Captured

 

This was a spot illustration for a story concerning a young American soldier captured by Iraqi forces (clearly this was done before "Bush's Folly" as there is no official enemy army to contend with in the current invasion/debacle).  A heated love blossoms between the Arab captain and the blond detainee. I've always been a proponent of gay sex solving any disagreements and rifts among men. The need to get off physically should always trump all prior religious, political and racial commitments. In a dream-life where violence and stupidity can be overcome by throbbing erections, this drawing epitomizes how vast chasms can be bridged with some affectionate animal lust. And I always like using contrasting flesh tones.
