One doesn't have to be an expert to see that there are some parallels between the work of Tom of Finland and Jim French of Colt Studio. I did some research, and although their work has been exhibited together and the Tom of Finland Foundation's website effusively praises French, I haven't been able to find any evidence they ever collaborated or even met. That won't stop me, however, from presenting a series showing some similar work. Drawings by Tom and photos by Jim.
I spent many happy hours in my youth drooling,and doing other things, to Tom's drawings.
