Artist's Statement

Artist: Michael Todd

Title: Feign Demonic
Statement: The original inspiration to this poster was the subject and his various exotic tattoos. I like tattoos, tattoos make me hot. I felt the heat. Did you? The red hot color and sharp halftones connect with the fiery, carnal instincts deep inside all of us. The defeated demon is not only victim to defeat, but now must writhe in the flames that burn from the passions of all souls.

Title: Armistice
Statement: Armistice is one of my favorite pieces. I composed six of these posters and this one was always my first choice. I love the angle at which the photo was taken. Once I added the coloring, I liked the "army" feel. I love men in uniform, but this one was halfway out of his and it made me want to sign his treaty. In these uncertain military times, we can always be sure of one thing, the men will always be hot. God bless America.

Title: Bound by Anonymity
Statement: This piece is composed of a photo of a man bound. He has been plasterized to preserve his identity. Not due to the subject's wishes, but because I am conveying the feeling of an anonymous masquerade. Who is this person? Why is he so enticing? what is it that draws you in? Do you care? It's intoxicating. It makes your blood rush. Will you see him again? until them, you are Bound by Anonymity.
