Hama Sutra

I CAN EXPLAIN!

Okay. Okay, really.

See, for years now, I have been threatening to draw the Hama Sutra. And I have been threatening to do this for a couple of reasons, most notably that A) occasionally artists have NEEDS, damnit, and want to draw something raunchy, but...well...as has already been observed, I have this cuteness problem. And, perhaps more nobly, B) have you ever noticed that all the art about and featuring sex is usually so damn GRIM? I mean sure, some of it's passionate and whatnot, but damned if anybody ever looks like they're having FUN.

I am of the opinion that sex should, at least some of the time, be lighthearted and playful and occasionally silly. And the people--or hamsters--involved should look like they're enjoying themselves, damnit! And...well...a friend of mine offered to write the text for the Hama Sutra, and...well...I was at this bar, and...

If future art historians would ever like to pinpoint the exact moment I secured my place in hell, this one's a good bet.
