A Look at Our Fourth Issue and Carrie Leigh

Channon Finley by Carrie Leigh

From Summer 2008....the cover of the 4th issue of Carrie Leigh's NUDE magazine...

It is really amazing to watch as "Empires" are crumbling on the magazine rack, one magazine that wanted to be different, wanted to be classy, and wanted to be in and of itself, a piece of art, grow like Carrie Leigh's NUDE has.

And we're still growing in Fall 2010 with an exciting new issue to be announced soon!

Another look at Franchesco!

One of the most amazing things I have been able to do with my association with Carrie Leigh, and NUDE magazine, is introduce to them the idea that within an industry such as "comic books", are pearls of talent that can be appreciated beyond their field. So I began introducing Carrie to different illustrators and comic book artists. For the Spring 2009 issue, Carrie chose one. (Just happened to be one of my favorites).

Franchesco!

Franchesco! himself has told me of the great response he has gotten from his appearance in the magazine. I think it is an amazing step in exposing some of the great talents that exist in what many consider to be a "low brow" art form, having had him in the magazine. Europeans, especially the french, say that Comic books and Jazz are the only truely American art forms.

Franchesco! has recently posted on his Deviantart page "Precious Pearls". I thought it would be nice to show here since he is now a published NUDE Magazine artist.

See more of the work of Franchesco! on his website and his deviantart page.

Enjoy!

PS.. Carrie has let me know that for the Winter 2009 NUDE Magazine online price, is going to stay at the low presale prices. Take advantage and save some money and order yours online today

PSS... If you were here looking for my (Joel's) latest work, it is on my drawing a day blog.

Tick..tock..tick..tock..

Time is running out for pre-ordering the Winter 2010 issue of Carrie Leigh's NUDE. I have just seen the new issue. (I get to see it digitally because I put up the previews on the website), and it is another beautiful publication.

The previews went up today on the "issues" page. Click on the cover to see the preview. If it does not take you there right away, you may have to refresh your browser.

Pre-orders end this coming Sunday. I can't tell you how many time I have friends calling me asking to see if I can get them a copy of the magazine because they got to the stands too late and they were sold out. I don't have them other than what I may buy myself when the come out, so I tell them they better pre-order, or better yet, subscribe and really save some money.

Getting ready for Winter 2010 Issue

I am a bit excited today. I have been asked by Carrie Leigh today if my little blog here can be an official source for new information for NUDE Magazine. Figured as I was kinda doing it anyway, (when I could), make it official. I am just going to have to find more time to keep the updates going. I do have another blog going specifically for my new art in a Drawing a day challenge I am doing with a bunch of artists on Facebook. Here is a link to that: JoelAdams-ADrawingADay

Now... The Winter 2010 issue.

I have not yet seen the interiors of this issue, but I do have the Cover and presale information!

The cover.. Wow! Carrie Leigh has done it again. I am so in love with this cover. The models name is Merrique, and she is beautiful. I can't wait to see the rest. I think from the cover alone, this issue is going to jump off the shelves, then that isn't saying much since every issue of NUDE from the beginning has sold out in the stores, and pretty much online.

Don't miss this issue when is does come out. Carrie Leigh's NUDE is offing great pre-sale deals on the magazine. If you are in the United States, you can get NUDE delivered to your home for only $9.95. That $3 less that the news stand price and it comes to you! Outside the US has discounted prices for the pre-sale as well. Go here for more information: PRE-SALES

The issue will be out mid to late February. I will post more when I have more. Enjoy!

Fall 2009 NUDE and an Adams Family team-up!

Hopefully on stands around November 15, will be the New Fall 2009 issue of NUDE. This issue will not have an individual cover model feature, but a retrospective of all the past cover models, shot by publisher/photographer, Carrie Leigh.

One of the winners of Carrie Leigh's NUDE Magazine's 2nd annual photo contest, John Tisbury, is also featured in this issue. (Photographers, don't forget to enter the 3rd Annual Carrie Leigh's NUDE Magazine photography contest)

A feature I am waiting to see is Veronika Kotlajic. The article is called "The Accidental Muse", and she has and amazing book called "The Muse". All appropriate titles to describe Veronika. I cannot think of another living model who has inspired more artists and photographers today. The only thing I think this feature will not include, is the inspired works of illustrators of Veronika, so I am going to recommend check out her book as well, "The MUSE"

Lots of other great work by great photographers and artists will also pack this issue. Even me! Don't miss it.. You can pre order this issue and (in the USA) get the issue to your door for $9.95.. That is two dollars cheaper than news stand and includes shipping.... Get them before they sell out.. and they do that.. sell out.

