I had watched Davin grow up … One day I ran into him and his mother at breakfast. Davin had grown up! He was now into body building and had developed into a strong and beautiful man. I asked his mother if Davin would model nude for me, to my surprise, She said ” I will have him there by noon”. He is very proud of his Lebanese heritage, so I surrounded him with Arabic weavings and color for this painting. Uninhibited and proud of his body, he became one of my favorite models. One day when his mother came by to pick him up, he pulled out the drawing I just completed of him frontally nude. I told him I did not think Mom would care for the drawing, but proudly he insisted. Yes, I am still friends with Mom.
MUSICIAN AT MIDNIGHT
When I first met Eduardo, he had been to massage school and eager to try new experiences. I very much enjoyed our conversations about bones and anatomy. Eduardo was very much into his music at that time and playing guitar with a local band. He would entertain me with his newest tunes and stories of his latest love adventures.
