My series of Berlin based and Berlin related Burlesque performers so far. It was exhibited ant the Fish and Whips Burlesque contest last weekend which was fantastic - natürlich! as Jack Woodhead the host of <a href="http://burlesque-contest.de/">this amazing event </a>would say. Many thanks to him and the Kookaburra Club and of course all the perormers for being such an inspiration! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The series is far from being finished there are many girls and boys I still want to draw. Also my brother will turn some of them into copper figurines. There will be an exhibition of our works in the middle of September, I'll keep you updated.</div>

<br />This year I participated in <a href="http://www.yukoart.com/index.html">Yuko Shimizu's</a> illustration course in Venice. It was an unforgettable and inspiring experience, I get a warm fuzzy feeling when I think back to this beautiful impossible city and all those crazy talented woman I had the pleasure of getting to know a little - oh and the food! expensive but delicious!
<br />We had an assingment for the course which was to draw an illustration of a superhero saving Venice. We took a gondola ride once so I could really see a gondoliere in action and suffice to say was very impressed. So he is my hero who saves the city.

<br />
<br />This is the first image of my new series, which will be a series of portraits of Berlin Burlesque artists. Burlesque in Berlin is constantly getting better and better and it has made going out more fun for me than I could have imagined - and I love going out. Basically, every night were there is Burlesque involved is special and fun and never ever boring.
<br />
<br />So for the first portrait I chose <a href="http://ladylou-burlesque.com/HOME.html">Lady Lou</a>. As you can see in the video she is absolutely gorgeous and a fantastic dancer. I love the design of the costume and how it really becomes part of the dance.

Not only did he have the wonderfull idea to create illostribute, a blog where contemporary illustrators interpret the works of great classic ilustrators, but he also managed to gather some really incredible artists to participate on the posts.<br />Today the third post went online and it is an explosion of great art. This time the topic was pulp artist Norman Saunders. His large body of work contains pulp in every variety you can think of: western, noir, science fiction, horror, you name it. So this is something you can really have fun with, which reflects greatly <a href="http://illostribute.com/2010/10/norman-saunders/">in the post</a>.<br />But I do have to say this also made it very hard for me to pick something. A goofy pulp cover would have been fun, but whenever I went through his work this one image always really caught my eye:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TLLrBR-BtaI/AAAAAAAAArA/ydiu2cxbBLY/s1600/artlogo1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 307px; height: 350px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TLLrBR-BtaI/AAAAAAAAArA/ydiu2cxbBLY/s400/artlogo1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5526738099972978082" border="0" /></a><br />The feminist in me was thinking, Man, what a ****load of cliches, while the artist just thought "What a powerfull, dark image, great composition, cool poses, and flaming colors!

I found a style that is relatively quick to do and that looks okay enough to me. The big question was the inking. I have almost zero experience when it comes to inking, but that doesnt really reflect on what I expect my outcome to look like - which is perfect, of course.

Contemporary, working illustrators are invited to choose an image of said master and create their own interpretation or copy. </blockquote><br />I was happy to hear that the first illustrator that was chosen was J.C. Leyendecker. I am a great Leyendecker fan, he was a master at both elegance and humor. I could look at his painting for hours and study his amazing technique: the way he combines a classic painterly approach and very graphic solid color shapes give his works both the appeal of a well rendered painting and the definite impact of a graphic poster.<br />For more information and of course all the lovely tributes <a href="http://illostribute.com/?p=185">got to the illustribute post! </a> <br />I took the arrow collar adds as a starting point for my tribute. Here are some sketches:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TDHzDG-5ulI/AAAAAAAAAnY/2jRudg_1E7c/s1600/leyendecker01.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 280px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TDHzDG-5ulI/AAAAAAAAAnY/2jRudg_1E7c/s400/leyendecker01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5490436655480945234" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TDHzDxcRrLI/AAAAAAAAAng/293YB-YUIDM/s1600/leyendecker_sketch_72.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 198px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TDHzDxcRrLI/AAAAAAAAAng/293YB-YUIDM/s400/leyendecker_sketch_72.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5490436666878438578" /></a>Steffi Schützehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12456161538493723719noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7899922905982626276.post-55071264111978296512010-06-18T10:26:00.000-07:002011-02-01T10:53:44.099-08:00Mildred Loves You!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TButg94GfCI/AAAAAAAAAm8/nx7sTPrrwCQ/s1600/mildred_72.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 192px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TButg94GfCI/AAAAAAAAAm8/nx7sTPrrwCQ/s400/mildred_72.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5484167753130998818" /></a><br />A drawing I made for my friend the lovely Miss Lalavox! On her <a href="http://mildredlovesyou.blogspot.com/">Blog</a> and <a href="http://www.mildredlovesyou.com/themondaypinup/MLY20080000.html">Website</a> you can find many beautiful illustrations of her chracter Mildred Mahler and her friends. I love how those girls all have very different looks and personalities and of course, also the amazing costumes Laura designs for them. Be sure to check out her sketches, Laura is also an amazing Storyboard Artist and it really shows in her vivid, effortlessly elegant sketch lines!<br />To give you an idea this is one of my favorite works by her:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TBu4oZlSsOI/AAAAAAAAAnM/GIJCtzxK1jM/s1600/MLY20090034plusssPhantasma1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 290px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TBu4oZlSsOI/AAAAAAAAAnM/GIJCtzxK1jM/s320/MLY20090034plusssPhantasma1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5484179975455289570" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Talking about sketches here's mine - dont ask me how I missed those major tangents at her tassel ornaments:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TButhV_wAeI/AAAAAAAAAnE/RiDn_LNNxTg/s1600/mildred_sketch72.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 226px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SLOEBgAA4p4/TButhV_wAeI/AAAAAAAAAnE/RiDn_LNNxTg/s400/mildred_sketch72.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5484167759605531106" /></a>Steffi Schützehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12456161538493723719noreply@blogger.com2
