hei guys
so I am back from Tarja concert in Vienna - and I can tell you: IT WAS AWESOME!!! *__* (except Tarja ugly orange nail polish XD)
due to my connection to Tarjas crew I had backstage pass and could enter the venue at 13 pm *_* helping to make Mikes drums (he destroyed them at the soundcheck again... -.-) eating with the band, and watching the soundcheck -- just awesome!!!
at the concert i met some awesome friends from all over the world - it was great to see them again <3
yeah about the concert:
support band #1: Cry Excess (from Italy)
well they are a young band making cool heavy metal (and having a hot dancer-girl for the boys XD) - music is quite good but not for opening for Tarja..
support band #2: Hollow Haze
they made almost the same music as CE - but they were hotter boys haha (esp. the keyboarder *_*) - and the guys are niiiice - i talked to them a long time after the concert <3
Ramon the singer will be with Tarja in Zürich and Milano again to sing Phantom of the opera with her >.<
I hope i can make to go to Zürich!
yeeah then it was Tarja time!!! Unfortunately she was not wearing the awesome mask :( but she had a freaking nice new outfit!!
I think this is one of my fav outfits! I so love the belt <3
yeeah it was awesome to hear her new songs Into The Sun and Never Enough. and also the accoustic part was one highlight at the show (I was so crying like allways...pussy me)
well Little Lies seemed a lil powerless to me that concerts but okaaaaay - who cares??
after the concert I met tarja and the band (like allways haha) and also met Daniela and Therese - fuuh girls it was so cool haha
all in all it was an awesome day in Vienna *__*
back home I was so in Tarja-mood so I stared a new Tarja drawing - very different to my old once - it's in Pop-Art style
here you can see a lil video for it:

Never Enough
Into The Sun

Tarja had shoes from Nordenfeldt at her last tour - felt in love with them but they are like 500 euro so nothing for me :(
So guys I will leave for Vienna tomorrow to see Tarjas show there *__* can't wait awwwww I hope she will play Still of the night >.< she just has to!!!! haha

