the db site is not here to draw you away from artists,
on the contrary!
I'm not selling prints or merchandise.
I'm just here to draw your attention to some of the great artists
that you may not have found elsewhere. Lots of artists do sell works
or reproductions through their own site or agents. This is where the linkslist below may be useful . . .
no pretention of being complete here . . . just some artists who have great sites of themselves,
which makes it kind of useless to copy their work to db pages.
( personal preferences did play a role in the selection )
broeksma, ewoud, dutch photographer (great calendar of dutch male athens-olympic sportsmen, nude of course)
Bernard native Souh African now lives with adopted son in Netherlands, where he thought he could escape agression and prosecution he encountered in South Africa
and on Art Bernard you could see his work.
If you've seen it, you must admit he's one of the most gifted craftsmen!
he's been given an abismal hard time by justice officials, even in our tolerant country, back in 2008, but still works on.

artist inspired by the stations of Christ and the new York piers of the seventies and . . . cowboys:
Röhm heavy duty, s&M and torture art; to some possibly perverse or offensive.
this site can be excused for having a very limited public section, as with more detail they would only be innundated by hatemail and aggro.
tom jones finally has a resurfaced website online and I must say: tomjonesmen.xyz is updating his life story. I read it all in one go. Just wonderful! He was gorgeous, and still is.
wimgriffith does all possible and some impossible techniques
Boymans Rotterdam lots of dutch painters and other art (beware of popups!)
I live in his town you know, on the corner of Vermeerstreet, and work (parttime at the Vermeer Center even ! pretty vast and hightec site though, a historic museum in itself (walk through Delft in 3D in 1660, through his house at Oude Langendijk, ArtGuild inventories from 16th century on, etc.)
shipbuilding is part of my heritage, and the reconstruction of this old merchant/war ship named after my hometown is rightfully here. This also honours the memory of my friend Pieter, who was shipbuilder and conservator at the Maritime museum in Amsterdam
art renewal window on a recent artists movement that strives to restore respectability for figurative art and strongly rejects the art elitist who controlled public musea and the "respected' artworld and have alledgedly driven art appreciation away from the common man's taste.
The group supports and funds traditional artists crafts training and education. Quite some homo erotic artists feel they're part of this movement.
