I’m a gay freelance illustrator from Illinois. I primarily work in digital art and create a diverse range of artwork, from fantasy to pop culture. But there’s always something gay or a hot guy in the mix. I love painting male figures and often use a suggestive style with a playful and teasing touch.

I’m a Brazilian gay artist who has a deep connection to leather and bondage. Where does my pseudonym come from? I don’t know, I like tigers and I’m black I guess? Through my art I seek to showcase men having a good time together, enjoying their bodies and freedom, in all of its diversity (though some may say I have a particular interest in bears). You can see more of my work if you’re curious on my socials, where I’m always IG: @blktigerart

I could hear what the adults were talking about before the other kids could. So I began to investigate, and listen. I felt like sex was all around me. I found books in my father’s room–Sexual Behavior in the Human Male–and that seemed like a great place to start. I was dazzled by his Tom of Finland art. I grew up in an ideal place. When I saw Robert Conrad as James West in the 1965 television show “The Wild Wild West” getting stripped down and whipped, things started to make sense. I was 11. So I kept reading and looking for all the clues, obvious and hidden. I followed those clues to an avocation and vocation of male sex study and practice.

“Scorpio (if you’re into that) faggot artist living in Brooklyn,” whose works spans drawing, printmaking, painting, making altered books and zines, performing and music. After losing his artistic vision and drive to alcohol and drug addiction, he got sober and hit the ground running with a new body of work that incorporates the vibrancy of queerness and being a leather fucker. He’s inspired by punks, queers, filmmakers, comic books and uninhibited raunchy sex.

Don Chooi loves nothing better than to worship men of all sizes, backgrounds and bedroom skills, and to draw them.

I go by Pig of Arabia––a name that carries my filth, my shame, my freedom. I draw what I’ve done, what I still want done to me, and the lives I’ve only imagined when the lights are off. I use art to explore everything I’ve been too scared to try, too watched to live. It’s kink, but it’s also memory. It’s desire, but also confession. And it’s the only way I get to be whole.

Originally from a small farm town in the sandhills of Nebraska. Always daydreaming of the busy truck stops in town, even as a young buck he needed to know the power and the force that existed only in and came out of those stalls. He moved to the city where he honed in on his very primal urge to make fetish and erotic art, trying his best to portray the simplest and most beautiful thing a dick can do: taking a fat and long piss.
