Think of kissing as an art and you are the artist behind the masterpiece! Being an artist entails observing, and then crafting your observations into an object of beauty you share with others.

One of the splendors of kissing as a sensuous art form is that with each kiss you have a chance to create something new and wonderful. You have a chance to keep the benefactor of your kisses intrigued as to what’s coming next. Similar to leading in a dance, which movements and steps will follow the previous, except with kissing you take turns leading and following. You co-create the dance of kissing.

Soft, tender kisses can melt away all logical thought and make you forget what you don’t need to remember anyway. Hot, firm kisses can fire up your passion and leave you thinking of one thing only. But both types of kisses in their various forms ignite a yearning for more as sexual arousal grows.

As with any art, there’s always some science involved. How colors blend, composition, choreography etc. I’ll get back to the art of kissing in a moment but first here’s a bit of science behind it.

Kissing feels good and great kissing feels wonderful because there are a tremendous amount of nerve endings in your lips that awaken with the slightest touch. As you become sexually aroused, your lips can give you away. As well as increased blood flow to the genitals, there’s increased blood flow to your lips (the ones on your face). As capillaries engorge, your lips swell slightly and lusciously round out while they deepen in color. These are primal visual cues that your arousal is increasing. Yup, there’s a reason all these things happen. Mating!

Besides the sensations and visual cues something else is happening. When you kiss someone, especially for the first time, usually one of two things will happen. Either your desire for this person will deepen or you’ll feel neutral about them, or perhaps even turned off. This is all about chemistry and there’s a reason it’s called chemical attraction. The thing that happens when you experience the sensation of ‘Wow. This feels incredible!’ is in your brain. Your brain goes into overdrive producing chemicals that act like a drug, making you crave more of what just happened.

In a long term relationship this still occurs when both partners are present and their kiss is more than a preoccupied peck on the run. Which brings us back to kissing as a sensuous art form.

Kissing isn’t just about your lips. It’s about your eyes, your hands, your breath, your tongue and your energy. Connect with your eyes. Build anticipation. Move in slowly. Hold your partners face in your hands, or the back of their neck and the small of their back. Pull together but don’t dive in yet. Take a moment. Feel the heat of each other’s breath. Breathe in their intoxicating scent. Savor the first sensation of their mouth on yours, even if you’ve been kissing each other for many years. Move slowly. Taste. Touch. Hear their tiny moans of pleasure. Explore. Let your tongues dance together. Tease. Change the rhythm. Take turns leading and following each other’s movements. Follow to learn what your partner likes and desires. Deepen the pressure. Press your bodies together. Build passion. Pull back. Gaze into each other’s eye once more. Linger for a moment then sink into another kiss.

This is kissing as a sensuous art form. Read the last paragraph again then seek out your partner and bring them to their knees. Tap into your inner artist. Swoon together.

Live a Happy, Sexy Life!
