Happy Holidays! (Extra Goody #6 + Hedoluxe's Holiday Greetings too)

Extra Goody #6 - "Happy Holidays!"



...And credit of course where credit is due; Mildred's holiday outfit and greeting card were directly and unabashedly inspired by and derived from Hedoluxe's greeting card and wonderful Christmas Tree costume!



...Here are some shots from our Dr. Sketchy's Anti Art School Berlin Winter Session from December 11th, so you can get a better look at this wonderful costume:



And just for fun - here's a little collection of three of Mildred's greeting cards from Christmases past:



Mildred and I hope that you and yours are having a wonderful holiday season!!!
Hugs + kisses,

Dr. Sketchy's Berlin No.11 + Salon Kokett No.6 - Sat. Dec. 11th!

...We've got another of those burlesque double doses coming up for you tomorrow!

The first dose begins in the afternoon with another of our regular Dr. Sketchy's Anti Art Berlin drawing sessions cozily tucked into our usual White Trash Fast Food location. This will be No.11 of our regular sessions (making a total of 14 sessions in all since we began in October of last year - if you count our 3 special extra-sessions to the mix). I s'pose we're not doing so badly for such a young branch. ;)

Here are tomorrow afternoon's details....

Dr. Sketchy's Berlin No.11 - The Winter Session



Dr. Sketchy's Anti Art School Berlin celebrates the darkest days of the year! This time with some good friends from way up North (Hamburg).

KOKO LA DOUCE & HEDOLUXE

We’ll be offering our usual 3-hour Life Drawing Extravaganza with two extraordinary models, drinks, our ever-popular drawing competitions and dangerous prizes! (Don't forget your art supplies!)

When?
December 11th, 2010 - 2:30-5:30pm (doors open 2:00pm)
Where?
WHITE TRASH FAST FOOD RESTAURANT Schönhauser Allee 6-7
How much?
Just measly 10 Euros! (Tickets at the door)

We have a special guest for this particular session as well, by the way; a bit of extra eye-candy in the form of a handsome young fellow named Kyrill Krylow. I'll be interested to see what our stars, Koko la Douce and Hedoluxe have cooked up for our unsuspecting guest... ;)



And now, on to the evening hours and burlesque-dose #2...

Lola la Voix had a lovely time jumping in as a singing emcee for Salon Kokett No.5 back in November, and will now be emceeing and singing again at Salon Kokett No.6. And our stars from Dr. Sketchy's , after spending the afternoon posing as artists' models, will knock our socks off with some wicked burlesque goodness at CCCP's newish all-night burlesque party! Doors open at 10pm:



Come and spend the day and the night with us!!!

Hugs + kisses,

Today is Mildred's Birthday, But Not LaLaVox's

Hi! LaLaVox here again - as always - since Mildred's not really one for writing blogs and such...

...None the less, it is her birthday today. Folks who know me from back in the days when I was still active at various online music forums will know which fan-nerddom of mine led me to pick Nov. 21st as Mildred's birthday.

But since she and I not only share this blog but also a FaceBook profile (under her name rather than mine), there is much confusion about the birthday issue. I get to celebrate twice a year now; once for my own birthday - which is in June, and once for Mildred's.

And then there's the issue of what folks should call me when they meet me in public. This has already been addressed in my Mildred Mahler vs LaLaVox blog entry.

But it's more complicated than just Mildred and myself. There are also Lorelei Vanora and Lola la Voix to contend with. So I've prepared this chart to clear up some of the confusion. Voilà!



Yes. I know it's all a bit much, but I've made my bed and I now intend to lie in it... :P ;)


Hugs + kisses,

A Video Snippet of Lorelei Vanora

Our DR SKETCHY'S ANTI ART SCHOOL BERLIN MEETS PINKY'S PEEPSHOW extra-session on Wednesday evening was great fun! Our models, Miss Mama Ulita & Rummelsnuff, were fabulous to behold, DJ UFO Hawaii played a myriad of wonderful South Sea and Exotica tunes for us, Christopher Rose with Trixie Trainwreck (aka Trinity Sarratt) and Luscious Lloyd were gracious hosts, the decore - provided by Dr. Sketchy's Anti Art School Berlin organizer and co-host Johnny "Mulholland" Fitz (aka Matthias Pflügner) and Moritz R. - was delightful, and our audience of sketch-happy artists was lovely and talented, as always! Also - as usual - I can't wait to see the gobs of photos taken by our sneaky and wonderful photo-ninja, Nina Zimmermann!

