"...sensual
nudes that pay homage to the female form in a manner that
is both graceful and elegant. Very rarely do we come across
a portfolio that strikes us so deeply..." - The New
Nude Magazine
"His
work is of the highest quality." - Jade:The International
Erotic Art & Literature Magazine
"The
effort of creating just this quality of light and shadow
is a tribute to the torturously exquisite attention Ball
bequeaths his models. What we are allowed and enabled to
envision is Ball’s true art, the ultimate seduction,
the torture." - Stevie Burns Voracitybeat |
