My Rotten Blog

This week's ComicTwart selection, courtesy of Mike Hawthorne, is the prototypical hooker with a heart of gold - Clara de Noche.

For those unfamiliar with Clara, she is the creation of Spanish Illustrator Jordi Bernet. She was modeled after Bettie Page and her adventures were extremely erotic but funny and humane at the same time. For more information on Clara and other work by Bernet, I highly recommend the book "BERNET" from Auad publishing. You can get it at Amazon.com.

This piece came together very quickly for me. I was surprised how it went from an idea to a finished piece in such a short time. For whatever reason the idea hit me to put Clara at the zoo, in front of a black panther pen. I waned to try and emulate Bernet's style but not ape it. I tried to really free my hand up and just draw and brush this without trying to be too precise. Overall I am very happy with this one.

One thing though, I have no idea if the Italian on the sign is correct. Anyone that knows for sure, let me know.
