Why?
Because it’s more fun that way. Also, porn is what gets commissioned 99.999% of the time. It’s what people want. As my mother used to say, “Sex sells.”
There was a time in my life that this would have upset me. I would have been offended and felt that my artistic integrity was being besmirched. Now I understand differently. For me (I know better than to speak for anyone else, let along another artist on such sensitive subjects) art is about making people happy. A satisfied customer gives me the warm fuzzies. To that end, porn or any other subject matter is simply a means.
To be honest, making art for money seems more pure to me than any other way I’ve earned it. It seems more to be a matter of getting paid for things I would naturally do, rather than changing my way of living in order to survive. Integrity is being true to you, and this is true to me. Hopefully someday I’ll be able to make a real and permanent go at having this be the only thing I do.
