This is your only chance to fund and purchase a book of Suzanne Forbes' art! For twenty years, Suzanne used skills developed as a tv courtroom artist to live-draw LGBTQ+ and kink community. Now at the end of her working life, Suzanne wants to preserve and share these portraits of cherished folx, many marginalized and often erased. Your 8.5"x 11" (like A4), 200+ page hardcover copy of "Demimonde" includes color and b&w drawings of SF and Berlin kinksters, drag artists, and lots of trans beloveds!
What is the project goal and who is the project for?
Always Capturing the moment!

The goal of the Demimonde book project is to preserve and share these portraits of kinky and creative queers, trans sex workers, drag performers, dominatrixes and burlesque beauties. I went all in on putting my art online in 2005, and for twenty years my archive of almost 3000 drawings and paintings has been available to download, use and share for free. But online spaces that support sex-positive and gender-affirming art are shrinking fast.
I'm very sick and at the end of my working life. To keep these precious portraits of beautiful humans visible, to protect these moments I shared with San Francisco and Berlin's sexy queers, we need a physical repository too.
If you love queer community, if you love leatherfolk and fetish fashion and sex workers, you want to help preserve and distribute these portraits in the real world too.
