I always love to join a zoom drawing session from the BSC.
The Berlin Strippers’ Collective is a wonderful resource for folks who do life drawing, both remotely and IRL. Although my health has limited my attendance, I had to make this session with co-founder Suki, who created a concept to honor the history of the AAPI showgirls of San Francisco’s Forbidden City Nightclub and Cabaret.

Such a gorgeous feel to this session!
I love the red fabric fans! Suki’s insta is here.
Thank you so much for the history and the inspiration, Suki!
Happy International Sex Worker’s Day to all, and don’t forget to visit the BSC pages to see how Covid has affected strippers, among other sex work industries. You can also visit Suki’s fan site here π
I am incredibly grateful to myΒ Patreon Patrons, whose monthly financial support makes it possible for me work safely at home, documenting Berlin performers and sex workers.
Last night GodXXX Noirphiles performed live at Maxim Gorki Theater!
I so much admire GodXXX, and I am always so thrilled to see him perform.
As you can see, I used actual wire to represent their silver neck ornament!