In the meantime, here's a snippet of Lorelei Vanora's performance during the evening, which was kindly sent to me by Katja and Moritz R.. Off-camera you can hear DJ UFO Hawaii playing ukulele for us from behind the turn tables...

Thank you so much for the video, Katja, and thanks again to everyone else for making it into such a fab evening!!!

Dr. Sketchy's Berlin Meets Pinky's Peepshow + DJ UFO Hawaii + Mermaid Stuff!

Don't forget folks! We've got our special extra-session -
DR SKETCHY'S BERLIN MEETS PINKY'S PEEPSHOW
- coming up tomorrow evening (Wed. Nov. 10th)! And special-guest-DJ, UFO Hawaii, has been busy sorting through his mountains of vintage vinyl to prepare gobs of South Seas and Exotica music for us to draw to!




We will also have the pleasure of adding a couple of large tiki masks painted by none other than Moritz R. to the general decor of the evening!

SO DON'T MISS IT!!!!!!!!

Here are all of the various infos and links once again...



DR SKETCHY'S BERLIN MEETS PINKY'S PEEPSHOW

ALOHA!

Pissed off by the weather in Berlin? Then just hop on board and fly with us to the sunny Caribbean. And look who will be waiting there to see you!

MISS MAMA ULITA & RUMMELSNUFF

special guests LORELEI VANORA & DJ U.F.O. HAWAII

We’ll be offering the usual 3-hour Life Drawing Extravaganza with two extraordinary models, drinks, our ever-popular drawing competitions and grrrrrreat prizes! (Don't forget your Art supplies)

When? November 10th 2010 7-10 pm (doors open 6:30pm)
Where? At the BASSY CLUB / Schönhauser Allee 176a
How much? Just measly 10 €! (Tickets at the door)



And since Lorelei Vanora will be making a small appearance during the course of the evening, I'd like to take this opportunity to talk mermaids for a moment or two...

...The sparkling and ever-delightful Carolyn Turgeon has written a book
called MERMAID which will be hitting the market in March of next year. And to celebrate this publication she's set up an I Am A Mermaid blog where she plans to begin posting mermaid interviews and info on a regular basis starting January 1st, 2011. I love the blurb she's written over in the ABOUT section. Swim over and give it a read.



She's already interviewed Ms. Vanora (after seeing her October 20th appearance at Pinky's Peepshow; this interview will be aired on her blog sometime in January or February) and has a long list of other professional mermaids and mermaid experts who've agreed to interviews to add to the mix. It will be full of information and fun for mermaid lovers everywhere!

Vintage Mildred Halloween Greetings (Extra Goody #5) + Dr. Sketchy's Berlin News

Extra Goody #5 - "Vintage Mildred Halloween Greetings!"


I have been neglecting Mildred mercilessly for months on end once again - for lack of time! The other elements of my day to day life just keep getting in the way, and this Halloween is no exception. But I thought it might at least be kinda fun to see some early Mildred art. Better than nothing, right? So here's one of her Halloween cards from early on. The original line art is from 2006, and the color is a slight 2008-revamping of the original 2006 color.

Happy Halloween folks!

p.s. I'll say a word or two about how insane my October 2010 has been after I return to Berlin on the November 8th. In the meantime here's a little Dr. Sketchy's Anti Art School Berlin heads-up: We've got another special extra-session coming up:

My Kingdom for a Grand...

...And by that I mean a grand piano! There will be no grand piano, nor even any piano at all, but rather a mere keyboard, provided by Asphalt for the Let's Misbehave party on the 22nd after all, and Miss Erna Aloisia Pachulke has decided that under these conditions it would be better to stick strictly to her bilingual split-personality MC-ing and save the songs that she and Lola la Voix have been working on together for performance at some later date.

Lola la Voix will be at the party anyway of course, in the audience, enjoying performances by Mama Ulita and The Queensgang Orchestra ect, and looking forward to future appearances with Miss Erna Aloisia Pachulke (and assorted other planned stuff). We hope to see you there!
