Since first discovering his work last year, I have featured Mark-Eugene Garcia in a series of posts highlighting his work as a writer, an actor and of course, as a model. Images of great looking men, especially when they're naked often stimulate various reactions the viewer. Some the reaction is to inspire.
Since starting FH, I have always been interested in nude modeling beyond just photos, but also modeling for art classes, sculptures and illustrations. It has also been fascinating to learn how some images, not originally taken for an art piece, sometimes lead to one. I have featured many artists over the years who find the inspiration for their art from the male form, and more specifically, image of the male form.

Although Mark has always wanted to pose naked for an artist, these drawings were inspired from images. Mark has been re-created by several artists including Kimmo Matias, Night Scratch and Marco Giles. Mark has also inspired another artist, a more enigmatic one, who is choosing to remain anonymous. The mystery artist is a friend of Mark's who has always been intrigued with drawing erotic nudes.
The mysterious artist confessed their goal one night over wine, but thus far hasn't told anyone. Most of their friends think of the artist as conservative, even a bit prudish, so their erotic drawings of their naked friend, not to mention his erection, might be a bit more than some can handle.

As you have learned by now, Mark has no problem going full frontal, and since his first appearance on FH, has become even more comfortable with showing it all, and showing it up. In fact, Mark recently finished shooting a part in an upcoming film, Strapped For Danger, and yes, he goes so full frontal, so keep your eyes out for it's release!
