Mirth And Beauty: Smiles, Everyone, Smiles!

Since we're drawn to words here at Fleshbot almost as much as we're turned on by a good sense of humor (looking at naked boobs all day is really just an excuse to write funny things about them, honest!), we were immediately intrigued by the title of Chicago artist K Leo's online portfolio. Finally, an art nude photographer who didn't take himself quite so seriously! Which isn't to say that the photos on display at Mirth And Beauty aren't professional or anything--on the contrary, they're among the most technically accomplished (and sexiest) art nudes we've come across lately. And while K Leo's definition of mirth may not include things like naked babes in clown makeup, there's still more than enough beauty in his work to make us smile. When one of your subjects is a Chicago burlesque performer named Kitten Kaboodle, it's hard not to.
