Welcome New Toxic Goddess Rockelle to the Pantheon!

Robert has been the lucky photographer to debut most of the Goddesses so it’s my distinct pleasure to present the debut set from Rockelle.  I think she brings something very unique to the troupe and I think you’ll agree after you see this set and the next few we have lined up for you.

This particular set is a good example of the location dictating my decisions.  Everything about this room was perfect without changing a thing.  That blue wall was spectacular and while it’s in my nature to seek the darkness I decided to let the light shine through here.  In fact, I probably lit this more than any other set I’ve ever done, going as far as pumping the light directly into the lens.

I think this shiny shoot shows off Rockelle in the best of ways.  Her glam girl next door look shines through.

Please take a look at the set and welcome Rockelle to Toxic Goddess in the comments below!

Basically this is just a girl with a sword routine, but there’s a lot more that I like about this set.

Graphically-speaking, this set has a unique look.  The combination of the red light on Eclipse and the stark white background work really well together.  I always lean towards latex or leather outfits, but I really liked the way Eclipse pulled this look off.  I think she looks like someone from the Matrix or one of the club patrons in a Blade movie.  And that sword makes the most interesting light patterns on her body.  That was unexpected… but sometimes the unexpected things are the best.

One photo from this set has made the trip to the Netherlands for my “Siberia” show, plus the show in Oklahoma City at “Tribal Fire” and this year’s “Fetish Valentine 2″ show in Allentown Pennsylvania.

Toxic Goddess Models and Photographer in Hong Kong Group Exhibition

June 26th, 2010 | By Dirk Hooper

HONG KONG, CHINA, June 22, 2010 – Award-winning fantasy photographer Dirk Hooper will have ten photos on display June 27th

during the “Accumulate” international art exhibition in Hong Kong, China.  Hooper’s work will join dozens of other international artists at the grand opening of “That Gallery”.  The organizers of the art show describe “Accumulate” as an opportunity to bring together artists from around the word and to exhibit the combined imagination of these artists by showcasing multiple works in a confined space.

Hooper is excited to have work in Hong Kong.  “I’ve wanted to get a foothold in Asia for a while now and it’s hard to beat an exhibition in Hong Kong.  My dream is to get a show in Tokyo, but I’m thrilled with this first step,” Hooper said.  Known primarily for fetish photography, “Accumulate” presents a softer side of Hooper’s work.  “This is not an erotic art show, so I focused more on fantasy and glamour style portraits.  The style is the same, but this work is not as provocative as most of my shows lately,” Hooper explained.

Danger Darling and Scott Van Eck both do work as makeup artists in the ten photos Hooper has in the “Accumulate” exhibition.  The models represented in Hooper’s photos are:

  • Toxic Goddess Aello
  • Toxic Goddess Dame Lebeau
  • Toxic Goddess Eclipse
  • Toxic Goddess Loki
  • Toxic Goddess Oshun
  • Toxic Goddess Rockelle
  • Toxic Goddess Selkie
  • Jade
  • Mistress Kitty
  • Princess Zoe

“Accumulate” will open on Sunday, June 27th at 3:00 p. m. in Hong Kong, China.  “That Gallery” is located at Unit F Superluck Inds Centre, 45-53 Sha Tsui Rd.  Refreshments will be provided.

This is the third bonus fetish set with Toxic Goddess Selkie.

I hope you’ve enjoyed these short fetish and bondage sets with Toxic Goddess Selkie and Toxic Goddess Dame Lebeau as much I enjoyed taking them.  This set was just worked this week and I’m very pleased with the results.  I can tell you that there’s at least three of these shots that I will be sending to art shows very soon.  It’s always a nice dilemma, when you can’t decide which one is your favorite!  Maybe you guys can help me decide…

This is the second bonus fetish set with Toxic Goddess Selkie.

It’s short because I was looking for something specific when I took the photos and I directed Selkie to move within a specific range.  She still managed to get a lot of variations (even more than I present here) in a very confined space though.  Another testament to how good she is!