- I hope you like it -
my dear friend Katharina made a fantastic Nightwish art calendar for 2012
it's all handmade in traditional art *__* (soo freaking amazing work!!)
check out her Fb page : Nightwish.Art
she is a great inspiration to me and my own art!
so i hope you like the calendar too
you can order here: Order Calendar
she also had an exhibition in Finland with some awesome guest: Tuomas Holopainen, his mother and Palmen Dimov (Tarjas and Tuomas' teacher at school)
It was a cold day and i was at the hall at about 12 o'clock...there were already two other girls and we became friends (they are as crazy as I am XD)- we didn't want to stay in front of the door all the time so we went to flea market right beside the hall.
after a loooong cold waiting the doors were finally open at 7 o'clock - we were the first inside so we were front row in the middle :D jep we are cool hehe
Anneke van Giersbergen was the support artist for WT - she made a great show!! I also met her after the concert *_* she is such a lovely person <3 <3 I really like her and her music :)
When Within Temptation entered the stage with "Shot in the dark" it was just like WOOOOW!!
Sharon has such a great charisma - and her voice was perfect!!
I love how they used the big screens to show videos for every song during the show - it looked so amazing!
one of the highlights of the show was Sharons duett with Anneke: Fire & ice
onother Highlight was of course "Mother Earth" cause Sharon uses to dance during the instrumental part *__* i just looove her dancing, doing these amazing moves with her hand <3
The show ended with "Starway to the skies" one of my fav song from the new album.
All in all it was a fantastic evening! And I hope to see WT again live!
After the gig we were waiting outside to meet Sharon - it was fucking cold - and after 2 hours someone told us. "Well she's gone right after the show" (but we met the boys)
We were pissed...most that noone could tell us earlier :(
Krypteria in Aschaffenburg (25.11)
the next day I was at the Krypteria gig in Aschaffenburg (didn't slept during the night)
it was just a little venue but beautiful
The support band Tri State Corner gave their best to make us rocking - they were funny made jokes and played great music! unfortunately there were not many people in the hall at that time :(
but when it was Krypteria time it was fuller :)
And Oh Hell Ji-In has such a pooower and she is so funny XD i really enjoyed that show! the setlist was great they were playing 21 songs!!!
Ji-In performed "Liberatio" on her own at the piano *_* magic moment!
I was really happy to be part of that gig :D
After the show the band came out immediately!!! signing stuff and talking to the fans - fantastic! (and drinking beer XD)
i talked to Ji-In a long time (she is so little and so funny!!) and when i gave her my "Queens of Metal"-drawing she was like: "oh my goooood thats so cool!! can i show it to the boys???"
me:" thank youuuu! of course you can!!"
she: running around in the hall to find the guys and to show them :) (<--- so sweeeet)
then she signed it of course :)
after like 1 hour talking to them i went to the station to wait for my train home (4 hours waiting --> second night without sleep)
My 3. concert was "A Night With Liv Kristine" in Nagold (02.12)
I thought it would be an accoustic gig of Liv...but I was wroooong XD
Well when i came in the hall there were some tables with chairs around and I was: O.o okaay what is that
It was a concert where you could eat during the show!! I've never been to sth like that before but it was nice.
So me and two friends from Holland took a table right next to the stage :)
Livs support singer was a girl calles Selina who sang some cover versions - she has a really nice voice and it was perfect to open the evening.
When Liv entered the stage she started with "Over the moon" an amazing song! Everyone was cheering for her and she was very happy.
my Highlight of the show was when she sang "Fake A Smile" one of my fav songs by her and also the accoustic version of the Leaves Eyes songs "To France" "Velvet heart" and "Scarborough Fair"
(Her bass player- JB from Leaves Eyes - can bang his head to every fucking song <3)
Liv also came out right after the show! (i love it when i don't have to wait for the artists hehe)
She was so happy to see us 3 guys (and she loves my new hair color - blond) XD she also signed my "QOM"-drawing. and told me that they will maybe make some more shows like that!! (i hope for one near my town)
Livs show was the last concert for me this year - i think a perfect end!
now some different stuff XD
maybe you know Tarjas new song "Outlanders" if not you listen to it NOW!! XD Outlanders
and read about it here: About Outlanders
it's a song inspired by the author Paulo Coelho (I love his work)
and I decided to make a album cover for it :D
mine is inspired by his book "O Alquimista"
okaaaay I was so shocked - fucking positive shocked- when i saw the new Harus promo pics today *__*
they are soooooo amazing - as amazing as the first two!!!
the red dress fits Tarja perfectly wooow she looks like a Diva - well okay she is a Diva :) <3 love her!!!
and today I finished another Tarja drawing ... did the most of it at school in math class^^° (it was really boring so i just had to draw XD) Come To Me
as you maybe know there was the premiere of Nightwish's new single Storytime at finnish radio today *_*
IT JUST SOUNDS SO AMAZING!!!!! I listen to it all day long now XD
woow i can't wait to go to a concert and rock this song liiiive!! \m/
I have the lyrics for you here:
It was the night before
Went all through the world
No words, no dreams - then, one day
A writer by a fire
Imagine all of Gaia
Took a journey into a childless heart
A painter on the shore
Imagine all the world
Within a snowflake or his heart
A friend of poetry, of countless operas
Get it in, falling back into the stars
I am the voice from never never land
The innocence that reached from every man
I am the empty grave of Peter Pan
A silent kite against a blue blue sky
Every chimney every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real
Every memory that you hold dear
I am the journey
I am the destination
I am the whole mad tale that reads you
Away to teach the night-feelers to fly
Follow the madness, lad, if you know a thing
Imaginarium, a dream emporium
Caress the tales and they will be
A story teller's game
With that he flicks the gate
He calls and follows a limitless journey for dreams
I am the voice from never never land
The innocence that reached from every man
I am the empty grave of Peter Pan
A silent kite against a blue blue sky
Every chimney every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real
Every memory that you hold dear
I am the voice from never never land
The innocence that reached from every man
Searching heavens for another hand
Never land
Innocence
Dreams are everywhere
Never land
Innocence
Every man
Peter Pan
I am the voice from never never land
The innocence that reached from every man
I am the empty grave of Peter Pan
A silent kite against a blue blue sky
Every chimney every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real
Every memory that you hold dear
Unfortunately all the videos on youtube are blocked for germany :( but I have it on my pc of course hehe - one of my friends was quick in download it!
Now I want friday to come so i can buy the CD *__* yeeeeeeaaaah!!!
as you can see in my latest posts I try some new drawing techniques at the moment :)
this weekend I made a "minimal" drawing of Tarja, means: only eyes, nose and mouth are drawn without shading
that is kinda hard - I drew the whole portrait first and erased the parst i didn't need
all in all that's how it looks:
I think it turned out quite good :D
I uses ordinary pencil and drew it in my cool Marimekko sketch book <3 <3 love it - the paper is great!!!
damdamdaaaam i did two little Tarja doodles yesterday and today!!! I used Aquarelle pencil :)
this one is my version of the Harus promo pic *__*
and another very very coloful haha cause I wanted to do these splashes again!! looove the splashes <3
these are so different to what i usually do - but it was a looooot of fun >.<~♥
If you like them check out my DeviantArt gallerie ;) My DeviantArt

It's my gannys 70th birthday tomorrow!!! that means:
food, food, more food, cakes, cakes, moooore cakes, and more fooooood!! *happy*
I starved the last week just to be hungry enough to taste everything at the party muhahaha
of course I have a b-day present for my granny
it's a drawing from her where she was younger
My grandma told me that the colours were:
white dress with blue gloves a blue loop, silver shoes and a silver handbag (and the dress is good decollete for having a nice dance hehe)
cause the original photo is in black and white of course (looong time ago = no colour photos)
my granda uses to say: "she was the most beautiful girl at the ball" - everytime we talk about that pic *_* it's so nice from him to say that after all the years they are together now. isn't it?
I hope I could bring a bit from past times to present for my granny :) and that she is happy with it
Virginie Goncalves (Kells)
Simone Simons (Epica)
Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation)
Tarja Turunen ( ex-Nightwish <-- for those who not know)
Liv Kristine (Leaves' Eyes, ex- Theatre of Tragedy)
Anette Olzon (Nightwish)
Ji-In Cho (Krypteria)
Floor Jansen (ReVamp, ex-After Forever)
It took me like 2 weeks all in all (with some biiiig breaks in between)
I was sick for the last 3 days .. not much fun..
but sometimes being sick is also kinda helpful even for my drawings they grow and grow *happy*
I went on with the Queens of Metal drawing:
Tarja looks like Tarja now and is almost done - and today I did the sketch for Liv Kristine (I'm really afraid of drawing her cause i did it twice and every try looks so really really creepy - so this time she has to look good)
i also tried a "new" drawing methode - well for me it is new -
I only own Aquarell-pencil but now I use them like aquarell-colours means:
I draw on a scribbling paper a blob of the colour i wanna use, then i put the brush into water and absorb the colour with it - so you can use the pencil almost like normal aquarell colours :)
here you can see how far it is now:
I'm kinda happy with the results so far :D
hope you too ;)
