The Living Works of Art Challenge

I hate it when a job goes south. I'm a lover not a fighter. Usually I'm fast enough but not this time. This could be the end...

If you don't hear from me again remember...

"The pellet with the poison’s
in the flagon with the dragon;
the vessel with the pestle
has the brew that is true."​

Oh no you don't sexy! You will stay so I can feast my eyes on your next pose.
 
Oh, no, you don't get off that easy. This is not 5 of 5. We are doing at least 12. How else can I put together the "Living Works of Art - Featuring the Men of Lit" calendar?

-TPFS

PS to the ladies: These will be limited edition, place your order now :D

12?

*checks sign-up sheet*
*considers contesting*
*thinks of the ladies*


So 7 more weeks huh? That means we're done by early November? In time for Thanksgiving. So no poses with Turkeys. Goof!

I call dibs on July! Wait until you see what I do with the pinwheel sparklers. :)

What about a coffee table book. That'd be nice.🤗

Oh yes. Madonna style. Really gritty and in your face. I love it!

Since I don't have Twister, this is the best "dying" portrayal I could come up with.

Death of an Era

Disco is too big to fail! Wait?!? Oh Twister! Why didn't I think of that? Sword on Green, Blood drops on Red, Cold Feet on Blue.

Excellent shot wilderness. The musical theme has been fun.

My effort keeping my head up high, I ain't dying just yet 😉

Of course your head us up. Those of us about too die have to salute and that's hard to do with your head down. Looks more like a facepalm.

Thanks for supporting Art History month!

Thank you, JR, for coming up with this amazing thread. Using works of art as inspiration to showcase the male body is so much more appealing than the usual pictures you see here on Lit. There is something to be said about leaving something to the imagination. You gentleman are doing a wonderful job with the challenges. Thanks again for a great thread.

Thanks S2VA (that's pronounced Stuva)! :rose: The challenges are a ball (sometimes two :p).

To the host and creator of this thread....thank you. Your idea is original and in short..Fabulous!!!!

To the gentleman that have contributed to this thread..another hearty thank you! There is such beauty in the male form and I see it expressed in each of you.

I so appreciate those of you that have contributed to the thread and look forward to seeing more.

I am breathless......

Thanks Lovely2x4. :rose: It seems our limited engagement has been extended. Well not an engagement between you and I. An engagement between JRP and I. Who knew two packs of cigarettes would buy so much?!? If you become breathless again let me know. I've had CPR training and I think some mouth to mouth and chest compressions might help. ;)

Ditto into infinity! Thank you for blending classicism and the male body-- art and beauty plus sexiness of the male body.. :rose:

Lady Ver you've opened up so much I feel I should turn back the hands of time to the early days of my thread and see if you've changed your mind. That aside, thanks. :rose::rose: Thread has proven to be both a challenge and loads of fun.

Cheers

You're unforgettable, Rogue. Well done! :rose::kiss:

LOL! No, the challis from the palace!

A blast from the past.
 
My dear sir.... you are spectacular!

This gentleman is really, really liking the return of Lovely2222. You are so sweet.

12?

"Considers contesting?" Oh no. You don't have a choice. If you don't, I am pretty certain these ladies will track you down and show up one night at your place of abode with torches and pitchforks . . . or was that whips and chains?
 

I see you're not dying, in fact, you're killing it with this pose. Very nice.

I think I look better dying under Disco lights. Thanks, Icy!

Another great bit of Icy's artistry to add to the model's nice form.

You look pretty good for such a wounded guy. Here's hoping you recover and add more to this sexy art museum.
 
Beautiful renditions of The Dying Gaul gentlemen. Can't wait for the next challenge. My love of art has taken a new direction.

Oh, where do I sign up for that calendar? That will be priceless. 💋
 
DISCLAIMER: No excuses, no justification and no rationalizations. I'm sorry.

SUPERB!
Thank you for this. For once I have been de-snarked.

:eek: And for once I am both speechless and de-snarked. *kisses the back of your hand* :kiss: :kiss: One for each (but each what?!?).

Nice work.

