Sensual Distress: Volume 2

Sun May 10, 2009, 12:04 AM
GREETINGS RENOGADES!

Well, Volume 2 of my Homage to all things "Damsel in Distressy" is out and available now at Amazon.com.

So What IS Sensual Distress? I think I said it best in Volume One-

First and foremost it is Fantasy.
It is sensuality mixed with vulnerability.
It is the sexy side of the Damsel in Distress.
It is, simply put, beautiful women in erotic peril.

Whether they are bound and gagged, held at the whims of a dastardly villian, or attacked by mysterious creatures with a taste for pleasure, these helpless heroines dance with danger to the delight of the attentive viewer. For some, they make us dream of being a gallant Knight who rides in on a fiery steed to rescue the fair Princess. For others, they seduce our darker side, making us envious of the villians power over the captured maiden. Then there are those who put themselves in the place of the alluring captive, empathizing with the helplessness of her situation.

It's been said that danger is the greatest thrill, sex is our deepest desire, and power is the ultimate aphrodisiac. Sensual Distress is a fusion of the three. It can be seen as exciting. It can be seen as perverse. It can arouse and it can incense. It can be a call to the Hero inside of us or a temptation to the Villian we mask. Within these opposing forces we can find ourselves at times living in both the light and the darkness of our psyche simultaneously. We feel that we would fight the Armies of Hell to save the helpless heroine, only to find defeat by our own personal demons. To save the beauty or sieze the moment. To rescue or to ravish. To free her or to f... well, you get the idea.
That is the dichotomy of Sensual Distress.

It is the PRIDE of the hero
and the GREED to receive his "rewards".
To have ANGER over the villian's deeds
but to feel ENVY for their power.
To be GLUTTONOUS in the indulgence
of all our LUSTFUL instincts
and not have to lift a finger...

except to turn the page.

It's simply SINFUL!

When I look at your artwork, I can actually feel the wind beneath my wings.

I have gotten quite a few ideas just from browsing your stuff.
:iconkristinebutterfly:
I know I have never commentd on your artwork or profile before, but I just wanted to say that I've been a huge fan of yours for a couple of years now. Your style is astounding! Keep up the fantastic work!

Reno, I'm going into withdrawal, man!

There hasn't been enough of your stuff lately.

Any plans to post more of your stuff, soon?

Either way, take it easy, and best of luck with all of your RL endeavors.
:iconsteveoreno:
Great to hear from you! Yeah, RL has pretty much put any new artwork on hold for a while... I'll at least post some stuff from "Sensual Distress" Volume 2 very soon.

:icondexterguy:
Just wanted to say great artwork. Really really fantastic art.
:iconsthlrd67:
I've been a huge fan of your DID art ever since I discovered it over at the Disturbed Things forum.
Wanted to ask, is there a volume 3 in the future and what are the chances of seeing some of this great art in color ?

sthlrd67
:iconsteveoreno:
Thanks for the compliments! The offer is on the table for a new color book at SQP, but RL has sidelined my artwork output to practically nothing lately. As for current works done in color... most likely not. Color work can get mind numbingly tedious for me so I only do it when necessary. (But there are a few I had thought about doing in color someday)

B-) Reno
:iconsthlrd67:
I can fully understand how RL can effect anything anyone loves to do. It's happened to me a time or two. As to coloring your work, its just something I threw out there seeing that a few have been done already.

Really enjoyed your gallery. I have all the respect in the world for those who create without the undo button. Very old-school classic. Thought you might appreciate some of the bondage art that I create for my post here as well as my site. Great work.
