Hey everybody!

This is my first thread! be gentle with me :)
I know ive probably posted it in the wrong forum but this seemed the most appropriate!

Right, where to start?! me and my OH are buying a house together next year and are looking for furniture and stuff. I am a great believer of having artwork, as we both are sort or artsy ourselves, well we have a levels aha anyhu, ive been trying to find some 'tasteful' erotic artwork, ive looked on ebay but all there is really is naked photos of girls. dont really want to give the impression of a 15year old lads bedroom tbh. does anybody know anywhere in the uk, that we could possibly get some from? preferably inexpensive. id have a go at creating my own but its having the time.

something like this:

http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=couple+paintings&hl=en&rls=com.microsoft:en-gb:IE-SearchBox&rlz=1I7DSGJ_enGB361GB361&biw=1093&bih=470&tbm=isch&tbnid=4c0A6vaNRdZTfM:&imgrefurl=http://nikhelbig.com/art-blog/category/paintings-of-lovers/&docid=69heDFWNvUhcEM&imgurl=http://nikhelbig.com/art-blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/3823212022_3b3e84175a_o1-150x140.jpg&w=150&h=140&ei=OAvUTvrBFYme8gPanbTKDw&zoom=1

we also like the bronze and pewter sculpters of intwined lovers and such.

we want it to show more 'love' than 'sex' if you get me?!

 Try novica.com. It is a far trade company. Not erotic per se but very tastefully done.

Ken Clarke is one of my favs. He's such a love! http://www.bodysculpture.uk.com/ . Have a look at The Guild of Erotic Artists, lots of great artists there. :) http://www.theguildoferoticartists.com/index.php?a=lm

There are some alright things in there.

Do you have any shops in your area that sell carvings and ornaments and that sort of thing? A "Hippy" shop perhaps? We have one where I live, just down the road and they stock all sorts of different things. From Organic potatoes to fine handmade jewellery. They also sell some small sculptures and wooden carvings that look great. My mother bought a couple of the more nudist ones ages ago, but they are so tasteful. There is one called "The lonely man" which is a wooden carving of a nude man huanched over himself.

Here is a picture of him.

Is this the sort of thing you are looking for?

Unfortunately I don't know where to get them from online. :-( I'd like some for myself! And I am no good at wood carving.

I have heard of people making homemade art. Subtle, of course. Bum prints with lashings of paint. Very easy to do. Black and white photographs of their own body parts (doesn't have to be naughty, even just feet or something) yet nobody would know it was their own photo unless they asked, or really know your body part well!!

The tinterweb is your friend. Some good quality printing paper and google images!

Also, Luis Royo. Ahhhhhh

You've got  Tom Wesselman but I think you're talking hundreds of thousands. Don't know of any others, have a look at some online art galleries like this you might find something there.

 Good links - John Tisbury's work is amazingly beautiful, and galleries online has some great art, such as Julie ann Bull http://www.galleries-online.co.uk/00,gallery,5121,77,30982,00.htm I must get back into nude drawing again
