Your Curator

It is so nice you like to learn a little more about me. Let me introduce myself, I was born in 1972 and live in the Netherlands. I am married to a great guy, who understands my motivation for this site and does not complain when I get lost in cyberspace to dwell vintage fetish art (which happens often).
My very first website is a personal diary which still exists, this site was where my love for bdsm art grew and it also was the start of my various art projects.
Years ago I decided to try and earn a little money by sharing my knowledge and art through my various art projects. This is quite challenging since most folks just want to browse for free and as a Dutch girl I do understand this 😉 but as someone who struggles with chronic fatigue syndrome, pelvic instability and a little arthritis I have to find creative ways to earn some income.
So besides working on my sites I also work as kink aware professional and am a caretaker.
In case you appreciate my site and art and you did not sign up as premium member please consider this. Your support enables me to continue working on this amazing collection of vintage fetish art.

As creative photographer I love to be in the process of photographing and creating art, those interested are invited to view my art via sites: Dwell the Visions (photography), The Absence of Color (photography) and Dwell the Moods (AI generated Art)
When you want to contact me you can either contact me through one of my social media (FetLife and Deviant Art)  or use the contact form at this site.
