Kent Neffendorf: Icons of Masculinity

Kent Neffendorf, born in 1959, is an American homoerotic artist. He lives in Texas.
 
The art of Kent depicts nude and partially clothed male figures as icons of masculinity and sexuality. The subjects are exhibitionists or voyeurs or both. The paintings herein feature pinup works, crotch shots and glimpses of the modern life of gay men cruising and engaging in sex with an emphasis on clothing as fetish. Underwear bulges, particularly briefs and boxers, are an ongoing obsession.

If you maybe put the name of the artist in the note of the icon, I believe he wouldn't mind ;-) Elisa
