Burlesque Berlin - so far!

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 this amazing event would say. Many thanks to him and the Kookaburra Club and of course all the perormers for being such an inspiration! 

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.

Venice

This year I participated in Yuko Shimizu's 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!
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.

Burlesque Berlin: Lady Lou

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.

So for the first portrait I chose Lady Lou. 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.
