INSPIRATION: Linsner's Dawn

  
New Articles

 Joseph Michael Linsner’s Dawn I’ve been a huge fan of Linsner’s character Dawn for many years.

Dawn is the goddess of birth and re-birth and basically a badass goddess who meddles in the affairs of gods and humans.

She also styles her hair over one eye in a peek-a-boo style and perpetually has a 3 tears design below the exposed left eye.

I can’t say that she is extensively inspired by Veronica Lake (despite that iconic hair-do) and I feel Linsner is a far better artist than someone who would just copy iconic poses from photo-shoots directly, making the inspiration obvious.

I did spot this one article where Linsner actually mention’s Lake amoung the influences for Dawn..

"JML: Dawn is a mixture of everything I love about women. Certain classic movie stars have been strong influences, like Ann Margrett, Marilyn Monroe, Kim Novak, Veronica Lake, Sophia Loren, Grace Kelly, but the biggest influences have been the women around me.

I am enraptured by feminine beauty. Dawn is my tribute to its glory and mystery."
