Clairikine (Cartoonist) - In A Minute Portrait (Week 364)
Показать описание
One of my favorite pieces by her I purchased as an official print that we have hanging in our living room - based on a Hunter S. Thompson quote.
She has had her work published many places, like Travels of Adam. But she also does commission work for personal use!
And here's a little fan girl moment of my own: Together with Adam and Clairikine, I appear in the epilogue of her Master of Survival #3 - a trilingual autobiographical comic. We're not listed by name - but we know who we are, sitting at St. Oberholz Cafe on Rosenthaler Platz in Berlin. I especially appreciate the sentiment that she expresses in those last few frames of Master of Survival because I can relate to them well.
We shot the interview in 1 minute and 40 seconds (!) at the Berlin Tegel airport in December, when Clairikine was about to fly off to Chicago and I was on my way back to Colorado. So please excuse the noisy background. While it's true that I wanted to feature a lot of her drawings in the video, it's also true that for some reason the auto-focus was activated and decided to focus on planes in the background instead of her face. So the rest of the interview is out of focus. Shame.
So I want to thank Claire, as I like to call her, for providing all the extra drawings and for all her engaging and personal work - and for being my friend. THANK YOU!
