“Manners” starring Flavia A — it’s in the jeans…

Flavia A: Manners, by Leonardo, tight jeans and spread pink pix

A model’s beauty begins with her genetic gifts. To that baseline we add the enhancements provided by the make-up artist and stylist, and the photographer makes his own technical and aesthetic judgments to create a finished photo series. But before the grammar police point out that I’ve misspelled “jeans” in the title of this post, let me clarify.

Flavia A is, without question, genetically gifted. From head to toe she is a physical treat, with her beguiling, lively blue eyes, creamy complexion, and long, flowing hair being particularly noteworthy. The “jeans” I refer to in the title are a particularly tenacious pair of trousers. Flavia A spends over half the series wearing those denim dungarees, and even when they finally start to come off it is a very slow, teasing process. And it appears that the model and photographer, Leonardo, are aware of this. In #070 Flavia sits on the floor while holding the neatly folded garment in her hands as if to say, “I’m naked, finally, and now I’m going to put these away and let you have a good look at my nude body.”

And, in short order, that’s exactly what happens! As I noted when I reviewed her very first MetArt erotic photo gallery, Flavia A is not at all inhibited. And in “Manners” Leonardo takes full advantage of this personality trait. In the cluster of shots spanning #078 through #084, to cite but a few choice examples, Flavia spreads her thighs wide and delivers eye-opening views of her pink succulence. I will note that this brazen display is accompanied by lively, teasing, playful facial expressions that only enhance the explicit images.

“Manners” offers considerable variety in terms of pose, composition, and attitude. Explicit shots, as mentioned, are plentiful, but high style pin-ups with more than a touch of Hollywood glamour are also presented (see #001, #021, #071, and #104).

Whether she’s in the jeans — and particularly when she’s out of them — Flavia A is exceptionally enjoyable in “Manners,” and the combination of the model’s genetic gifts and the photographer’s stylish execution result in a roundly successful piece of erotic art.

“Provalo” starring Mila I — flower power…

Mila I: Provalo, by Tony Murano, hot, explicit erotic nude art photosCalling a model in her early twenties a “veteran” seems a bit odd, but “Provalo” is Mila I‘s forty-ninth appearance at MetArt so the description is fitting. And it’s quite easy to understand this beautiful blonde’s enduring appeal. She’s physically enticing, of course, but Mila I also has a spirited, lively personality that is easily captured in still photos or on video.

In looking at Mila I’s impressive catalog I notice something interesting. Although she’s worked with a diverse assortment of MetArt contributing photographers, eight of her ten most highly rated pictorials were created by one artist, Tony Murano. With “Provalo” I have a chance to see for myself why this particular team has proven to be so popular and successful.

Although the very first image is tilted for no obvious reason (a pet peeve of mine), the lighting and set design is pleasing, and Mila’s styling is a bit more polished than usual, which is also pleasing — Mila is nothing if not versatile, and here’s yet more proof. Then model and artist begin to experiment. In #005 we Mila is in a thoughtful mood, but by #009, still fully dressed, she expresses sexual ecstasy.

Explicit and unashamedly sexual imagery is a Tony Murano trademark, and as “Provalo” progresses it offers ever-increasing eroticism. While Mila I is undeniably cute with a bright and charming spirit, she’s also powerfully sexy, and this series captures that aspect of her personality quite impressively.

Yes, there are “tame” yet stylish photos here – #047, a study of Mila’s breasts with several flowers slightly out of focus in the background is one example. And the architecture of her body is rendered to striking effect in #072. Here Mila’s shoulders are on the floor and her body arches upward, supported by her legs up on the bed.

But the main course here is flowers — of two distinct varieties. Toward the end of “Provalo” Mila’s is in glistening full bloom as it is showered with yellow petals. And in the final shot, an extreme close-up, a single golden petal is held near a pink blossom of incomparable beauty. That’s what I call flower power!

“Diffusio” starring Margita Lesna — gloriously gorgeous and glamorous…

Margita Lesna: Diffusio, by Arkisi, stunning beauty/explicit nude pixWow. I could stop there and be satisfied that I’d accurately and concisely conveyed my reaction to this MetArt erotic gallery. But this model is so impressive, and the photography is so skillful, that I will elaborate.

