Dark with a Happy Twist
a conversation with Ellen Von Unwerth

by Robert Enright

"I love all the old pictures--of spanking and Bettie Page and corsets. But you can't do spanking in fashion, so I wanted to do a project where I could really let go and get girls who also love those things. I thought it would be even more sexy when there was a story to go with it, so it wasn't that difficult to write a little storyboard.

"I had chapters, so there were 10 drawings in total. Each girl had a character and I used the storyboard to explain the story to the girls. But there was still freedom to play." -- Ellen Von Unwerth
