“Whether a different color or age or in this case compacted, surgically abbreviated or genetically stunted, we are all queers and very equal in the most relevant way possible.”

Michael later said of these drawings:
“Back when I began my career/vocation I was determined to portray as many different kinds of queers as I could imagine (whom I'd certainly have eager sex with) and thought some were kept invisible by most of the gay artists of that era.”

Enjoy a traditional "Fat Tuesday" before settling down for a long Winter’s Lent.
Blow a fat guy! Eat a plump ass! Feed a chub!
Sure it's just an English-ized translation of “Mardi Gras,” but you can still make a fat guy’s day with some weighty cock play.

Jump on the bed all you want!
That’s awesome you have that Playguy issue and remembered Michael’s art (and writing).
Those drawings will be appearing “fresh and new”… soon. 😉

Great piece. Wonderful work.
Never was my boyfriend either. 😟

Michael said: "When I am working on a project that goes on for weeks, I have to stop and take a break and draw something very different to give my creative batteries a quick recharge."
This was his "break."

Unfortunately, the Center for Art Law does not seem to have a BlueSky account. Still it is a good idea for artists to subscribe to the mailing list for helpful info via the website.
itsartlaw.org/mission/
It is also important that the artist or gallery list shipment as “original one-of-a-kind artwork” to support the exempt from tariff claim.
Hope that info may lead you towards successful research.

In our recent experience with purchasing original works from Canada, France, Mexico, Spain, and Italy, we have had to educate (aka “argue with” by presenting the applicable exemption statute) the Custom’s rep to get the tariff charge reversed/credited. So far, it has worked, but required effort.

Quoting from the article from the Center for Art Law:
“At this stage, it appears that the interpretation of tariff classification is ultimately left to the discretion of the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer reviewing the shipment.”
With all the crazy shit going on with tariffs, it is helpful to know that original artwork, paintings, drawings, and the like are exempt from tariffs.
So, exercise your First Amendment’s rights and support artists and buy art.
