Chad worked as the cable guy for the local cable company.  He had a quiet mystique in his eyes that I was drawn to instantly.  I met him out socially with friends and then befriended him on Facebook.  I really wanted to create some sort of portrait of him and capture the subtle intense allure he seemed to keep hidden within his quiet personality.  He had seen the links to The Naked Man Project on Facebook and asked if I would consider using him for the project.  I was actually surprised because I knew he was straight, and felt a bit intimidated to photograph him naked, but he seemed so comfortable that I agreed.  He came to the studio with his girlfriend the first time and we began to do some tests.  He seemed so natural and comfortable the more he exposed himself.  He had always worn bulky clothes so it was fascinating to see what a well-defined body he revealed as he began to strip completely nude.  We ended up shooting three different sessions.  These are a few selected images from those shoots.  He recently moved back to this hometown in Havre on the Montana Highline, but comes back to visit quite often with plans to work on more images in the future.

MY LIFE -  Story and Art by Australian Aritst John Douglas

Following an embarrassing après-dinner incident at a Gentleman’s Club, where I simultaneously ejaculated semen and fettuccine over my anonymous friend then skulked home covered in stringy alien afterbirth, I decided to become a recluse.  I began to haunt chat rooms on the Internet.  The best part about chat rooms is that you can be anyone. A Polio stricken Marianne Faithful impersonator rasping from an iron lung. An amputee dwarf into electro-sex, tapping on a tiny keyboard with a hook.

Movie Of The Week

movie poster for film VELVET GOLDMINEVelvet Goldmine (British)

A visual romp through the world of 1970’s glam rock, where anything can happen and often done. It’s Citizen Kane sort of story structure leads to unpredictable places often spiraling out of control.  A stunning film to watch with a great sound track but often loses its way along the journey.  Overall very fun to watch with these three great actors: McGregor, Rhys Meyers, and Bale in their youth; giving powerhouse performances and often naked.  [read review]