Adams Family Team up!

A week ago, my father, Neal Adams, came out to Los Angeles on a business trip and to visit. While visiting, my father went though some of the many unfinished drawings I had strewn all over the place. He pick one out and asked if he could ink it. To those who do not know who Neal is, he is consideder a legend in the comic book industry. One of the best. The whole father thing aside, as a bit of a comic book nerd myself, how cool is it to have Neal Adams in a piece of mine? So ofcourse I said yes. Well, one thing led to another and he inked four really nice pieces. My original intent was to sell these pieces, but I am still spending lots of time staring at them. Maybe when it has worn off I will make them available.

Enjoy

CL NUDE's Summer 2009 edition

Wow.. I am so far behind.

Carrie Leigh's NUDE at Long Beach Comic Con (LBCC)

I was at the Long Beach Comic Con, Oct 2-4, and amongst my other work, I brought along My work from, and copies of NUDE Magazine. I wasn't sure what to expect from a comic book crowd having them there, but they got a lot of positive attention and even interest from artists and photographers at the show about how to submit. I think I will continue to bring them with me to shows. I am sure my stash of magazines wont last, but I still have the art I do for it and like it. I can't wait til the next LBCC

I think I may blush!

Model and current Miss MyspaceUSA, Ashlee Ricci has not only just recently listed, having modeled for me for a piece of art that appeared in NUDE, as one of her top ten modeling experiences, but listed me as #1 on the list. Above Playboy, Myspace, and working with a lot of amazing photographers. See her interview here.

Ok... New issue comic soon.. I will try to be on the ball this time.. I have a nice piece in the new one.. Til then!

The Return of.. Sydney <3<3<3

Shipping April 15 is the Spring 2009 issue of Carrie Leigh's NUDE Magazine. I am fortunate enough to have seen the files of the issue before it went off to press and all I can say is, there doesn't appear to be any slowing down of the quality or content over there.

The issue once again is jam-packed with amazing art and photography. Contributors include: Carrie Leigh, Darren Phillips, Gabriele Rigon, Dan West, Michael Sui, David Lebeck, Tome Lane, Chip Willis, Antoine De Villiers, Deborah Anderson, Franchesco!, Gary Mitchell, Lloyd Rosen, Guenter Knop... and me :)

There is also a feature by journalist Sharon Waxman on "The New Media". It is a good read.

I am happy, and proud, to see in this issue, the work of Franchesco!. Franchesco! is an artist who's work I have been familiar with for a few years now. His work is a little different from the kind of work that has been exhibited in NUDE in the past. Franchesco! like me, has a background in comic books and illustration, and has a style all his own. He has created some truly beautiful works, outside of his comic book work, that maintains his comic book/ illustration roots, and can at the same time be considered fine art nudes. You can see a preview of one of the pieces in the preview issue at carrieliegh.com.

Best of all in this issue is.. The return of NUDE magazines first cover model Sydney Brown .. I have said before that there is a disadvantage of appearing in the first issue of any publication. It is that as a new title, people are not looking for it. Most pick it up because they stumble across it on a magazine rack. The print run is much smaller because it is unpredictable how well it will sell, so there too, only so many will actually see it, but soon if you are lucky, the magazine, the readership, and the distribution and print runs will grow as happened with NUDE.

NUDE became a hit... A huge hit. But are the people who buy NUDE today familiar with Sydney Brown, NUDE's first cover model?

Well.. They are going to know now. Sydney is back and hotter than ever. Carrie Leigh has shot another amazing pictorial with Sydney including a new cover that has broken the short tradition of NUDE covers. I can't imagine that this issue wont fly off shelves for the cover alone. It is Hot.. Sydney is beautiful... It is gonna sell.. trust me.. fast.

The Spring 2009 issue is shipping April 15. I try to let people know when the issues will be on the news stands, but there are all kinds of problems that seem to happen between when the books leave the distributors and when they his the stand, so I can only guesstimate. And when they do come out they sell so fast. I suggest for those who really don't want to miss this issue that they go to the website where they are now offering, at least in the United States, that for the cover price, you can have this issue delivered to your door. It is a great offer and insures you getting your issue. Check here for offer.

New art soon. I am inspired!

PS... Anastasia, Alicia, and Chanon.. I love you too!

Winter 2009 Issue of NUDE

So… I am excited. Sometime in the beginning of January, my friends at NUDE are releasing their 6th art packed issue of Carrie Leigh’s NUDE Magazine.

Sell out issue after sell out issue, Carrie and her staff are still finding the best talent out there in artistic nude photography and art and putting them all together for you.

