Schema interviewsJillian Tamaki's sketchbook | Sex and the City illustrations for EW
Sex and the City: The Movie is generating a buzz that's eliciting all sorts of gushes and sighs out of women everywhere who loved, loved, loved the show. Will it be fabulous? Let's hope so, even though, really, the series finale was sufficient and lovely. But...can Charlotte's daughter be any cuter (her pic under the cut)? Her solemn little face when Carrie tells her there's no such thing as happy endings can make any woman's womb rumble.
Sex and the City (SATC)'s fifth lady is, of course, the city of New York, yet it's Canadian artist JILLIAN TAMAKI who has captured the essence of SATC in her series of illustrations for Entertainment Weekly's 'Sex and the City': Six Ways of Looking at Carrie = Feminist icon? Role model? Manthrax? A half-dozen writers -- including ''Sex'' producer Cindy Chupack, social critic Camille Paglia, journalist Michael Musto (here).
Jillian Tamaki, originally from Calgary (and hapa Japanese), currently lives in Brooklyn, NY, and teaches in the Illustration Department of the New School. The graphic novel SKIM, made with her cousin Mariko Tamaki, was published in March 2008. Go buy it!
