Florida State Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Jameis Winston again finds himself at the center of controversy after a female art student at the university pulished a digital painting of him in several alarming poses.
In one of the illustrations, the 19-year-old Winston, who led the Seminoles to a national title and unblemished season, is seen sitting at his throne, Heisman in hand, while a man kneels before him performing a sex act. In another, a nude Winston wears a Heisman strapon while pictured with a female.
Jameis Winston facing civil suit?
Earlier this year, Winston was investigated for the sexaul assault of a fellow FSU student, but was never charged after prosecutors deemed their was not enough evidence to move forward with any criminal charges.
Though throughout the investigation Winston maintained he did nothing wrong and insisted the sex he and the alleged victim had that night was consensual, he has had his share of off-field issues since then. Just last week, he was criminally cited for stealing $32 worth of seafood from a super market and not long before then workers at a local fast food restaurant accused him of stealing soda.

Identified as Lena NW, the artist also wrote "The exploitation of the male form in my work functions as a reversal of the socially normative sexual objectification of woman. Throughout history men have used their sexual exploits to raise themselves in their own minds and the minds of their peers, however, social constructs have made impossible for women to use sex in the same way.
"In my work, men are literally objectified; their body parts are transformed into accessories, toys, and decor. Though initially, my work may come off as misandrist, it is actually intended to be gender neutral; unlike misogyny, misandry never had an institutional manifestation (i.e.: witch trials, The Malleus Maleficarum); it exists in my work as a karmic equalizer."
