An out of town trip can make you long for home, or be an opportunity to engage in some anonymous fun. It is really a case of what happens out of town stays out of town.
With Business Trip, I incorporated several ideas I had thought about for some time. First, I wanted to draw a businessman, a professional, clean cut, straight arrow kind of guy. I like the idea of a guy in a suit, but even better is showing off what is hidden under his tailored clothes. Second, I had received requests to draw hot older guys. I do not typically consider the age of the men I draw, but I felt adding a touch of grey would make him more interesting. Lastly, there is something innocently arousing about a guy wearing just socks and a T-shirt. It is sexy, but snuggly. He is not trying to impress anyone with his pecs or abs, showing off like a shirtless peacock. He is just getting comfortable.
