# Battle-Worn Smoking Seductresses Brian M. Viveros Creates Illustrations of Sultry Bloodied Women By Jason Soy | Published 2011-06-13 | Naughty Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brian-m-viveros References: [designlov](http://designlov.com/as-mulheres-de-brian-m-viveros.html) & [brianmviveros](http://www.brianmviveros.com/) Everything about these Brian M. Viveros illustrations just screams seductive. From the porcelain-skin ladies, to their various tobacco affinities, Viveros produces [traditional paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-portraits) with very alluring results, even when his subjects are blood-splattered and in desolate war zones. Brian M. Viveros is a world-renowned fetish artist and it's not hard to see why based on these titillating illustrations. What I like most about these Viveros paintings is the way he incorporates various iconography into his work. I would have never thought to pair a [Mickey Mouse helmet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skullpanda-x-sanrio) on a woman with an eye-patch and a cigarette hanging out of her mouth. And a badass chick wearing a [Darth Vader helmet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-villains-2)? I'm sold. Other costume motifs used in Viveros' work include vikings, geishas, luchadores, gladiators and bullfighters. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 71% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Naughty](https://www.trendhunter.com/naughty) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Seductive Illustrations:** Opportunity for artists to create alluring and provocative artwork that captures attention. - **Iconography Integration:** Potential for artists to incorporate unexpected and contrasting symbols in their artwork for added intrigue and uniqueness. - **Costume Motifs:** Emerging trend of incorporating various costume motifs in art, creating visually striking and unconventional pieces. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Art and Design:** Artists can leverage these trends to attract collectors and create a niche market for seductive and unconventional artwork. - **Fashion and Apparel:** Fashion designers can draw inspiration from these illustrations to create bold and daring clothing designs that blend different costume motifs. - **Entertainment and Media:** Opportunity for filmmakers and game developers to incorporate seductive and visually intriguing elements in their productions, catering to niche audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Glamorous Artful Bronze Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-jane.md) - [Digital Archetype Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-rex-van-minnen-1.md) - [Surreal Love-Themed Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joakim-ojanen.md) - [Apocalypse Post Pandemic Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-urban-art.md) - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Classical Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sen-donnan.md) - [Mexican Artist-Honoring Cannabis Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alas-pa-volar.md) - [Sex-Positive Art Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carne-bollente-3.md) - [Sexuality-Exploring Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rude-arts-club.md) - [Travel-Inspired Canvas Paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-passport-series.md)