By the way, that ball gag was incredibly irritating to Selkie, so this is the first and last ball gag shoot with her.

In this case, success comes in small packages.  The second photo in this set was in my solo show in Utrecht the Netherlands in 2009, plus the Tribal Fire solo show in Oklahoma City and more recently in the Fetish Valentine 2 group show in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

This is a bonus set that I have revisited and reworked.  There were a couple of things I wanted to play with on this set and I’m really glad that I worked on it again.

I think this captures the set much better than ever before.

If you’d like to see the original comments, you can easily find the other set by searching for “mermaid”.

This is the first part of three small fetish updates from me featuring Toxic Goddess Selkie.  I do a lot of short sets where I have a concept that I’m trying to capture to use in an art show.  This set was a simple bondage set with Shibari Master David M.

Selkie is fantastic as a bondage model because she brings such enthusiasm and flexibility to a set.  Even tied up she manages more creative poses than most models!

This set produced a piece that became one of my halftone canvas prints and travelled to the Dirty Show in Detroit Michigan.  It may also end up at an upcoming show in Allentown Pennsylvania.

Toxic Goddess Well Represented at “Biting the Apple”

March 25th, 2010 | By Dirk Hooper

This year, the IAO’s Biting the Apple Erotic Art Show will feature the models and photographers of Toxic Goddess in high fashion.  Toxic Goddess photographers Robert Henry and Dirk Hooper will both have pieces in the show and the Toxic Goddesses who will be on the wall (if not in the gallery itself) are Toxic Goddess Eclipse, Toxic Goddess Oshun, Toxic Goddess Dame Lebeau (in two pieces), Toxic Goddess Cravyn, Toxic Goddess Selkie and Toxic Goddess Loki!  Toxic Goddess makeup artist Danger Darling and Toxic Goddess airbrush artist Scott Van Eck has work in the show as well.

Information on the show is below.  Come out and hang with Toxic Goddess!

IAO’s 19th Annual Biting the Apple Erotic Art Show

Individual Artists of Oklahoma will present their 19th annual erotic art show and fetish ball entitled “Cirque Fantastique” on Friday, March 26, and Saturday, March 27, from 7pm to midnight, at IAO Gallery, 706 W. Sheridan in the Film Exchange District of Oklahoma City.

Over the course of the two nights, this year’s Biting the Apple, “Cirque Fantastique,” will quite literally be a circus of fantasies that aims to explore how our fantasies are reflected in popular culture through movies, literature, and even modern myth. By providing an approachable and safe atmosphere, IAO hopes guests will come together in celebration of our fantasies to gain insights into eroticism through a wide array of individual artwork.

Friday, March 26 is the event’s Opening Party. Oklahoma artists will exhibit their erotic art in a combined invited artist and juried art show. The evening will also include erotic poetry readings, a fashion show, film and video screenings and performance art; as well as juror’s and people’s choice awards given for art submissions and IAO’s first ever YouTube video competition.

Saturday, March 27 will be a celebration like no other with the event’s popular Fetish Ball. Attendees are invited to dress as personal taste, fashion, and personal fantasy dictate. Look for artist-made costumes and décor to fit the “Cirque Fantastique” theme.

Join our circus of fantasies with street performers, an erotic dance-off and live peep shows. Both nights will include a cash bar and complimentary food donated by a few of Oklahoma City’s most excellent restaurants.

Tickets are $15 for each night or $25 for both nights.

Toxic Goddess Aello in “Chisel” by photographer Dirk Hooper

Comments

This is an addendum to the “Tease and Deny” set that I offered last year.  Aello still had a mesh body-stocking on at the end of that shoot and this shoot began with her ripping that stocking off.  However, what we got when that body stocking came off was an amazing classic nude study, rendered in black and white.  In fact, if you look closely, you can still see the pattern of the stocking, which I think makes this set even more interesting.

I actually like this small set better than the original higher-concept shoot because of its simplicity and power.  I think Aello looks every bit the Goddess in this set… like she’s chiseled out of marble.
