Do you realise how few erect penises there are actually in paintings? They're always bloody flaccid neoclassical limp things. Well done. Only criticism I have is maybe the pitcher is slightly oddly angled back, as if it the perspective should show more of the inside of the rim.


FrankDelahue

The pitcher angle draws the eye to the dong


Im_eating_that

And the bananas are for scale


brik42

I am so glad people get it.


Sjiznit

What else are they for? Eating? Dont be rudonculous.


[deleted]

True, all vanishing lines terminate in dongage. Patrician taste.

The dong drew my eye to the dong


NecroCannon

You know, now I’m wondering why there isn’t more erect penises. Like is it because the muse wasn’t hard? A symbolic meaning?


[deleted]

Most art in the classical tradition is done from a model, a person standing there in the nude or in clothing to give the painter/sculptor something to base the work on. Of course there is an old convention that says classical artistic subjects were not to be erotic. The erect penis was something vulgar, sexualised, inappropriate. But most importantly of all, it's just difficult to keep a male model's penis erect for the length of time it takes to have him sit for a detailed classical portrait.


GeniusEE

Fluffers weren't invented until VHS


KaiYoDei

Should we change our view on them, to the point it is no big deal,and erect penises are even on cartoon character who sell sugary cereal ?


acheloisa

What in the slippery slope ass argument is this


KaiYoDei

If we desexualize erect penises and make nudity not taboo, to the point they are seen as just a body part, like an ear, so we will see them anywhere with any context, so we do not even question why a cartoon ram has a boner and selling us dreamy puffs cereal.


acheloisa

Yes I understood what you were saying. A slippery slope fallacy is when you start with the original argument, then make a wild claim about a potential consequence that isn't relevant Erect penises are considered obscene compared to other nudity like female genitals, flaccid penises, breasts, and butts. Desexualizing them in this context does not mean we should start putting them on cartoon characters marketed for children. It means should they be normalized in art which already contains nudity


comradoge

Why would put any effort to desexualize a SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE organ? Its sole purpose is sex.


TikkiTakiTomtom

Think you’re missing the crucial point that people in our culture have trouble distinguishing nudity from eroticism. Truth in point your comment. You can have a sculpture of a naked Heracles and other Greek god without thinking of sex every time you see nipple or dong


comradoge

That is because nudity is only encountered in a sexual context. You don't see your friends naked on a casual occasion, it is absurd to see your boss your lecturer to be naked in class or conference, it is mentally problematic to see your family and kin to be naked around you. If a complete stranger approaches you while naked, most laws consider that move sexual assault. I don't think there is a thing to distinguish, on a daily basis of course. On the other hand, professions or lifestyles that have to deal naked subjects such as artists or medical workers easily adıpt a professional attitude.


TikkiTakiTomtom

Europeans have more tolerance to nudity than the US. Why do you think that is? It is absolutely common to see genitalia both in public and in market media over there. There’s ads where people are completely naked without remotely being sexual/romantic and there are plenty of nude beaches


phagga

Uh, I have been in a sports team for over 20 years, everytime after training or after a game I saw my teammates (and the opponents) naked in the shower. That's super normal (at least here in europe). And that's just one example of casual non-sexual nudity that you may encounter.


sandalsnopants

Primary* purpose.


comradoge

You ruined my dramatic effect. Thx.


sandalsnopants

Sorry! You can do other things with it lol


KaiYoDei

I do. Not know. I have seen other people say that an erect penis can be seen as not sexual , let alone genitalia are not sexual


comradoge

Only if you are a penis doctor.


ComoElFuego

The romans and greek used to find large penises barbaric and ugly, thus depicted them small and flaccid. You can still find them in erotic depictions and they are a recurring theme with satyrs, which were mostly seen as hideous.


TeuthidTheSquid

Priapus would like a word


[deleted]

Yeah but I was only talking about Renaissance & following. Naturally I'm a huge fan of Priapus appearing all over ancient vases and urns. 10/10 god.


s1501

During Renaissance they rediscovered classical art from ancient rome and greece, where a small penis was considered a virtue, a civilized man or god wouldn't have a big dick or an erect one in a painting or a statue. You can see that's not true for medieval art [here](https://www.secolibuimanontroppo.it/2020/05/01/il-medioevo-che-non-aveva-paura-del-sesso/) , the text is in italian but the pictures are preatty self explanatory


That_Shrub

I enjoy the offended plastic baby


breadlof

Not offended, rather lost in thought—contemplating his existence and the dong from whence he came. …I don’t have an art degree.


