All you Chicago Kinksters… you know who Taylor Buck is.

You know how incredibly talented he is.

Below are some examples of his artwork.

Congrats to Taylor… he has his FIRST Exhibit this month at the Leather Archives and Museum!

The LA&M is very easy to get to. Map below. Here’s the Facebook Event page. Please RSVP!

See you there!
