New Original & Prints: "Selfie"

Ten years ago I did my first full frontal self-portrait, Naked. I remember feeling anxious about putting it all out there. But at the same time I found it liberating, not to mention a boost to my self-confidence. And while I have since posed for certain parts of my figures, and I was the model for the Restraint series, I hadn't since done a full frontal nude self portrait. But then a friend suggested I do a 10th anniversary piece, and I of course started feeling anxious. But here I am, once again putting it all out there, with my Selfie.

The original is available for immediate purchase, but as part of my upcoming show it will remain with the Lyman-Eyer gallery through July 23rd. 

Limited edition Gallery and Studio prints are available directly through BREYETTE.COM at the special Day of Issue price.

New Release: "Prince of Tides"

You pick out your swimsuit, fill your pack with the essentials - sunscreen, phone, snacks, water, and for some perhaps lube - and then set out on your long, hot trek across the salt marsh. It's not an easy hike, but when you finally arrive and climb up and over the burning sands of the dunes, your journey is rewarded by a beautiful isolated beach on a gorgeous day, a relaxed atmosphere to share with your fellow gays. Swimsuits optional. 

The original is available for immediate purchase, but as part of my upcoming show, it will remain with the Lyman-Eyer Gallery through July 23rd. 

Limited edition Gallery and Studio prints are available directly through BREYETTE.COM at the special Day of Issue prince until midnight EDT tomorrow July 3rd.

There is a dominant trait of competitiveness in men who participate in sports. The very nature of it is to see who is stronger, who is faster, who has more stamina. They are always testing and gauging themselves against the next guy to see how they measure up. And while most straight men wouldn't admit it, they also compare and check out other guys in the men’s room. It simply is in their nature. Perhaps for some, they just assess the physique but you know a lot are going to take the opportunity to check out the whole package. 

Men's Room is my latest work to be included in myupcoming gallery show in Ptown next month. While the original is available for immediate purchase through the Lyman-Eyer Gallery, it won't be delivered until after my show. 

However, limited edition Gallery and Studio prints areavailable for purchase directly through BREYETTE.COM.

New Release: "Carl's Diner"

There's the freshly squeeze OJ, the rich hot coffee, the assorted delectable omelets, crispy home fries, and a seasonal selection of homemade pies. There's also the quaint retro atmosphere and the homespun chit chat. But the number one allure of the diner are the hot truckers that stop in and plant their buns at a counter stool, giving anyone in the opposite booth a hot view to go along with their hot breakfast. At Carl's, you'll want to check out the men and the menu. 

While the original is available for immediate purchase through the Lyman-Eyer Gallery, it must remain with the gallery through the end of my upcoming show this summer.

Day of Issue special price is available on all size prints through June 4 2014 Midnight EDT.

on the drawing board: back to work

It's been awhile since my last post, but I had surgery that was supposed to be fairly minor, then ended up being a bit more complicated.  Anyway I am home and mending.  I've managed to do a little work on the piece I started before my operation.  I'm having to take it easy, and will try to finish as many new works as I can before my show in July at the Lyman-Eyer Gallery in Provincetown. But I am behind schedule....speaking of behinds, how do you like what I've got done so far?

Another cover.

I just received a copy of Walls That Divide by Michael Murphy, from DreamSpinner Press.  It's the latest book they've put out featuring my work (this time La Dolce Vita) on the cover. Cool :-)

Hopefully this summer, perhaps on vacation, I'll get a chance to start reading some of these novels they all look so intriguing. 

Newest Painting / Prints: "Suburbia"

The wife and kids are out. Dad's home alone and got an itch he needs scratched. Gone are the days of going into the city and cruising the gay bars or the video store. A few swipes on the tablet and in no time he's got a hook up ready to come over for some hot play.

My new work, Suburbia, is available for immediate purchase through the Lyman-Eyer Gallery, but must remain with the gallery through the end of my upcoming show this summer.  Limited edition Gallery and Studio prints are available for purchase directly through BREYETTE.COM.

On the drawing board: Dad's waiting

Here's a little corner of my current project.  It's inspired by all the (straight) married guys out there who like to hook up on the DL with other guys.

"The Pick Up": My newest work for my July show

Ever since moving back to town John had wanted to hang out with Patrick, alone. They hadn't seen each other since high school, and even then they hadn't exactly been best friends. But John had always hoped that was due to a mutual attraction that neither had been bold enough to act upon. Well this weekend John was feeling bold. Stopping by Patrick's, he asked his old friend if he'd mind helping out with some yard work, and then maybe hang out after and split a cold six pack. John was thrilled when Patrick eagerly accepted with a huge grin and the hint of a devilish sparkle in his eye. 

While the original is available for purchase, it will remain with the Lyman-Eyer gallery through the end of my show this July. However limited edition Gallery and Studio prints are available for purchase direct through BREYETTE.COM.
