comic, film, illustration

here is my first photo sketch from Paris. O.K. obviously it is something completly different. I have so much stuff to do, that I can´t scan the stuff I did.  There would be a lot to write about that, and I ahd some nice ideas, but it will take some time ( to cut it short France is always pretty inspiring). This could be a title page to the last comic, but it actually is from an invitation to an exhibition with Ruth and Felo in April… It is a kind of homage to Herge I guess. I am afraid me and Steven Spielberg liked the same comics when we were young, for I just heard that he uses the Rackham volumes as the basis for his Mocap- feature film, which sounds like a nightmare…kaeptn

Hello

Uncategorized

Thsi week there is going to be a break. I am in Paris at the Animation sans Frontiere, which I like a lot. The best thing about is are my fellow participents… Next week there are probably going to be lots of drawings from French cafes and so on, but at the moment there is no scanner available.
One word to pirates. The last post was really an excuse to draw a ship, because I read a book about pirates shortly before I did that comic. I think the discrepancy between image and reality is nowhere as big as with them. Basically all of them where just very ordinary criminals, and like with most criminals you are pretty happy if you can avoid meeting one. So I lied. But I like ships…..

Hi

I didn´t finish the comic strip I was working on. I hope to finish it in the course of next week. It deals with my new experience of carnival. To cut it prettty short, carnival seems to be fun, but my three beer rule is kind of counterproductive. It needs more then that . So I will have one year to decide what to do next time. So here is a slightly older comic. I wasn´t completly satisfied with it, but I guess it is O.K. arbeitslosechipslang_1arbeitslosechipslang_2arbeitslosechipslang_3

Hello there….

The last two weeks were pretty exhausting. I have started a new job at Cologne and we try to set up our flat simultaneously. O.K. enough chitchat. This is about drawing. I have started these two drawings already in Leipzig. The one with our beloved Bundeskanzler, Mrs. Angela Merkle, is an idea which is already 3 weeks old. So if you are not into German politics you won’t get the joke, and if you are into German politics and you don´t get the joke, it is probably because it was more prevailling 2 or 3 weeks ago.

It is basically about the fact that some spin doctor told Angie to pose as the first environmentalist German Chancellor, which led to her travelling to Greenland. The photographs looked like she was going to be the cover model of the new Jack Wolfskin catalogue. As soon as the economic crisis kicked in Angie forgot all she said a few weeks before. These things are probably better told elsewhere. Zurückrudern means literally to row back and figuratively to revoke something.