The magic begins at the very beginning — image #001. It’s a headshot and Margita Lesna calmly gazes at the camera with her big, dark blue eyes. The lighting is subdued, the room behind her shadowy, her beauty truly luminous. Yes, this photo, in its restrained way, elicits a “wow” from me. But at this point I have no idea how many more wows are still in store.

There is a logic to Arkisi‘s pacing through the series, but it doesn’t waste any time getting explicit or drawing out the tease unnecessarily. By #015 we’re treated to a luscious close-up of Margita’s femininity framed by the fingers of both hands — yes, another wow-inducing image.

There’s much, much more in the way of eye-popping erotic imagery in “Diffusio,” but the impact of this set comes as much from its beauty as from its steamy and inviting sexuality. The lighting, the relaxed atmosphere in this particular bedroom, the costuming (fishnet hose and little else), styling, art direction, all these elements work in rare harmony.

Margita Lesna’s beauty is absolutely wow-worthy. Her gorgeous face is framed by a luxurious mane of long wavy hair — in #035, #036, and #037 it plays a starring role. And this model’s lips, full, plump and luscious are also notable. But then, so much of her is. In shot after shot I find myself murmuring…wow.

Tasteful pin-ups, a varied selection of headshots, steamy explicit poses, and all captured with a smooth, understated style. Arkisi’s “Diffusio” starring Margita Lesna skillfully showcases a gloriously gorgeous and glamorous model.

“Vereint” starring Amelie B — boudoir beauty…

Amelie B: Vereint, by Leonardo, elegant beauty nude in a boudoirA cozy bedroom decorated in a homey, casual style provides a fitting backdrop in the MetArt erotic photo set titled “Vereint.” That’s almost surprising in view of the fact that the subject of the pictorial is a glamorous beauty who would look right at home in the most luxurious, elegant surroundings imaginable. But here Amelie B makes this humble bedroom look irresistibly inviting.

Prolific MetArt contributor Leonardo employs a somewhat subdued style here, and doesn’t rely on any dramatic lighting design. Instead he and his model tell a simple and enjoyable story in photographs.

As it begins we find Amelie B seated on the fully dressed bed. Amelie is  dressed, as well, in a cute and sexy pink bra and panties set, trimmed in white. She’s got a girlish bow in her hair, and those rich, wavy, auburn tresses frame her pleasingly angular face to perfection.

As the set unfolds the lingerie eventually comes off, but even before she’s exposed we’re treated to many enticing images. Of these clothed shots I particularly enjoyed #006 (for pure beauty), #008 (for her eyes), #018 (face and lustrous hair), and #021 (for the sexy attitude).

As Amelie B removes her lingerie, the blankets come off the bed. It’s only logical — and certainly a desirable progression — but it also contributes to the “story” in a subtle and effortless manner. When the model is totally nude and sprawling on the white bed linens she delivers several striking pin-ups — #091, with her long hair hanging off the edge of the bed and her eyes projecting a sultry invitation, is one stylish and evocative example.

While there are certainly explicit images here, as well there should be, “Vereint” lacks any true explicit close-ups. I do wish some were included, but Amelie is so beautiful and engaging that I’m willing to overlook the omission. The chance to spend time in the boudoir, even if only vicariously, with a beauty of this caliber is a chance to be savored, and this pictorial allows us ample opportunity to do exactly that!

“Voile” starring Mia Sollis — through a bird’s eyes…

Mia Sollis: Voile, by DeltaGamma, camera aloft shoots beauty belowLooking at erotic art photographs — that’s where my job here begins. And during my tenure as MetArt‘s blogger I’ve looked at many hundreds of pictorials, and studied nearly 100,000 individual images. Yes, it’s a dirty job, and I’m lucky enough to get to do it.

Sometimes it’s the model who makes a set successful. Sometimes it’s a scenic or picturesque location. There are series in which the artist and photographer have a rapport that results in exceptional photographs. And sometimes, although relatively rarely, a photographer comes up with a unique aesthetic concept for a set and executes it to perfection. And this last option is what I have the pleasure of discussing today.

