Marc DeBauch

Marc DeBauch has been creating homoerotic fantasy art for over 40 years. Raised by a conservative family, and forced to go to Catholic grade school, Marc only rebelled against the repressive nature of the church. (This is still evident in some of his religious art.) At the age of 23, he joined the sex cult of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, changed his name to Satyarthi, wore only red clothing, sold all of his worldly possessions, (except his paint brushes), and moved to India. When he returned to the USA in 1980, Marc began to paint turbulent landscapes and fantasy art, including homoerotic subjects.
In 1995 Marc won first place in the Tom of Finland Foundation’s Emerging Erotic Artists Contest. Since then, his art has been exhibited internationally in galleries, museums, The Tom of Finland Erotic Art Fairs from 1996-2006, and gay pride festivals. His paintings have been published in erotic art books as well as adult magazines. Marc’s interests include archeology, zoology, astrology, mythology, botany, art history and canine agility training. Marc currently lives in Minneapolis with Eduardo, his husband of 33 years.
