The Art Of A Peel is a short but fascinating clip from the Lisa Whitmer Burlesque documentary 'No Strings Attached.'

"Bursting with sex appeal and kitschy charm, No Strings Attached is a playful romp through the world of burlesque, from its origins in the late nineteenth century to its contemporary revival. The film provides a peek through feathers and glitter at the Scenic Sisters, a San Francisco duo, as they prepare for the annual, international Tease-o-Rama convention..."

The Art Of Santiago

2010-02-17T13:33:00.004Z

Meet Derek Santiago, a pinup artist & self proclaimed cultural remixer from New York who describes himself as "...a nerdy kid too shy, socially awkward, and pathetically nervous to talk to pretty girls. So instead, I painted them." And boy can he paint them! Mixing a variety of styles and techniques his art is reminiscent of old propaganda posters and oozes Latin American sexiness, but always manages to retain a uniqueness that is startling. View his fabulous work over at Riceandbeanz.