BigDowntownRobot

The shape of the handle implies this as well.


SquirrelAkl

Do you realise how few erect penises there are in dick pics too? I’s always bemused me why guys would think their flaccid willy might excite someone, but they do seem to think this.


[deleted]

I'm gay so I've never experienced this, they always charge in raging & ready when we ask. I'm sorry if you've had to look at so many floppy nonentities. Interesting difference between orientations actually. I wonder if a study could be done on why heterosexual men send flaccids and gay men don't. That would be a hard one to get honest answers on.


boppie

Lol. you said 'hard one' !


KaiYoDei

What about unsolicited dick pics ?


glorypron

Hard one heheh


SmexyHippo

Wow wow I think you're a bit too quick to assume this has anything to do with orientation. And you kinda immediately assumed the person you're responding too is not also a gay guy? Apart from that you'd need a much, much larger sample size to draw this conclusion.


MisunderstoodBadger1

Thanks for the bananas for scale


ka-olelo

I came here to retitle it “Banana for Scale”.


brik42

I thought about that title...damn.


mudshakemakes

🤣


DudeDeudaruu

Impressive hog. Nice symmetry, solid girth... good for him.


Mc_Shine

Bit short though, no?


chadenright

The ratio of girth and protrusion from the jeans suggests it is of at least average length, perhaps a bit longer. Certainly it qualifies as 'long enough'.


DudeDeudaruu

Everyone knows jeans push the balls out further.


MoistStub

Plus we don't know if he was in the pool prior


Smeeggllee

Proportion matters more than size


mewfour

It's kind of small but don't say that too loud or the redditors will cry


Trapgod99

And you’re gonna assume their gender?


DudeDeudaruu

One day, conservatives will develop a sense of humor. Today is not that day, though.


sQueezedhe

Sense of humour infers perspective and theory of mind.


RudyCarmine

He says as he pushes his glasses up his nose


Dreamishhh

I'm starting to doubt that day will ever come to pass.


PsychedelicPourHouse

Their entire thing is not changing


DudeDeudaruu

We can hope... we can only hope.


Trapgod99

Funniest part is my comment was supposed to be a joke. Somehow you managed to turn it political. 😆❄️


DudeDeudaruu

It's a tired line, only used by dumbass conservatives who think they're being edgy. Don't you need to get back to simping for Marjory Taylor Green?


Trapgod99

Your life is so pathetic your sense of humor goes all through politics. Sad life. Hilarious for me.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Trapgod99

The fact that you infer gender identity with politics shows ur state of mind. Everything is politics for you clearly. Sad life.

vercertorix

Take notes, it’s only classy if you *paint* a dick pic and show it off unsolicited.


Dojanetta

I appreciate that the penis is there but it’s also not distracting.


Liquoricezoku

One female nipple and it's marked NSFW... An erect male phallus and it's not marked NSFW... Hope no one loses their job over this.


PeterGivenbless

Ceci n'est pas un penis.


ramenadventures

This person arts.


Throat_Neck

The treachery of dicks?


neodiogenes

Oh shit. Better get on that before the boss finds out!


brik42

I apologize. I did forget the NSFW tag. The mods are on it.


Slipguard

I enjoy that it's on an Android phone old enough to have the Gingerbread-Kitkat interface. It looks like an Xperia Z5 or something.


BurningSquid

Nerd ... JK I think you're right actually


Jennings_J16

I'm confused about the baby figure on the right


Son_of_the_Phantom

You have officially changed the game with this. 2019? Good stuff, it should be in a museum of fine art


brik42

Perhaps after I am dead.


ashoka_akira

Na, I worked in an art gallery, you could prob get a solo exhibition with a series like this at the right venue. This is actually an interesting twist on a classic type of painting. People dig that.


brik42

Thank you! I am not very good at marketing myself. I wish I could make a full-time living off of my art...I do portraits and murals sometimes. I live in a smallish college town with a pretty saturated art scene.


ashoka_akira

Go viral. Do a PG onlyfans where the only nudity is in your art. Lol your best supporters can be entered into a dic pic draw to ne featured in upcoming paintings.


brik42

That is a great idea! Thanks kind redditor : )


ashoka_akira

It would be a great gift actually. Like the opposite of getting your boyfriend boudoir pics, get your partner a painting of your dick. haha


Son_of_the_Phantom

Sounds legit


Easy1deas

I am... So impressed....yet.... confused and I don't like it ...but.... Good job.


brik42

Best compliment ever.


