Thread: Fan dance pictures please!

Hi girlies,

After months of asking my very artist boyfriend to bring home some artwork to put up in the hall I have decided to take matters into my own hands and draw something myself (I'm ok at art too but nothing compared to him). I want to create a pencil and pen drawing of a fan dance with lots of movement. I've been inspired at burlesque shows but find it difficult to recreate these beautiful poses and movements on the paper from my head (maybe I shouldn't drink so much while I'm there!). I've trawled the internet search engines but found static poses and head shots but I'd love a full body preferably with movement . I'm hoping to use a few pictures to get the desired look I want.

If any of you think you have images (on your websites etc) that could be helpful and you wouldn't mind me using please let me know.

Thanks, if it gets done I'll post it for you to see xxx

Hi Suzistar,

If you go to my Flickr page (link on my signature) there should be a good few fan dance pics in there of Lilly de Lure, Amelie Soliel, Gilda Lilly and a few others to boot.

If they aren't quite what you are looking for, Hettie Heartache's shots are work a look through too.

In fact Flickr should be a great place to have a scoot round in, and see what you can find. There are a good few Burlesque groups, so I'm sure you'll find something useful.

Hope this is of some help!

There are around photos from around the world of burlesque feather fan imagery collected there...

The Sugar Blue Burlesque in Western Australia have some great shots
