THE ILLUSTRATIONS OF GREG STONESIn many of
Greg Stones’ drawings, the same scene keeps appearing — one that is both
simple and
disconcerting: a woman, standing calmly,
showing her breasts… in front of penguins, raccoons, rabbits, aliens, or animals that seem
more surprised than aroused. There is no
explicit sexual tension, no
classic narrative, no
explanation. Just the gesture. And
the gaze of the other.
These are
simple drawings, almost
childlike in form, yet
loaded with intention. Or rather, loaded with
questions. Why show her breasts? Why to them? Why in the middle of snow, open fields, or an
empty landscape? Stones doesn’t seem interested in answering. He prefers to
set the scene and walk away, leaving the viewer alone with
what they feel.
There is something
deeply animal in these images. Something
primitive. As if the human body,
naked and without drama, were presented to creatures that
do not judge, do not moralize, and do not interpret the gesture as
provocation. They simply observe. The way an animal looks at something new without loading it with
guilt,
rules, or
learned meanings.
That may be why they work so well. Because they reduce the body to
what it is: a body.
No discourse.
No excuses.
No need for justification. Faced with gazes that don’t know what to do with it — but also
do not condemn it.
Greg Stones doesn’t seem to want to
eroticize so much as to
dislocate. To take nudity out of its
sexual context and place it in a more
absurd, more
innocent, more
instinctive space. As if reminding us that, before everything else,
we are still animals looking at other animals…
without really knowing why we do what we do.
And that’s where
the charm is.
And also
the substance.

BOOBS#338 AND HAPPY 2026 TO EVERYONEThe last post of the year — allow me to dedicate it to one of the sagas I like the most. The one that always comes to mind first when I think about
ALRNCN:
boobs.
I’m not entirely sure why. Maybe that’s something you’d have to ask
Freud. The thing is, they get me every time. I’m
100% team boobs. Very few things compare to a pair of
great boobs. There’s something that comes close to
perfection when boobs are well put together: the way they fall, the shape, the volume, the size of the nipple. That whole combination that, when it works,
needs no explanation.
And no, I’m not talking about big or small.
I like them all. Because boobs always go in
context with the rest of the body. There are bodies that call for one type of boob and others that work better with a different one. Faces that match certain shapes or presences better. In the end, it’s all about
balance. But if someone has
great boobs… what can I say:
you say yes to everything.
So yes, I’m closing the year with
boobs. It could’ve been done another way, but it
wouldn’t make sense. Because
ALRNCN is this. It’s always been this. Looking at the female body
without guilt,
without weird speeches,
without apologizing. Enjoying it.
Period.
And since we’re wrapping up the year, I want to wish you
all the best for 2026. The usual stuff:
excitement,
energy,
projects,
dreams. Thanks for being with us
one more year, for being there, for stopping by, for coming back. I honestly hope I’ve
entertained you,
distracted you, and — even if just for a few minutes — helped you
forget how rough life can be sometimes.
I wish you
lots of luck in everything, but above all
good health, because in the end that’s
the one thing you can’t replace.
See you next year with the
same energy and the
same excitement I had the day I registered this domain and started this project,
23 years ago.
And yes.
We’ll keep talking about boobs.