I hope all you guys survive for next week's challenge.

Oh! Good idea Icy. A survivor style thread. With challenges and teams. People getting voted off the thread. Alliances and treachery... oh wait Lit already has those. Come to think of there's enough competition in the world. Let's just have fun. :kiss:

Great job!! Xo

Thanks Kim! :kiss: You're one of the people I try to do my best for in my posts (and try for even better than that in my PMs :devil:).

How dramatic. I see you broke out the bed quilt for this one. I hope you didn't get any blood on it. :rolleyes:

Comedy and Drama lie at the core of the performing arts and your thread is just that - performance art. My default is comedy so I switched it up this time. I had the sheets out first but then I remembered I live in the south and sheets freak some people out down here. :p Nope I managed to keep the blood to myself and didn't even smear it once during for the whole photo shoot.

Cheers

Infamy is what we rogues shoot for: Dread Pirate Roberts, Robin Hood, Zorro... Hmm I just realized all the infamous rogues were good at combat and/or had a signature weapon. I wonder what should I pick for my signature weapon?

Thanks Mara. :rose:

I glad another of the other chronologically gifted would got the reference. :D

Well the fine print did clearly state 5. I saw no verbiage about extending the period of performance. Torches, pitchforks, whips and chains? Sounds like that one night in college... :eek: I mean "I have no recollection of the events of that night." Though whips and chains might be fun (yes you can bring the flogger too) most of the ladies know exactly what to bring if they want me to stay.

You look pretty good for such a wounded guy. Here's hoping you recover and add more to this sexy art museum.

Thanks Ms G.:rose: It twas but a scratch. For a moment I thought my arm was off. Turned out I'd had worse. It was just a flesh wound. Lucky for me I'm invincible!

I recover quickly Ms G. If not there's Viagra...I mean ibuprofen. :eek:

Oh...Stuva you snuck in. I knew I should have gone for coffee and breakfast before attempting to answer.

Thanks! :kiss: Well we all [digression] hey if you all is y'all in Texas is we all w'all? [/digression] were dying to support JRPs thread again and give you ladies another "art lesson".

The Kickstarter link for the calendar goes up next week. As an FYI there's only one spot on the top tier. At that level all 12 guys stop by and personally "autograph your calendar". ;)

Thanks for "stopping by".

Cheers

Awww, HR, nooooooooooo, don't go!! Fuck the light, turn around!! ;)

Best thing about this pose is all these hot men needing CPR!!! Thanks JR!! :D

They aren't dead yet Tali, ;) but I suppose we could practice the CPR, wonder who should we practice on first? :devil::D

We'll start with JR, he started all this!! :)

Awesome!!

Line start behind JR fellas!! :D

You know it only takes two for optimal CPR. One does the mouth to mouth and the other does the "compression". They can even swap off when someone gets tired. If enough ladies volunteer we don't need a line. All the men can get CPR at the same time. It will be a veritable orgy of health care. Just a thought. Statuary makes me think of the Greeks and Romans and the the Greeks and Romans make me think of... ah... CPR parties.

Cheers

Or three HR! You know there's another spot that might need resuscitation, just sayin'!

Maybe something like a progressive barn dance.
 
*Strolls into museum, sees all manner of hanky-panky going on* :eek:

What have you folks been up to? Looks like you've been getting into all sorts of trouble while I was gone.

Patrons fraternizing with the statues? I'm not sure that's a good . . . What? Lay down? No, I don't really need CPR . . . well maybe a little mouth to mouth.

Um . . . *smack, smooch* . . . well, when in Rome, or a Roman statue exhibit . . .

Welcome back JRP. It occurred to me that the majority of those taking on the challenge fall in the "Old Enough to Know Better" category. With all the lovely ladies dropping in to appreciate our...ah...artwork and stroking our...ah...egos it might be a good idea to make sure someone knows CPR.

Just in case.

Oh! Did you buy any of those automatic electronic defibrillators (AEDs) for the museum? If we have an AED or two the ladies don't have to be so excited about and emphatic in their CPR classes.

Your museum. Your call.

Cheers
