and both ended up buying our first kilts. Their slogan is “drop your pants here,” which spoke to my heart! Download the hi-res pic and start coloring at paulrichmondstudio.com/fridayfreebies .

It is no secret that I am a huge Dolly Parton fan! Besides being super talented and adorable in every way, she has gifted us with so many pearls of wisdom over the years. Here are my top 10 favorite Dollyisms - quotes from the queen of Dollywood herself on life, love, and how to look like a hooker. --- Step into the weird and wonderful world of artist Paul Richmond, where anything could go down -- even a pin-up boys' pants!

I've been to Pulse Orlando and like so many people, I've been shaken up all day by this horrific tragedy. The best way I know how to come to terms with something inexplicable is to create, so I'm really grateful to Traxler Tees for partnering with me to release this tshirt design I created to represent solidarity and to show support for the victims. ALL of the proceeds will go to the GoFundMe account that has been established for this tragedy. Please consider ordering one and help me spread the word: http://traxlertees.com/products/one-pulse-support-t-shirt

I first met Joshua and his husband Steve when they organized a bus trip for 25 LGBT couples (including my husband and me) to Washington DC so we could get married in front of the Supreme Court prior to the overturning of DOMA. Steve Snyder-Hill is well known for being the "booed soldier" who asked a question about Don't Ask Don't Tell during a 2011 Republican Presidential Debate that made headlines because none of the candidates stood up for him when the audience acted like a bunch of jerks.

In state after state - most recently North Carolina and Georgia - we see them pushing for legislation to force transgender people into the wrong bathrooms, casting them as the predators when they in fact are the ones preying on the ignorance and fear of their constituents.
