Erotic artwork

Hey everybody!

This is my first thread! be gentle with me :)
I know ive probably posted it in the wrong forum but this seemed the most appropriate!

Right, where to start?! me and my OH are buying a house together next year and are looking for furniture and stuff. I am a great believer of having artwork, as we both are sort or artsy ourselves, well we have a levels aha anyhu, ive been trying to find some 'tasteful' erotic artwork, ive looked on ebay but all there is really is naked photos of girls. dont really want to give the impression of a 15year old lads bedroom tbh. does anybody know anywhere in the uk, that we could possibly get some from? preferably inexpensive. id have a go at creating my own but its having the time.

something like this:

we also like the bronze and pewter sculpters of intwined lovers and such.

we want it to show more 'love' than 'sex' if you get me?!

Try novica.com. It is a far trade company. Not erotic per se but very tastefully done.

You've got Tom Wesselman but I think you're talking hundreds of thousands. Don't know of any others, have a look at some online art galleries like this you might find something there.

Good links - John Tisbury's work is amazingly beautiful, and galleries online has some great art, such as Julie ann Bull http://www.galleries-online.co.uk/00,gallery,5121,77,30982,00.htm I must get back into nude drawing again
