 The images on these pages are scans of original watercolor and pastel studies of male nudes. I have been perfecting my technique for 20 years, utilizing a loose, expressive style and expanded use of color. This site represents my recent work with "bears" as the subject matter.
Some of these pieces originated from sessions with live models at drawing groups I attend in San Francisco. Others were inspired by photographs. The original drawings are on acid-free archival paper. All drawings are matted to fit standard-sized frames. Signed and matted prints are also available. They are printed on archival paper using light-fast photo quality inks. Framing is available at extra cost.
If you are interested in purchasing any of these studies, email me at tompkins@pobox.com. Please specify which drawing you are interested in by its ID number. Please refer to the purchase info page for more details. I am available for doing commissioned drawings. If you have a particular photograph you'd like to have a drawing of, please contact me and let's discuss it. They make great gifts! You may also view our other Web sites:
Also, my partner Dwight and I have been featured in this quarter's issue of 'Versimilitude', an on-line ezine dedicated to issues in the gay bear community - www.bearhistory.com
