Book Reviews of The Art of Pelaez
Book Review: Perhaps the Premier Gallery Girls Artist
Summary: 5 Stars
Throughout the years and the many outstanding Gallery Girls collections released by SQP, there has been one artist who has always stood out from the pack, Spanish artist Joan Pelaez. It seems every time I review a new Gallery Girls Collection, I always note the Pelaez' pieces as my favorites. Now, SQP has collected these great pieces in the first collection dedicated to this phenomenal talent. Perhaps no current artist is able to capture the seductive qualities of his subjects the way Pelaez does. His women are simply mesmerizing to behold, enchanting you with just a glance.
This book runs the gamut of the Gallery Girls books and features vampires, mermaids, witches, pirates, jungle girls, and a liberal dose of lesbianism and bondage pieces. There's a biker vampire leering coldly at the reader, and another vamp snarling, fangs sharp as a razor as she hangs from the ceiling with her bats. The bondage pieces are playful yet very erotic and filled with gorgeous women in thigh high leather boots, whips and riding crops about to deliver a good spanking.
There's a great piece with three beauties nude in a hot tub sharing some red, ripe cherries, a lovely topless witch flying on her broom past a haunted house, and a fantastic nude Egyptian princess in full regalia. Just try to find a piece that you DON'T love! The depth and detail in Pelaez' work is what really attracts me. You can spend hours perusing the book and catching little things you might have missed at first glance. This is simply a must-have for fans of the Gallery Girls or any fan of erotic pin-up art.