The artist with the cryptic and mysterious name DeltaGamma has created something wonderful here. It is a splendid showcase for the model, Mia Sollis, and it seems tailored to her in many ways. But I can also easily imagine this treatment being applied with equal success to other models.

Voile” takes simple elements, adds a twist, and the result is far greater than the basic components. We have a floor of large white tiles, the grout lines cross on the diagonal forming a grid. A large piece of sheer white fabric gives the pictorial its title, gives Mia Sollis something to wrap her beautiful body in, and adds a suggestion of clouds or smoke to some shots. The twist DeltaGamma employs to such excellent effect is his angle or POV — he’s placed the camera above the model and shoots down on her for the bulk of the set. The combination of the high (and highly unusual) angle, the pattern of the tiles, and the effect of the fabric is truly striking.

When the floor becomes the “backdrop” it forces the model to pose in new and different ways. Here Mia Sollis does most of her posing while lying on the floor, and this creates the illusion that she’s floating in space. In several images she bridges her body off the floor, supporting herself with her feet and shoulders. And in others she aligns herself against the grid to mix crisp geometry with the soft curves of her body.

I might end this post with a list of favorite images, but I’ll restrain myself. Instead I’ll simply suggest you take a look at “Voile” for yourself. I’d be interested in hearing your impressions, whether you agree with my opinions, or not.

“Maua” starring Adelia A — two blues, two pinks, one blonde…

Adelia A: Maua, by Leonardo, blue sky, pink flowers, pink female parts

The obvious and undisputed star of this MetArt erotic photo gallery is Adelia A, but she’s got a costar here, playing a particularly impressive supporting role, and that’s color. The almost shocking blue of the cloudless sky, and the darker blue of the ocean, the bright pink of oleander flowers, and a frequently offered view of an entirely different shade of that most feminine of colors, give this gallery a vivid and eye-catching energy.

Leonardo has employed this location before, but I’m not complaining. The balustrades meeting at right angles and a column at their junction provide an interesting posing platform, and the bright white color of these architectural elements serves to heighten the intensity of the other colors.

I consider myself a fan of Adelia A. There are models with more emotional or expressive range, I’ll admit, and her hair may have strayed too far into the platinum range for those who prefer a more natural look, but I find her attitude and fit, compact body very pleasing. She’s quite free with that body, as well, and there are an assortment of particularly revealing explicit images to be savored in “Maua.”

One curious aspect of the series is that Adelia A is totally nude from the first shot, but suddenly appears in a summery dress in #108 and remains dressed for the rest of the set. This isn’t a complaint so much as an observation, and it doesn’t diminish my enjoyment of the gallery. Favorites? I like the pose, composition, and colors in #042. Both shades of pink — flower and flesh — are pleasingly present in #085. And Leonardo’s deft lighting really brings out Adelia’s eyes in #107.

“Prestol” starring Candy Rose — sweet, sexy, sensational…

Candy Rose: Prestol, by Rylsky sexy, talented model, superior art pix

Beautiful, sexy girl! Gorgeous, creative photography! Thank you, Candy Rose and Rylsky, for giving me the opportunity to write the shortest review in the history of the MetArt blog!

I’m joking, of course. The MetArt erotic photo series “Prestol,” thanks to the beauty and talent of its star and the skill and artistry of its creator is more than worthy of close study and thoughtful examination.

My initial impressions were highly favorable, but only after I’d looked at the entire collection was I fully able to appreciate all that it has to offer. There is a lot of variety here, in terms of photographic styles, in terms of poses and compositions, and in terms of moods and emotions. “Prestol” offers a truly rich, complex experience that will hold up over time and which will reward repeat viewings — not something that can be said of every set.

This is the eighth pictorial in Candy’s MetArt portfolio, all of which were shot by Rylsky. Candy Rose is a fine physical specimen with a beautiful face and an eye-catching hairstyle consisting of straight-cut bangs that subtly recall legendary photo model Bettie Page. As enticing as she is physically, it’s Candy’s personality that’s so engaging and intriguing in these photos — this is a rich, nuanced, playful, and irresistible performance that covers the full range from demure to decadent with effortless ease. What a beautiful, sexy, and talented girl she is!

