Von Victor

We want to turn you on to Brazil’s Alessandro Von Victor. Yeah, really, that kind of turned on. You see, Von Victor is an erotic-pop artist of the hot rod and tattoo school. The picture above is the type of G-rated work that gets his name out into the mainstream, but if you head to his site you’ll also find saucy photo-realistic, illustrations of girls that fit right in with DVDs under your bed. As a female, I find his art fun and tongue in cheek (hardly exploitative, as it might seem at first glance), and especially with the recent death of Bettie Page, it seems all the more appropriate to be writing about Von Victor. Not only can he do pin-ups, this Sao Paulo artist’s reach goes all the way to anime and manga, an interest he developed at a young age a. Bookmark this one for when you’re not at work.
