what’s that all about? Why is this artist SO interested in porn?

Well. Once upon a time, I read this book:

Not only is this book a thoroughly entertaining read, but it offers tons of insight into the porn industry.

Read it!

I painted all weekend!

Even though I started this painting a couple of weeks ago when I was painting at MAC, I didn’t get a chance to finish it till now…

This is officially painting #4 in my sexy hot chick portrait painting series!!!

I’m SO excited to see them all together…on a gallery wall!

more than sex ??

I love painting porn and hot chicks…but occasionally I’ll steer away and paint something ‘normal’ (lol!) like a portrait.

Here’s a painting I did of my friend, Becki:

My friend, Char, and I were asked to be exhibitors at Boobalicious (a breast cancer awareness fundraiser) in Toronto…

We were SO excited ‘cuz we’ve wanted to show our work together since our days at OCAD…here are some pics:

@Good for Her

I recently had a solo show at Good for Her, a local sex store in Toronto. (How appropriate, right?) I sold a couple of paintings and the store owner said they’ve never had such a positive response to the art on their walls!

Here’s a pic of me and fellow artist friends, Hanna Kostanski and Char Dasilva, on opening night.

The last day at the Everything to Do with Sex Show, I was walking around and stumbled upon the booth of Maxine X. I was like, You’re fkn HoT!!!

Then I realized she totally looked like my ‘SLUTGIRL’ painting…so I gave it to her! and she showed me her boob! That’s a fair trade off, eh?

you+me=SEXy

Any sex show would be incomplete with my sexy porno paintings! So I got a booth for the weekend and chilled with porn stars…

Here’s a pic of my booth:

Scratch Gallery in SNAP

valeria — Tue, 20 Nov 2007 02:58:38 +0000

At the opening reception of “Freaks and Other Strange Creatures” (a group show I participated in) people were snapping pics all over the place.

Needless to say, I didn’t give it a second thought. Until I randomly picked up a SNAP newsletter.

Here I am with my partner, Ryan.

My OCAD workspace

Here’s a photo of my thesis space at Ontario College of Art and Design:

Our space was tiny, but we loved it and we were super productive! The porno painting is mine.

My friend, Char Dasilva, made crazy cakes out of wax…here’s a pic:

My bestest bud, Hanna, and I both endured a year of pain and suffering (for the love of our art, duh!) during our final thesis year at OCAD. We painted and drank 24/7 for an entire year! Here’s Hanna, hard at work:

She’s an incredible artist – check out her site!
