THE TOON ART OF BOYWAY

Boyway aka B-way aka Steven Broadway

Boyway, (real name Steven Broadway) was one of a small group of painters who grouped together under the name “Pork” to draw and share their art.

You can see a few of his drawings at the link below, saved by the gallery before they completely fell apart due to rough handling.

Because Boyway, and most of the other artists who were part of “Pork” were typical starving artists at the time, much of their art was drawn on large (as in 6’ or so) Styrofoam boards that did not survive the frequent moves they had to make as they went from exhibit to exhibit in San Francisco to show and sell their art. To keep the soft Styrofoam board in one piece – more or less – they used duct tape judiciously as you can see in the example attached called, “Boyway_Two_Bound_into_One”attached, and “boyway0003a”.

Fortunately, a large part of their art was done on other more traditional media which has survived for posterity quite well. Boyway was very creative, drawing his men in a unique way that separated him from most others. His art is immediately identifiable by its distinctive personalities and masculine qualities.

Eventually, and most likely because he needs to earn a living, he continues his art in more commercially viable endeavors, primarily as a fashion artist.

NEW INFORMATION

Boyway is Asian-American and has been based in New York City for a decade. He studied art in the city and has worked here as an illustrator in several fields, including art, film, TV and--as seems fitting for a guy who draws with such flair--fashion. *Inches* is not the only outlet for Boyway's erotic art. At The Lure, a hot, artist-friendly leather bar in the meatpacking district of the city, Boyway regularly makes mural-size live drawings--visual art as performance art. Boyway also makes erotic murals for private clients, work that he loves because it draws work from him that he might not have been inspired to do on his own And yet, when Boyway works with a client hose fantasies are sympathetic with his own vision, when they even "vibrate with it," the results "can be magic."

Boyway says that his work in other fields performs a similar function: drawing him out of himself and his personal passions. Because of this, he loves his fashion work. It forces the artist to deal with women and glamour rather than the hard-muscled males of his erotic work. He also knows that a good fashion editor or art director can inspire him to do work he would never have done on his own. In fact, this interaction between Boyway's personal vision and the outside world, and among the different parts of Boyway's wide-ranging art and interests, became a running theme throughout our conversation with the artist.

Boyway told us that the different fields he works in (film, fashion, erotic art) feed each other. And that the different media he works in (painting, drawing, photography) inspire each other. And that even within a single medium (photography, say) the different subject matter (shooting botanicals or shooting male nudes) complement and fulfill each other. Sounds like a pretty healthy ecosystem. And it makes Boyway the perfect chronicler of the choicest specimens of manhood from the bubbling hot melting pot that Boyway wades through every day, with consummate skill, in the streets and on the subway trains of New York City.

You can see samples of Boyway's art and get in contact with the artist at his hot Web site: His website no longer exists. Boyway.com is a site available to purchase.

BUTCH BUFFET

Artist's statement: Celebrating the red-hot appeal of certain men in New York City through drawings and paintings is an ongoing passion for me.

It's impossible to ignore the spectacular good looks of these men--dark, hairy, their muscles packed with more than the legal limit of testosterone, every macho detail exaggerate to dangerous perfection. Laborers, servicemen, cops, punks, thugs ... or men just want to look like them, act like them ... maybe even worship them.

Tattooed, snarling, roaming in wolf-packs, checking out the girls ... or are they?! Things are often not what they seem!

This breed takes pride in strutting its maleness. These guys fire up everyone who notices them. Narcissistic exhibitionists? Maybe. But who can blame them? They are meant to make your mouth water ... and if you're lucky, they can make an erotic dream cum true.

THAT CAN'T BE REAL!
