UTOPIA - Principles of Lust

Published:

Description

This illustration you have before your eyes is quite exclusive (with as much emphasis on that as possible); despite having taken me a lot to get it off of my chest, this is the only image (along with a very important sequence in the novel itself ;)) of UTOPIA to bear colours.
Why is that? Well, the whole novel (and the story itself) is influenced by the Moon and its ominous presence in the lives of The Empress and The Guardian. Under her light, everything is gray, with hints of colour as the levels change.
Thus, a daylight scene is most significant and marks certain very important events, such as the one you're witnessing: the most intimate moment that will unleash the whole weight of fate upon these two characters later...

Also, and on a more professional/personal level, I don't often draw explicit sexually themed scenes (I tip-toe around the subject a lot, that's clear), which is strange, because I grew up with european comics and sex is a given in them (as opposed to the mainstream US comics) and has always been something I'm not ashamed of talking about or even drawing.
So, I hope I've done it tastefully and that you enjoy this rare piece, but VERY significant, both regarding my portfolio and UTOPIA.

Until soon!

Nic.-
