Friday Sketchpost: Kamingespräch at ESCP Europe
Last week I attended a "Kamingespräch" (or "fireside chat"*) organized by the ESCP Europe business school in Berlin-Charlottenburg. The ESCP and their participants let me draw their faces and take a couple notes during the event, which I present to you below. Happy Friday!

Clairikine Hits Lyon - Part 2 of 4
* Frank Underwood: "You've got quite a long list of hobbies."
I have very patient friends, bless them. (Also, did I mention I've seen Fury Road three times this summer? Best 26€ I ever spent.)

Clairikine Hits Lyon - Part 1 of 4
Hey folks! For the next month I will be posting pages from my new travel comic Clairikine Hits Lyon, which I drew during my week-long visit back in August. A new instalment will be posted every week. Enjoy!

Analog Living
I don't always go a week without Internet at the house, but when I do, I flip my lid.
Remember this drawing about the woods? It is now a postcard that is available in my Bigcartel store! Along with many fine comics.
Also - do you live in Berlin? Want to get pointers on making your own comic? Want to chill in a fine Neukölln location while doing so? Then I cordially invite you to my next comics workshop (in English!) on Saturday, October 24 at raum B. Let's make comics together!

Le chemin du retour...
Ça fait du bien de rentrer au pays quand même! (Libre à vous de décider dans quelle direction.) Merci à ceux et celles qui m'ont accueillie quelques jours à Lyon, payé des coups à boire et sponsorisé des pétages de bide.
* It does a person good to go home from time to time! (You get to choose in which direction that might be.) Thanks to everyone who housed me for a few days in Lyon, bought me drinks and sponsored my food comas.

Fact vs. Fiction
Good news! There are actually many things one can do about the world being a bad place sometimes, even if feelings of helplessness won't tell you that.
Very specifically, if you live in Berlin, Finding Berlin has a good list (in English!) of ways to help refugees currently seeking asylum in our city. It may feel daunting, or it may not seem like much, but a little goes a very long way.
I myself am currently in France, where it is a pleasant not-above-27 degrees, and will catch you all on the flipside (i.e. next week).

Home vs. Office
It's too hot! Hot dang! Call the police and the etc.
I'm going to go continue melting in France for a bit later this week. Stay cool!

The cycle
You can tell I penciled this last winter, because it's too muggy these days to wear long sleeves in public transit.

Speaking of bridges, I was interviewed recently by Odile for Die Berliner Portraits and it partly involved that bridge on the bottom left! The transcript is exclusively in German, I'm afraid, but you get to see a great photo of me in front of the Oberbaumbrücke, which is one of my favorite locations in Berlin.
Also, it's Bastille day, so: happy 14th of July. I am spending it at a) the hair salon b) band practice c) a bar d) all of the above.

Friday Sketchpost: Berlin Pride + Fanart!
Every month for the past few months now I've been putting together pages from my sketchbooks in a PDF and posting it on Patreon. This forces me to draw more in my sketchbook, which has been priceless in terms of improving anatomy and inking skills (especially with the Pentel pocket brush pen, which I have grown more attached to the further I get used to it).
I've fallen off the wagon in terms of posting occasional scanned pages on this blog, though, so here are some sketches of people I did during Berlin's Pride week last month, as well as fanart of recent entertainment interests Breaking Bad (currently on season 4) and Spider-Gwen (which kicks so much heinie)!
You can also see these and many more in my latest digital sketchbook, which is available for pledges of $8 or more per week on Patreon!

Ceiling Head
The transition to mainly working from home this month was pretty brutal! I have since switched to coworking away from home as much as possible.

Desert
I've had deserts on the brain lately: deserts where chem teachers cook meth, deserts that get driven through by postapocalyptic death rigs, deserts irrigated by humans who now face severe drought. So I drew this and played around with colors again.
Oh, by the way - the new Mad Max? I finally went to see it, and it melted my face off. In a good way.
