Gas masks scare me. It only takes a thought about their purpose. However, whilst researching for this picture it would appear a lot of people have a fetish for gas masks. I couldn't say why, but I guess that's why they're called fetishes. Each to their own!

With this, I wanted something so normal (or rather so retro) as a husband kissing his wife before leaving the home but put an odd spin on it. Gas masks were the first thing that came to mind - you certainly can't kiss anyone whilst wearing them. As for the surrounding, well everything's post-apocalyptic these days so let's assume the world's end is nigh here. Taking something so odd and having to deal with it like it's the norm.

I guess the idea came from playing Half-Life 2 for the first time. Those CP's aren't your friends. And maybe a bit of Call of Duty 4, good game, but sick.

On a brighter note, you could say this shows love conquering all! Yes, I'll leave it as that.

As an avid fetishist, and someone who's actually organized events for that sort of a community, I really love this pic, I've ordered the largest size available, and I really appreciate the piece in it's clash between the bizarre and the everyday romantic. Great piece. ^_^

Actually, the largest is 30x40... and that's what I ordered. I won't be able to have it framed and on the wall until I move this summer, but I'll remember to send you a pic once it's up in the new living room. ^_^