This issue brings the talented work of Gigi Stoll, A.J. Kahn, Joris Van Daele, Mark Hoppe, Christophe Vermare, Norbert Gutheir, Sylvie Blum, Carrie Leigh, and Kim Weston. With Features with Pop Artist Mel Ramos, Nude art collector and aficionado Don Sanders and an exclusive interview with Hollywood and Broadway icon, and civil rights activist, Ruby Dee.

And of course there is one of my favorite parts of Carrie’s magazine… The Cover Model. Aside from being an amazing photographer, the other thing I would definitely credit Carrie Leigh with is picking cover models. Every new model is as beautiful as the last. (There are men’s magazines out there that should chose as well as she does.)

Anastasia Esper is the new cover model for the Winter 2009 issue of NUDE, and what a way to start off 2009. I am so in love with this model, and it is obvious from what I have seen so far, Carrie’s camera loves her too. Carrie was obviously inspired working with Anastasia. So much so I have pestered Carrie for prints of some of the images… And I will continue to pester her till I get them.. ☺

You have to get this issue and see what I am talking about. Preview it here

If you manage to get past the loveliness of Anastasia and her pictures, you may find that I have a new piece in the issue too. Just one… in the middle somewhere.. Maybe you want to look for it before you go to Anastasia?.. so you will see it.

Second Annual Photography Contest

Almost Here. What a cover! Robert Wuhl Interview.. etc

On or near Sept 18, the new issue of NUDE Magazine, the Fall 2008/ 1st anniversary issue, will finally be out. 

For the first time since the magazine had come out, this issue will also be available on the CarrieLeigh.com website. The copies there are available for order now. This is gonna be great news for those who have had trouble finding issues of NUDE when they come out because they sell out so damn fast. I live in Los Angeles. If I do not go out and get mine in the first few days of the release.. they will be gone and I have to scrounge around. 

Entertaining and interesting in the new issue is the comedic and politically driven interview with Robert Wuhl. Robert Wuhl has really funny specials on HBO called "Assume the Position with Mr Wuhl" in which he teaches a college course on interesting and funny fact and myths in American history. It is with this in mind that NUDE talks to "Mr Wuhl" about the present day elections, candidates and politics. It is a great read, and includes an amazing photoshoot by Carrie Leigh of Robert Wuhl as George Washington supported by NUDE Cover Models, the stunning Sydney Brown <3 and this issues beauty Alicia Marie Clark

Alicia Marie Clark... What a way to start off a new year for NUDE. What a cover. Classy and beautiful, you cant help but stare at the cover and fall into the models eyes. Alicia is such a pretty girl and amazing model. I had opportunity to meet Alicia while the cover was being put together and thought she was as pretty in person as in the photos. She is a sweet heart too. I think the world is going to be seeing a lot more of her in the future. The cover is hot, her opening photo of her shoot is absolutely stunning. 

Lots'a great photographers. Artist Eric Wallis, and of course, a new piece by me. Don't miss out on this issue. On Newsstands and Bookstores and Online NUDE Store.

New Practice Piece

I haven't been drawing much lately. I had other JOB related stuff to do. but I am getting back into it. This was a warm up piece for the new work I will have in the Fall issue of NUDE. I got it done just in time. 

Enjoy

Nude News

Wow... I have mentioned in a previous blog about the the success of Carrie Leigh's Magazine compare to the failures of so many, one time popular, magazines today. This is really amazing because NUDE is not a sports or entertainment magazine, nor is it an erotic men's magazine even though it contains nude images and it's name is "NUDE".  

NUDE is a fine art, black and white, artist nude art magazine, and it is not only selling off racks as soon as it hits, but it is being talked about and making news.

-----------------------------------------

LOS ANGELES, July 18, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ ----Fine art publisher Carrie Leigh announced today that she has expanded Nude Magazine's distribution base. With the release of the summer issue, in stores now, Ms. Leigh says that she has added Barnes and Noble to her existing distribution base which includes Borders, Joseph Beth, Hastings and other fine booksellers and newsstands throughout America.

In meeting her first year's goal for the United States Distribution of Carrie Leigh's Nude, she also says that she is now looking to expand distribution in foreign markets that presently include: Canada, Germany, Austria, New Zealand, Australia, Luxembourg and Brazil.

Fine art photographer Carrie Leigh, who lived with Hugh Hefner in the early to late 1980's founded Nude in 2007 to fill a void in the publishing world. According to Ms. Leigh, "there was not an outlet for established artists or undiscovered talent to have their work seen by the world, so we created one."