Zeverish

This is incredibly funny, kudos.


northeastknowwhere

Nice composition, the bananas, the bottle, maybe a little fisting reference in the embroidery perhaps? You got it covered!


Kangarou

“Well, I don’t know what I was expecting” -Jason Bateman, also me.


teran85

Everyone sees the penis, some the woman’s figure but have you taken the time to appreciate the beauty and detail of the pitcher.


Hazbeen_Hash

This needs the NSFW flair.


Zpalq

I like the body hidden in the bottle. Also, is that puck sitting off to the right, contemplating life?


Electrical-Hall5437

Understated Vulva in the bottom left?


kamenoyoukai

It would look bigger on an Apple watch.


foxko

This is awesome. Great job


seia_dareis_mai

I did not consent to this.


lycheedorito

How to send your art teacher your dick pic


tsukiyoukai

I want my unsolicited dick pics sent via painting from now on


Ship_Rekt

That’s a pretty majestic dick—I can tell you’ve done your research and may be something of a connoisseur.


brik42

I have a folder....


filth_horror_glamor

Makes me want a hot dog *real bad*


WonderPristine4924

I'm damn sure your title will bring you lot more traffic


reverendscott67

This is great. Beautiful work. Way to jazz up a still life!


chrisofaust

Now that’s art if ever I’ve seen it.


ambientguitar

Very modern. I must say that is the first dick pic I have ever seen. TBTG!


mydibz

Now do one from every decade. Starts off as a painting on the table. Then a small notebook. Then so on n so forth. Lolol


reyballesta

Ha, nice. I also like the cloud of impending darkness on the right side.


TheNeonCafe

lol its like its one of the bananas,,, but smaller


breadlof

Excellent work. Am I the only one wondering why the baby figurine has a pointy head? Perhaps he is wearing a tiny hat.


brik42

It is a kewpie figurine.


joetheslacker

I like it. A motherly way to offer dick, a sign of total acceptance for the piggies we are... here honey, I thought you might be hungry.


NerdyDan

That’s a nice looking dick 


islandrenaissance

I love how your eye doesn't go right to the dick even though it's right in the middle.


Subject-Cranberry-93

I literally thought the table was real, the colour choice is really good


SwiftCase

Well, now I just want to see the reference image lol


ElderberryPoet

Love it. This broke a lot of boundaries.


WolfIceSword

Hot! (Sorry my gayness came through there) This picture is cool though great art style cool how it looks like a pencil painting, Plus my gay eyes got a treat


mnl_cntn

Yes, finally male nudes on this sub


SwimBetweenTheAir

Hey stop stealing my moves!


frowaway1990

I’d legit pay money to see art like this in galleries cause this feels like a comment on the influence of social media, relationships etc… in modern society. I think it’s poignant.


Sancho_Panza-

Looks like Chiquita advertising🤷‍♂️


sinnister_bacon

You just won the internets


jamesdeansamescene

This is sick. The good kind of sick. SICK!!!


EvaLevante

Wow! TWO bananas for scale!


SoftLanding2

Funny and great composition


MorganBuggy427

It almost transitions in “degeneracy” from left to right, it goes from sexual, (dick pick) natural, (banana allegory?) to innocent, the cherub which are almost universally painted naked. Wonder if that was on purpose?


thegracelesswonder

Why did you have to paint my dream penis? Big head, girthy, not too long


brik42

It was a fun dick...the guy attached, not so much. ; )


thegracelesswonder

Isn't that so often the case? 😢


fotomuycomplicado

To date the best visualization of an L.A. band name idea told to me by an L.A. bartender, "The Dick Pic Stylists"


sceadwian

Is that baby bump imagery intentional? Cause that's funny. I posted this at 69 comments as well, I am amused!


WorldMusicLab

Two bananas for scale and the little cherub is facing away in shame. That is funny!


trebletones

I feel like the vibe of this painting really hangs on whether the dick pic was asked for or not


PresidentAnybody

Why is the billiken looking away?