Rylsky is in top form here. The room much of the set takes place in is dark, with two different complex wallpaper patterns on adjoining walls, an ornate chair, and subtle, moody lighting. But even when things get crazy — when the chair is placed unsteadily on a bed — it all somehow works. And when the setting changes to softly diffused light and white, artificial flowers, and gauzy curtains, the mood and style is completely different yet somehow it remains a logical part of a totally satisfying whole. Rather than listing a few of my favorites I suggest you take a leisurely look at “Prestol” and pick your own. That’s no easy task with so many fine images to chose from, but it’s very enjoyable work!

“Vendim” with Katy D — all the chair’s a stage…

Katy D: Vendim, by Sergey Akion, expressive model in erotic art pix

A chair positioned in front of a wall covered with elaborately draped curtains provides the posing platform for the vast majority of this voluminous (167 image) MetArt erotic photo series. The model, one I have commented on once before, utilizes it quite well, and comes up with an impressive variety of poses and positions on this solitary piece of furniture.

Katy D‘s presentation is somewhat less polished and styled than the previous set I critiqued, but she exhibits a similar emotional range and versatility here. She can look young and innocent, older and wiser, sweet, devilish, playful, and thoughtful — and in a set containing so many photos she explores all of these looks, and then some more.

Considering that this is a model who can project so many looks, Sergey Akion made a clever decision by shooting her on such a confined, compact “stage.” With her slender body and delicate features a model like Katy D might get lost in a more expansive, more complicated set design. Here she’s front and center and the artist can experiment with lighting and composition while Katy experiments with mood and position.

I always welcome these large sets — who among us doesn’t like more of a good thing? — but that’s not to say that this pictorial would suffer with a bit of judicious editing. There are several “bloopers” in this big bunch, and a couple of shots that simply shouldn’t have been included. It is easy enough for the MetArt member to ignore or discard these flawed images, but why include them in the set to begin with?

When it comes to picking favorites in “Vendim,” I like Katy D’s glamour look in #060, and her far away eyes in #074, as well as the painterly quality of #088, the spontaneous smile in #129, and the moody, stylish beauty of #135. What are your thoughts about this set, good, bad, or indifferent? Feel free to share your opinions in the comments, below.

“Champan” starring Nastya K — in bed with a bottle of bubbly…

Nastya K: Champan, by Catherine, explicit, intoxicating erotic art pix

A pair of sheer white panties constitute the only bit of wardrobe in this MetArt erotic photo gallery, and a glass of wine and ice bucket holding a bottle of Champagne are the only props, but thanks to the model’s beauty and the artist’s skill, these minimal ingredients yield maximum results.

I reviewed 18-year-old Nastya K’s very first MetArt gallery, and it was a steamy and highly successful set. Catherine shot that pictorial, and I had high praise for her, as well. Rather than a natural setting, as in the debut, here we’re indoors, and “Champan” proves that the success of that first series was no fluke.

The series takes place on a sprawling, snow white duvet spread over a sofa. The back wall is subtly lit giving it a yellow/orange tint that adds interest while flattering Nastya’s coloring. From her flawless skin to the dark browns of her hair and eyes, to the vivid pink so often on view here, the model is exquisitely presented. The props also lend themselves to the pin-up genre, of which #004 and #041 are two stylish examples.

Even without its explicit images, and there are many of those, this is a very sexy set. There are several shots of Nastya K avidly sucking a finger (see #077), but I think this may be the slightest bit heavy-handed — this nubile vixen doesn’t need to resort to such theatrics to get her message across.

Champan” is filled with beautiful images, too many to call out individually, but here are a few of my personal favorites: #066, a stylized and interesting pose that shows off her body as well as her face. #079, another creative pose, a sultry expression, and an artfully framed composition. Of the explicit shots, I like the frontal view in #073 and the bold, buns-up stance in #055. And for pure, demure, adorability, it’s difficult to top #081. In “Champan” Nastya K and Catherine have created an intoxicating work of erotic art.
