Clara de Noche by Ron Salas

Sorry, I've been neglecting my Twartian duties lately. I'm going to get John Carter in 'cause he's ca character I've been waiting to do since we started this thing.
Done with markers and a dash of Photoshop.

CLARA de NOCHE by Nathan Fairbairn

I knew as soon as Mike told us that this week's twart would be Clara de Noche that my piece would feature her and her son, Pablito. Their relationship is the only one of any value in any of the Clara stories I've ever read. It's what saves the strip from being pure objectification. It brings some humanity to the character.

This was supposed to be much more involved, with a crowd of drooling jerks in the background ogling Clara, but I got laz ... er ... I felt the piece didn't need it.

CLARA de NOCHE - by Dan McDaid

So... Yeah.

CLARA de NOCHE by Andy Kuhn

Unfortunately this week got away from me.

I wanted to do a nicer version of this

Clara de Noche piece, but I ran out of time.

Instead I gussied up my sketch with a little photoshop.

Once I get the finished version done i'll post it as well.

Thanks for looking.

CLARA DE NOCHE by Mr. Hawthorne

YAY! It's my week to pick and I chose a...hooker! Hope you're all cool with that ;)

Anyway, I feel I should set this piece up. It's a nod to a strip by Bernet where Clara, and her friend Virgina, are walking around town and finding grafitti proclaiming the writer's love for Clara. Virgina thinks it's romantic, but Clara finds this very annoying. That is till they come across one message that says "Clara! Price is no object", to which she responds "Now, THERE'S a man that can write.".

Here's the strip-

(This strip was translated into English in the book "The Art of Jordi Bernet")

So, basically mine says "Clara, price is STILL no object". Meaning, you STILL got it Clara - and Mr. Bernet. ;)

Hope you dig it.

here's my clara. it probably owes more to jack cole than jordi bernet. not sure how successful it is at either.

Clara de Noche by Steve Bryant

Kudos to Mike for picking Clara! I was completely unfamiliar with the character, so it was a pleasant learning experience — any time I'm introduced to more work by Jordi Bernet is a good thing!

I know that Clara was based on Bettie Page, but since I included Betty (Cliff Secord's girlfriend, also based on Miss Page) in my Rocketeer Twart, I wanted to change up the facial structure for this one and went with a more heart-shaped face. Hopefully, the character still comes through.

Clara de Noche by Chris Samnee

Afraid I've only time for another quickie this week... but I'm sure Clara is pretty used to that by now ;)
If you're fluent in French you can get all of the beautiful, hilarious and definitely not all ages albums of Jordi Bernet's Clara de Noche here.

There was also an English language "Best Of" volume, put out by Auad Publishing, a few years back that is unfortunately out of print now.
Here's hoping we'll all be lucky enough to get some more English language volumes soon.

Not as much planning went into this one as much I would have liked (especially considering how much I love Bernet's CLARA DE NOCHE books) but I wanted to put something up since it's Tuesday evening already :P
Hope you guys dig it the same :)

Cheers,
Francesco
