If anyone out there (in Europe?) knows, or could find out, how to contact "Riverstone", I would be eternally in your debt! He has published a number of 'Bandes Dessinees' (french glossy comics, he's a french artist) of an ultra sexually explicit nature. These include: 'Gomorrhe' and 'Alice', and a number of other serials published in various erotic magazines. His work is banned in Canada (that is to say it never makes it past customs) but perhaps through the internet, something may come of it. Communicating with him would be for me, what it would be for you to meet in person your favorite actor/actress. (I do read and write french by the way.)

All these drawings were made when I first started to try to draw. Trying to learn how the pencil worked, how lines looked together, the simplest of things came from these interpretations of "Riverstone's" art. I only did a few directly based on his art, but those few, because of "Riverstone's" talent, remain excellent works. |
| Is it because I learned originally by imitating "Riverstone"
or because I enjoy his imagery so much, that my subsequent drawing so closely
resembles his? Even if I set out to draw something totally divorced from
his style, it will still closely resemble.
I do hope that there shall never be cause for confusion between his art and mine. I shall llikely never be a professional artist and hopefully therefor shall not tread upon his ground. With luck, the most offence I would give him would be cause for his amusement. |

Here I tried to capture the face of Barbie Benton. I think I succeeded
to a degree. It's hard to know though what Barbie Bentons face would look
like in this situation.
(I had a real crush on Barbie Benton in my youth, still do I suppose to some degree. If she were to appear in my dreams one night, consenting to be my 'Bellybutt', likely she would be used somewhat differently than she is used here.) |
