The lyrics in the background are from "The Ballad of Mack the Knife," in the musical "The Threepenny Opera" by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill.

The lyrics are from Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit," but I had Patti Smith's cover in mind when I made this piece.
Lestat, Louis, and Armand, all as variations of Pierrot. Done with Molotow and Posca paint pens, and color pencil.
Lestat's costume is mostly based on the painting of Pierrot by Jean-Antoine Watteu in 1718. Louis' Pierrot is based on the costume worn by Jean-Charles Deburau, as photographed by Nadar in the 1850s. Despite being the oldest vampire, Armand's costume is the most contemporary, as it's based on the 1975 film "The Adventures of Buratino." This is because Armand is a Theater Nerd (Lestat is a Theater Gay, there is a difference) and he thinks that outfit is the most inventive.

The text in this image comes the from the traditional ballad "O Love is Teasing."
My favorite version of it is this one, by Rhiannon Giddens

playing around with a more stylized approach
The text in this image is from the song "Pirate Jenny" by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, from the musical "The Threepenny Opera."
My favorite version is this one, by Shilpa Ray, Nick Cave, and Warren Ellis.
(This song is on the Claudia playlist that I have created. I might have created playlists for all the main characters in IWTV.)
