Sex is art and my artist boyfriend taught me that...

We all tend to take sex very casually. It’s not just sexual intercourse and pleasure but so much more. When two bodies clash against each other in a pit of fire, desire and pleasure, the outcome is immeasurable. The feelings of satisfaction outweigh any other emotion in the world at that pivotal moment. And sex just makes you feel powerful, enlightened and even overwhelming sometimes. But when you have someone who makes every moment feel special, sex becomes a different experience altogether.

I met Sahil* at an art gallery exhibition in Mumbai and just like a fairytale, we began talking and laughing together while sipping on wine. He casually asked me to dinner and I said yes. He later revealed that one of his abstract paintings was hung up there and that one had particularly caught my eye. I was delighted! The brush strokes were absolutely refined and his fingers looked firm yet slender. He had a certain aura around him that made him oddly attractive and sensual. I looked at him and I knew I wanted him.

We went to his apartment and as I figured out, he was a passionate artist and is reflected in his tastes. As we began undressing, his fingers roamed my body and touched me in places I’ve never been touched before. I had the best sex ever. He treated my body like it was art and as he devoured my body, I felt celebrated as a woman. His sexual ways were boundless and it caught me within a trance. I felt exotic.

Few weeks in, we were dating. We had a very special thing going; we would cook for each other, visit museums together and had amazing sex ever. When there are an artist’s hands at work, it is entirely a different feeling. He makes me feel like my body is a canvas of different emotions, experiences and feelings. I used to treat sex as a vessel of obtaining satisfaction and pleasure but now, I respect sex as a close bond that brings two people closer in the most unique way ever. This intimate setting brings erotica into the scene that my artist boyfriend has taught me so well. I have started to love sex and treasure every moment of it, all thanks to him!
