Alberto Vargas

i was introduced to Alberto Vargas' art work by a really nice co-worker. well now she is my retarded friend...and i say that with much love. i could get another partner in crime but this retard makes it fun. ha ha ha. anyhow i think he (alberto vargas) is really good. he painted and air brushed. details cant be noted by the little pictures that I post.....too bad all his subjects were women! lol. Their time was the WW2 era - the original American pinups. I think the paintings are just beautifully made. and the details are stunningjust as stunning are the extreme differences in poses that he choose...as you can see..... i guess if you have to paint for money then you got no choice in subject! (and playboy hired him plenty). i don't blame him. Enjoy.

oh yeah by the way I tried an aphrodisiac recipe. Cantaloupe, Chocolate, and Ylang Ylang. Didn't work this time. Sigh. He fell asleep instead. Of course he doesn't know what I am doing. I want to get a true reaction. I guess this will be our secret. ....Ylang Ylang oil is great though. Rub on your feet and you will feel a difference!!! You can find it in aromatherapy stuff.
