This one’s a keeper. I recently discovered a site with innumerable artists, some of whom are quite similar to Mr. Treleaven. – http://monsterbrains.blogspot.com/ Hope it surprises you, though you’ve probably already seen it.

Scott Treleavan’s work makes a change since I’ve not seen any other homoerotic art that’s informed by a contemporary occult sensibility like this; usually all you get is a kind of fuzzy mysticism.
And I do indeed know Monster Brains since they linked to my post about Jean-Marie Poumeyrol a couple of years ago. Some fascinating work they turn up there.
