Happy Friday

Creature Magazine was kind enough to give me a spot on fridays to wish you a happy friday.
But there are many other wonderful illustrators posting as well. Give it a look. Here are some that have been posted and others that might.

So it goes without saying. Enjoy the weekend.

Month of May

I took off the month of May and went traveling with Jessica. Our journey was full of beautiful sights and interesting people, but also days of strange toilet situations and the desperate search for cheap food. Here is some documentation of my wanderings

Nice, France

 Because we were traveling on a budget most of our meals consisted of some kind of bread and cheese. I really like Supermarkets in other countries, it is always a surprise to find out what you actually bought compared to what you thought you did.

Marseille, France

We encountered some high speed winds in Marseille, the seagulls had some trouble flying. 

On the train again.

 Montpellier, France

By far the cutest french city I have been in.

Sitting in the park.

Barcelona, Spain

Sleeping in rooms with multiple people you end up having interesting roommates.

Coffee and drawing

Madrid, Spain

Our hostel was a part of a historical building and had the most amazing common room

Love tappas

Paris, France

Saw all the sites with all the thousands of other tourist

nap.

 

Versaille was impressive. We took a break to paint in Marie Antoinette's Estate, which was kind of ridiculous if you thought about it. 

Amsterdam, Holland

Last stop,  and the cutest city. I picked up bed bugs from Paris but I still really enjoyed it.

Venezia

As pregame to next month I spent four days in Venice, Italy. It was nice to have some sun and days to draw the city. The whole city is on water sort of and connected by canals and small ally ways. It was strange not to see any cars or bikes. I really loved all the old building that are falling apart and potentially sinking.

My favorite part of my trip was Burano, An island a bit away from Venice. It was full of brightly colored houses, canals and lace shops (that is their specialty). Oh and men in striped shirts steering boats are real. They even wear the hats (but maybe just for the sake of the tourist).

Doppelgänger

Fumetto is up and running. By an unfortunate error my name was misspelled, so for those who were looking for my work you can find me under "Danielle Bürle" or "Danielle Buerle" at the Rössligasse 12 with Kornel Stadler and Jonas Baumann. I dropped by yesterday and it looks great. So if it starts looking like this you are in the right direction.

Post and Print

With the Fumetto Comicbook Festival around the corner, I got my prints ready. I am really happy with the result.

Also Ragehaus has posted a wonderful spot about Lost at Sea. They are great site to read anyways so I suggest you check it out.

Mastered

For months I have been slipping in little pictures from my master thesis. For my project I wrote and illustrated a story entitled Lost at Sea about three strangers who are connected by a traumatic event on a whale watching boat. Well, now there is a legit website where you can read and see more about it.

Also, the Master program has been kind enough to organize something together with the Fumetto Comic Book Festival and my Lost at Sea project along with work from Kornel Stadler and Jonas Baumann will be shown in a satellite gallery in the Rössligasse 12. 
Offical Fumetto Website
There will be 7 prints available. Some are unreleased so come take a look. In good spirits here is one of them.
