The Kiss by Kat Camaro is one of the works on display in Naughty & Nice.

The Island Illustrators Society is hosting a saucy exhibition just in time for Valentine’s Day.

Naughty & Nice features works of seductive and romantic art at the Martin Batchelor Gallery. The opening reception is set for Saturday from 7 to 9 p.m.

“We’re having a foxy opening where everybody gets dressed up,” said member Jenus Friesen, who has work in the show.

Expect high heels, feather boas, “passionate” guitar by Shota Hori, as well as appetizers, beverages and prizes.

The Illustrators will also host a Valentine’s Day Fun Night in conjunction with the show on Feb. 14 from 7 to 9 p.m.

The adults-only event features live body painting, a “sexy” photo booth, appetizers, beverages and an a cappella performance by Shiri Lamothe.

Seventeen artists in addition to Friesen have works in the show, including Greg Glover, Beth Dunlop, Itchiman, Kat Camaro, Catharine Campbell, Natalie Shumka, Marlene Howell, Thom Jones, Michael Beseau, Miranda Lawrence, Rick Lick, Colin MacLock, Lorne Miller, Marcia Semenoff, Ivana Seymour, Haren Vakil and Allegra Vernon.

Naughty & Nice runs through Feb. 27.
