Lars : "Mrs. Peel - we're needed!"

Once again Emma Peel (Diana Rigg), now together with John Steed (Patrick Macnee). I was just in the mood for some more "Avengers"-stuff. So I portrayed this unforgettable and charming agent-duo in black and white.
Enjoy and have a nice hot weekend, folks!

Matthias : Odysseus!






Matthias is on a little odyssey a the moment, so I'm posting for him.

I can only guess what the artist wants to tell us with this picture, but it's definatley in the tradition of the German romantics. I would even dare to say there's a little nod to Caspar David Friedrich recognisable. The sea as a symbol of the longing for the faraway. The person from behind. Maybe Odysseus is missing his sheep?

3 Stifte für 3 Engel


A little peep at my sketch-book... While searching for the perfect drawing-device, this three cold blooded beauties find their way out of my hand... a direct repro of the sketch - maybe I'll post some digital enhancements these days...

Bilderwumme High School


If you are too shy to sketch people in a cafe or at a public place you only have to google a nice group photograph of an nostalgic grade of school.
Here is my result of a rough scribble activity...

Matthias: Was dunkles


Tja, noch immer keine Fortsetzung der Deckel-Geschichte. Leider. Hoffe, sie kommt noch. Stattdessen was schön schwarzes. Könnte auch gut zu Lovecraft passen ...

Michael: Out Of The Blue

Michael Mantel fütr die Bilderwumme Ausstellung Kunst Gem&aumllde Bild groß Elefant Wellenreiten Surfen Himmel blau Welle Wasser

The original size of this image is 100x80 cm! It is painted with acrylic on canvas. I made three of those tableaus for an art exhibition in hamburg that is taking place on june 1st. Unfortunately it is a little out of place now, for it is more an illustration than classical art. Due to this, "The Bilderwumme" is now my showroom

UNDER CONSTRUCTION!







We are doing some updates and are changing to the new blogger ... finally.

So if the layout is a little bit mashed up: Don't worry!

PS: I did this picture completely analogue with marker and brush pen!

Lars : another funny robot

This tinny guy got lost on a space mission. He's alone now on a small and unpleasant moon with nobody at all to point his radiation weapon at, which makes him very angry.

Enjoy and have a nice weekend!

Michael : Go for gold!

Michael Mantel für die Bilderwumme Illustratoren Corinna Hein Jahreskalender 2009 Banditen Goldraub Ausbruch Agent Verfolgungsjagd

This is a self-promoting illustration that I created for the annual calendar of “Die Illustratoren”. It’s part of a new style I created over the last year, especially for editorial purposes.

Meet The Beetle


Every first of may "beetle-maniacs" and "classic Volkswagen enthusiasts" from germany and all over europe come together joining the "Maikäfertreffen" on Hannovers "Messegelände". I had the pleasure to be there, listening to a concert of the typical "Boxersound" and taking a close look to all the fantastic details, shapes, styles and tunings. For all who cares, here's a small visual impression of the show last week.


Ride on!

Lars : a sow and a goddess

...sometimes even a pig might feel attracted by a stylish classic automobile and a fast ride.

(Maybe you remember: DS = déesse = goddess)

This picture is based on a sketch I dedicated to a fan with an affinity to pigs.

So enjoy and have a nice relaxed weekend!

Olf : Space Age Pop Cartoon Cheers!







"And now for something completely different."

I've been trying out a lot of things recently. This is one of the efforts. Sophisticated 60s space age pop cartoon style in stereovision.

Thies : 3 Years of Bilderwumme!

3 Years! Nearly forgotten! It is time to reminisce about the good old times with our cave-paintings, messages in the bottles and smoke signals... a good opportunity to look back into the deep and chaotic Bilderwumme archive.

...and you can believe in this two unerring bloginspectors!

Edit:
So, mit Fehlern drin geht ja mal gar nicht. Hier also die korrigierte Fassung.

Thies : Pictoplasma 2009


Tired but happy after those days... with a lot of inspiration, weirdness and fun in Berlin ( incl. bull riding, bumper car and Snake Plissken )... If you are in Berlin untill the 3th May you can visit the exhibition Pictopia in the "Haus der Kulturen der Welt" (the so-called "pregnant oyster").

I got this idea during our recent "Bilderwumme Drawing Night", which had the issue "Retro Science Fiction". Click on the image to get a much better impression.

Lars : Emma Peel

Arte is showing "The Avengers" every Monday till Friday at 5:40 pm and I'm watching this stylish sixties serial with great enthusiasm. So it was time for me to try some "Emma Peel"-stuff. I switched on and off some layers and got four versions in the end and couldn't decide anymore wich one looks better. Here you see two of them.

I hope you enjoy.
By the way: I find the German title "Mit Schirm, Charme und Melone" quite more appealing than the original one.

Thies : Like A Rolling Donut


This is the coloured version of a "Bilderwumme Drawing Night" Scribble.
