(known as Sherin L’Artiste) is a renowned Hamburg-based artist, illustrator, and live sketch artist. Her extraordinary works combine Far Eastern ink techniques with fashion, burlesque, mythology, and sociocritical themes surrounding identity, role-play, and gender discourse.
Artistic Philosophy: Alice in Wonderland & Aesthetics
"My works are a contemplation of contemporary trends and a homage to beauty and diversity."
Like Alice in Wonderland (Lewis Carroll), Sherin P. Spielmann perceives the world as a universe with its own laws. With curiosity and an open mind, she explores fashion as an expression of personality, fairy tales and archetypes, eroticism, and social role models.
Unique Technique: Chinese Ink & Wood-Carved Drawing
Her fine, graphic signature style is created through a highly specific material and painting technique:
- Pointed Wood & Ink: Instead of classic nibs, she uses pointed woods of varying density (e.g., balsa or spruce) for spontaneous, irrevocable linework inspired by Chinese ink painting.
- Multi-layered Acrylic Glazes: Larger color areas are created in up to 10 glazing layers, giving the images an expressive depth and texture.
Sherin L’Artiste: Live Drawing, Event Art & Social Commitment
In 1994, after successful years as an illustrator and designer in fashion capitals, the artist returned to Hamburg and founded her studio for fine and applied arts. Under the name Sherin L’Artiste, she is a sought-after live sketch artist and portraitist at exclusive events and burlesque shows. Furthermore, as a committed artist, she supports the organization intact e.V. for the protection of girls.
