Room 2D

More orphaned artwork, this time from the incomparable Paula Meadows. Here are the beautifully illustrated covers from the first four editions of Fessée magazine. Issue 1: A self-portrait of Paula reading this very issue including the cover art (an example of the Droste effect). She is wearing sexy underwear (views on knickers over suspender straps or vice versa anyone? — Paula looks like the former, which I guess is more practical for various reasons) and a cane is tucked discreetly behind her on the window sill. A picture of a contented spanko and proud editor. Issue 2: What’s going on here? Are they lovingly holding hands in front of their rack of punishment implements, with a look of aroused anticipation on her face. Or is she trying to stop him taking an implement from the rack with a look of fearful anticipation on her face. His closed eyes seem to indicate the former. Issue 3: Nice to see an admirer of fine art… Some ...

From Blushes 63. If, like me, you were hoping for pink knickers to be featured in the pictures you will be sadly disappointed. Nice story though. It is an archetypal English scene: a country land bordered by leafy hedges, the verges between these and the lane itself burgeoning with the dense vegetation of high summer: ripening lush grass and cow parsley, not to mention vigorous specimens of nettles, all almost head-high to a man.

Not a lot of that about nowadays; it’s mostly all chemicals now. And not a lot of this either — as round the corner comes a very pretty girl on a bike. With long bare legs that seem to go on and on. The rustic toiler immediately stops work to ensure he will miss nothing of her approach, lose no detail of the rhythmically flexing limbs. Just look… As she approaches...

A Thursday special post — an interview with Sophie Fennington, naturally. From Janus 60. Once again, when shooting  CP Tease  ( Janus 53, 54 ) we based the character of the chastisee very closely on that of the young lady who played the part. In casting our photo fantasies we seek not to impose an invented persona on the blank canvas of a model, but instead whenever possible to base the story on elements we discern in the model herself. Which is why taking part in a  Janus  photo session has often been a revelation for the girls involved. To all intents and purposes, the truth of the model who portrayed Sophie Fennington in  CP Tease  is one she shares with her character. The young man who appeared with her as her husband, Christian Fennington, is her real-life husband and the couple are dedicated practitioners of the CP art. The one big difference between Sophie and the real girl is that the latter ...