Carrie Leigh's Nude is a high end plate printed, sheet feed art quarterly that has been called a book disguised as a magazine which has been embraced by art aficionados throughout the world.

--------------------------------------------------------

CARMEL, Calif., Aug 01, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ ----The success of Carrie Leigh's NUDE Magazine has set a new standard for the world of fine art aficionados, says historian, lecturer and photographer Kim Weston. "Imagine, it has taken almost fifty years for America to catch up with the rest of the world in how the female form is viewed as art and not pornography. In Europe and Japan the female body has been viewed in the way NUDE portrays it for decades and now finally in America we have a publication that breaks new ground for artistic freedom. My grandfather, the legendary photographer, Edward Weston, had spent his last years attempting, but with no success, to publish his work in a format similar to Carrie Leigh's NUDE." Weston says, "Ironically, it took decades for Edward's work to be published by the Getty Museum, and now we have a quarterly fine art magazine that exhibits the finest fine art photographers."

Weston continues, "Considering that twenty years ago photographer Carrie Leigh was titled the First Lady of Playboy, who would have guessed that both her talent and taste, in art, would be the tremendous force that is now establishing the way the world sees the female form.

"I have had the pleasure of both exhibiting in NUDE and working with Carrie Leigh," adds Weston, "and I can truly say that her talent as a artist and a curator will be felt for years to come."

Playboy's Former First Lady, Carrie Leigh Signs Multi Million Dollar Distribution Contract for NUDE Magazine

LOS ANGELES, Aug 05, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Rider Circulation Services has announced that publisher Carrie Leigh has signed a multi year multi million dollar extension contract for the distribution of her magazine NUDE. According to Mike Werner, "in it's first year Carrie Leigh's NUDE has established itself as the leader in the fine art world and it's growth is unprecedented for a magazine of it's gender Since its release in September 2007, Carrie Leigh's NUDE has become one of the fastest growing publications in many years and we are pleased to be the distributors of this title. In addition to NUDE, Rider Circulation Services has offered Ms. Leigh a development deal for future titles."

"Ms. Leigh's is a very astute publisher," adds Mr. Werner, "therefore because she has proven that she has the ability to create print product for niche markets we have extended her distribution contact to include all new titles she wishes to produce."

Gary Frischer, spokesperson for the Carrie Leigh Publishing Group confirms that, "Carrie is obviously pleased with her new contact and we are developing another title but are very cautious in that we believe that it is a mistake to produce a magazine that is replicated by thousands of internet sites. NUDE is a one of a kind high quality magazine that Carrie Leigh created with every element of fine art and photography in mind. Her goal was to place a fine art quarterly back on the coffee table and by the success of NUDE she has obviously succeeded. The new publication will have the same quality and impact of NUDE and we are looking forwards to its launch in 2009."

-----------------------------------------------------------------

To me this is all amazing.. I am sooooo proud of my friends who put this all together. I am honored to have my little part in it as an artist, and I am hoping to see the magazine go on  for a long time.

With the chaos going on in this country and the world around us, and puritanical values that, at times, seemed to be being force upon us, that art and artistic nudity can find it's place and be successful.

Something Special

New from my friends at Carrie Leigh's NUDE Magazine. At the distributors warehouse, they found 8 boxes of the Premiere issue. 

To celebrate the release of the latest issue which completes their first year of publishing, they are combining those with the other three in a limited, collectors boxed edition. Issues 1 and 3 outside of this boxed set are completely gone and have been seen on Ebay for prices between 30 and 50 dollars each. This boxed set comes with these as the rest including the New Summer issue and a certificate of authenticity signed by Carrie Leigh...

Take a look

There are only 250 copies available.

PS. Summer issue comes out in about a week or so. New work by me... go get it. :)

Ok.. I just had to pass this on....

I am really gonna have to get some new work done soon. This is gonna look like a NUDE Magazine blog soon, but I had to pass this on because I think this is cool news for those interested in not missing any of my new work in upcoming issues [insert really big grin].

Carrie Leigh's NUDE Magazine to celebrate the completion of their first year publishing, has added to their subscriptions, a 2 year subscription at a greater discount. 2 years? That is at least 8 more pieces by me to see. [Insert bigger grin]

Take a look and see, but do it soon.. I am not sure how long this will last.

SUBSCRIPTIONS

So I was at the NUDE offices today....

...really just to get another look at the new cover for the Summer 2008 NUDE, but I entered to see Carrie standing there smiling, holding out a bunch of print outs and asking what I thought. I asked what I was looking at and she said "Winners". I then knew what I had been looking at. The winners of NUDE's First Annual Photography Contest... Cool huh?

