A Jolly Holiday

Lauren Annette dropped by for a posing session yesterday, we were imagining sort of an early teens english garden look. Downton Abbey maybe? Thanks Lauren!

A Viking Raider

Taryn Piana channeled her inner Viking warrior a couple weeks back, including her pet raven for the complete effect. Thanks Taryn!

Sorcery!

Stacy Walker brilliantly brought the dark arts to our little sketch class the other night as an amazing sorceress. Thanks Stacy!

Finally, A Website!

My pal Greg Pro was kind enough to set up a website for me,thanks buddy! I love how easy it is to update the blog, but this new site puts everything in easy reach. I also got permission to post some of my Disney Imagineering concept work (my day to day stuff) hopefully I can continue to add to that. Anyway, please visit when you can. WWW.CHRISTURNERART.COM

Teen Trouble

Marissa Gomez brought the 50's back to our drawing group with some great poses. I couldn't resist the exploitation paperback cover idea. Be-bop-a-lulah!

Barbarella Saves the Universe

Rachel Bailit brought us Barbarella last week, bringing balance to the universe! Thanks Rachel!

Easy Rider

We had a great new (to us) model Wednesday, Tilli Branner (spelling?) who came with her late 60's motorcycle gear ready to ride cross the USA with Peter Fonda on her chopper. Fantastic job, thanks Tilli!

Return to Moulin Rouge

Debra Haden sparkled last night as a dancer from the Moulin Rouge. She had just finished this costume and was kind enough to share it with us. Thanks Debra!

Back in Black

The inimitable Stacy Walker killed it Wednesday as Black Widow, (with her great arsenal of weapons) bringing our favorite action heroine to life. Stacy says she just threw the costume together, but it sure works! Thanks Stacy!

Klimt and Showgirls

A few weeks back Daniella Traub starred as a great Klimt poster girl, very art nouveau. This past Wednesday Taryn Piana brought her Vegas showgirl best to our little stage. Viva Las Vegas!

Southern Gothic

We had artist/musician Mather Louth (Heathen Apostles, check out her band on youtube, very cool) posing a few weeks back with a great multi-layered costume that was hard to capture even at an hour per drawing! Thanks Mather, great job.

War and Peace

A couple from the last few weeks, Laura Napoli starred as our peaceful Renaissance gal, and last Wednesday was Catherine Weiss as a dangerous wilding warrior. Thanks ladies!

Anime Swordplay

We had a great new model last night, Kat Thavornkant. She makes her own amazing cosplay costumes complete with all the bells and whistles. And swords. And cat ears. ( I can't remember what the character name is for this costume, but it looked great!) Thanks Kat!

Songstress

The lovely Aryiel Hartman was our lounge/jazz singer last week, lots of black on black with sparkles and feather boa. It was Aryiel's first time here, hope to have her back soon, thanks Aryiel!
