Jo Pollux and Sadie Lune at Ludwig July 9 2019 by Suzanne ForbesSUCH a beautiful party for the official release of the gorgeous coffee table book of photographs by Jo Pollux and text by Sadie Lune.

It was held at cherished all-inclusive queer art gallery/bar/clubhouse Ludwig Berlin  in Neukölln, and featured the artist and her muses! The book showcases Jo’s Film Noir aesthetic and Sadie’s dark prose. In attendance were models from the book, including Sadie, Bishop Black, Manon, Finn Peaks, and more.

Mamas AfroDisiac and Axel Karlsson Rixon at Ludwig June 20 2019 by Suzanne ForbesThere was a wonderful crowd of queer Berliners, plus visitors from all over.

Above, visiting Mama’s Afrodisiac and European local Axel Karlsson Rixon, a supernaturally attractive pair!

Finn Peaks at Ludwig June 20 2019 by Suzanne ForbesThere were performances, including this one by Finn Peaks.

Finn had pink eye makeup on making him look even more like Anne Carlisle in Liquid Sky!

And afterwards the crowd retired to the back room to witness à la carte acts of dominant play by Sadie, always a huge hit.

My live-drawing of queer Berlin’s art scene is courtesy of my Patrons on Patreon whose monthly financial support allows me to make this free art available! You can help for as little as a dollar/euro a month.

I’m working on some more drawings from the back room, but since they are sensual and involve passionate interactive I am not creating them for my Patreon. You will be able to find them on my other website, the one with my name, soon 🙂

Embroidered Bear Pride Flag Berlin Bear!

Is this my most adorable Pride project ever?

Last Fall, a Patron gifted me a collection of vintage embroidery hoops, including some that were very old. One had a type of closure I’d never seen before. Instead of the usual screw to ratchet the outer hoop looser, you press down on the brass bar. This opens the hoop at the dovetailed joint. Fascinating, right?

It reminded me of the kind of old brass bar taps you see in an ancient Berlin gay bar, when you’re sitting at the bar drawing.

My plan is to gift it to a Berlin bear bar!

The boots are made of gold leather salvaged from a pair of gold booty shorts left behind by Miss Natasha Enquist when she left Berlin.

Always be makin’! Here’s me and Suzanne Wegh sitting in the air-conditioned library before we began our day of embroidering, sewing and drawing. It was 101 degrees in Berlin today!

A friend recently said we should refer to ourselves as “TwoZanne” when working like this. Awesome, right???