For those who may be unaware, Carrie Leigh's NUDE Magazine hosts what is probably the most prestigious, fine art nude photography contest... Internationally. This is the only event where nude photography is featured as it's own category and the winners are published in print worldwide. There was some really amazing work turned in from all around the world. The winning works are beautiful.. To see who won the contest and to get information on the next contest, visit below.

NUDE's Annual Photography Contest

Ok... The Cover Model... 

OMG!...

Before I go on, I just want to say that what follows, takes nothing away from NUDE's Premiere cover model, Sydney <3. Sydney <3 is my personal goddess. To me she is a young Cindy Crawford and Famke Jensen all wrapped up in one. She is a true beauty.

Summer 2008 Cover model? HHHOOOTTTTT!!!! Wow! I was stunned when Carrie handed me the cover last week. This issue wraps up the first year of NUDE Magazine. And what a way to do it... Yeah, I know, the magazine is not about the cover models... This issue is packed with really amazing photography, by really amazing photographers... but between you and me... The cover gets people (who may not already be fans of the magazine) to pick the magazine up... I will always say that Sydney <3 sold the first issue.. This next issue Chanon Finley will be selling it.. I don't care if inside the magazine they have Jessica's Alba, Simpson, and Biel NUDE... Chanon is selling this issue. She is stunning. Really Stunning. And her shoot with Carrie Leigh is really amazing. 

Don't miss this issue because, aside from everything else I have mentioned,... I have a new piece in the magazine.

"Don't miss this issue", brings up one more point I would like to mention... Now you can not only find NUDE magazine at most major news stands, Borders Books and Hastings Books... Now, NUDE Magazine can also be purchased at Barnes and Noble book stores.  Remember though.... NUDE Magazine sells out fast. Every issue, so far, has pretty much sold out of most places in the first week. With a cover and issue like this? It is gonna sell fast. Be safe with a subscription.

NUDE Subscriptions

Oh yeah... Since this is my blog and I should talk a little about myself . :)  Glamour-Con 42 was this past weekend. I can honestly say, I was surprised. Rewind a bit. Glamour-Con is a convention of sorts that brings Playmates old and new as well as erotic models and artist to the fans. I believe the show is sponsored, in some way, by Playboy magazine. I hadn't been to a Glamour-con in a few years. It really wasn't much of a show at the time. This time, new hotel, bigger ballroom, and lots of models. The biggest surprise though was the Saturday turnout. Lots of people.

I did pretty good.. Sold a bunch of sketch books old and new, and I sold a few prints. Bet If I had Sydney <3 there, I would have sold out ;)

It was a good show. I may do the next one in November. Look for me... New work posting soon!!!

New Sketchbook for GlamourCon

New for the Glamour Con Los Angeles. I have taken a lot of the new work I have done for NUDE Magazine, and other works like it , and put it together in a little 24 page "Ash-can" style sketchbook. So far I have only had 60 copies printed for the Glamour Con.. If it does well I will print more for the website and Comic Con. I am hoping though to get a lot more of this work together to produce a real art book of it. I will post if I have soon if I have any to sell on website. But I warn.. I am really slow at shipping stuff out. 

PS.. Oh yeah.. I saw the cover to the summer issue of NUDE.. SWEEEEEET!.. The new cover model is hot! It is yet another great issue by Carrie Leigh... No slowing them down huh.. When other magazines are going under and falling apart. NUDE seems to be getting better. I can't wait for it to come out.

New Sketch 03/27/08

I have been slacking.. I don't think that I actually picked up a pencil for 3 weeks.

Motivated by someone who is a big fan of my work, I broke out my "magic reds" and started sketching this morning. The model is a long time friend (Ann).

Maybe I will take this one to a tighter piece. Got lots to do before that.

Enjoy

New art

Nikki and Linda's Hair

Two of my favorite models.. Well only one actually modeled for me. Nikki, I draw a lot. She is my best friend, shark enthusiast, beautiful, and has great hair. I love this image. It was from a picture where she wasn't really ready for the pic. (Pre-mature shutter release). Not ready, but a captured moment I think was great.

Linda O'Neil never modeled for me. This was from a found photo. She has always been one of my favorite models and like Nikki... has great hair. :)

NUDE Magazine update... Winter storms have delayed the magazine release. Trucks carrying issue 2, the winter issue, have been slowed if not stopped by bad weather across the country. Hopes are west coast should release this weekend at newsstands. Middle states should get it at the beginning of next week, and the east coast should be getting it next weekend... Should being the operative word.

Hey... Maybe I can get NUDE's "Sydney Brown <3" to model for me? Hmmmmm.... She's Hot :)
