Anticipation

This has been on several of the femdom related tumblr sites (I found it here), but I just had to repost it. As an image, it’s all about their facial expressions. Both have a degree of anticipation, but where his is a look of nervous anticipation, she has a confident knowing look. A happy anticipation of the pain and pleasure to come.

Look of anticipation

Clothespin Torment

Of all the ways to remove clothespins from sensitive parts of the body, having them gently tugged off by a mistresses mouth has got to rank among the sexiest. There are definitely nastier alternatives. I can personally attest that having them kicked off is an attention grabber. Particularly when that last stubborn one really doesn’t want to come free…

Clothespin TormentI think I found this via tumblr, but it’s obviously originally from the always excellent men in pain.

Steelwerks Chastity Device

While writing my earlier post on chastity and orgasm denial I got distracted for a fairly length period browsing the steelwerks site. They make some of the most interesting and creative chastity devices I’ve seen.

This particular one, while impressing me with both the design and the beautiful engineering, makes me shiver a little. Note the spiked screws that penetrate through the thick surrounding bands, and the long curved prince’s wand in the centre. According to their blog post it’s a 24×7 device, not just for playtime. If someone is really walking around with their penis trapped in this for extended periods, then I can only salute their dedication and marvel at their level of masochism.

Contrasts

Often I find the best images are the ones that use fetish elements sparingly. Like a lot of things in life, it’s the relative change rather than the absolute value that’s important. This image for example has a beautifully composed lady, wearing a light summer dress, sitting in what looks like a normal room, while sporting a giant veiny black strap-on. That’s so much more erotic in my mind that more usual leather, buckles and boots.

Strapon With SundressFound on piotrushka’s tumblr site.

Bruised Slave

This struck me as an unusual image. When body marks are shown in femdom artwork (or in any BDSM artwork for that matter), it’s usually the stereotypical cane or whip stripes. It’s rare to see actual bruising or more general signs of physical harm. The contrast in this case between the composed elegance of the mistress and the battered appearance of the slave is quite beautiful.

In terms of the backstory here I’ve no idea what the original artist intended. But with the careful pose and the photographic studio style backdrop, it comes across as a formal portrait session. Perhaps she’s preparing the shot for her annual Christmas card?

Formal mistress and bruised slaveI’ve no idea who the artist is. It looks like something from renderotica and has some similarity to xrenderer, but I don’t think it’s quite his style. It’s an amazing piece of work, so if you do know the artist then please drop me a line.

Happy Faces

After the oddness of this post, I thought some more straightforward artistic Japanese femdom might be in order.

I love this image for the expressions on their faces. She has a wonderful smug look, and is clearly enjoying every moment of his torment. In contrast he’s balanced between pleasure and pain, enjoying the momentary pleasure of her foot, but anticipating the worst…..

Dirty Work

There’s a fairly unique dynamic invoked by a mistress pulling on a pair of black leather gloves. It’s very different to the mood created by surgical gloves. The tougher, more workmanlike black leather brings to mind nefarious behavior. The need to avoid leaving fingerprints. That it might get messy and she doesn’t want blood on her hands. And that if a physical beating is required, some hand protection would be useful.

Leaving femdom aside for a moment, they make me think of this sequence in the first Dirty Harry movie. Whoever shot that scene knew something about this power dynamic.

I believe I found this on usenet. It’s obviously from a cruella set based on the logo, but I think it’s a very old shot.

Grigbertz

This is an image taken from the Grigbertz fetish gallery. There’s a whole host of fun images there, and it’s well worth checking out, although there’s clearly a lot of context and subtext around the characters and scenarios that I’m just missing. But regardless of the who/what/why, this image really caught my eye as a very sexy femdom (plus mouse!) scene.

It’s titled ‘In the basement’ and is from this Grigbertz gallery.
