Jean Kluge

Jean Kluge is a well-known and highly praised fan artist.
Kluge also created art using the name M. Margaret O'Shea and Mary Margaret O'Shea. 
She's been active in many fandoms, but is probably best known for her artwork in Star Trek, Star Trek: The Next Generation, The Professionals, and The Sentinel. 
Her art has been on the cover of many zines, sold as originals and prints at conventions, and later on the Internet, and recently, sold as t-shirt transfers. Her Star Trek: TNG illo, "The Quest," was used as the cover of the popular book, Textual Poachers.
Kluge is also a writer. Two of her most well-known zines, are the Sentinel novel, Changes. 
She also wrote and illustrated (along with Marty Siegrist), the Star Trek: TNG Data/Tasha novel, Pulse of the Machine. Kluge included "Ensign Maggie O'Shea" (a red-haired, feisty baseball player) as one of the original characters that zine.
In 2017, Suzan Lovett credited Kluge's influence on her own art and style: 
==Awards==
* Fan Q Award (1989, 1990, 1992, 2003, 2012)
* Friscon Award for "Have You Hugged Your Guide Today?" (Favorite Portrait) (1998)
* Golden Guppy Award (1999, 2000)
* Huggy Award (1999, 2001, 2003, 2007)
* Screwz Award (2004)
==Con Guest==
Kluge was a guest of honor at CONtinuum (1991).
==Acafandom Book Covers==
One of Kluge's Star Trek: The Next Generation drawings is the cover of Textual Poachers, by Henry Jenkins.
In 1995, Jenkins told fans about how he'd wanted to get Kluge's art on his book, Science Fiction Audiences: Watching Star Trek and Doctor Who, but got push back from his publisher. After finally agreeing to have her fanart on the cover, she had a month's deadline to complete it. Kluge was so much in demand that this turn around was too tight.
Jenkins later commented that Kluge's artwork "went up in value within the art hierarchy of fandom because it was associated with the book." He said:

==Profit and Value==
During the 1980s and 90s, Kluge's art, like Suzie Lovett and a few other artists, often went for hundreds of dollars at art auctions at conventions, leading to conversations about why it was considered wrong for fan writers and fan publishers to profit from their work, but all right for fannish artists to profit from their work. See letter of comment submitted to the The Hatstand Express on the topic.
In Jun 19, 2001 created the Yahoo!Groups to update fans about art for sale. "This is an announcement list to notify you of changes to Jean Kluge's website and when new art or special sales are available. This artwork is fandom related. SOME OF THE ARTWORK ON JEAN'S PAGE CONTAINS NUDITY." - jfkupdate · Jean Kluge's Webpage Update List 
Profit was also an issue in her 2009 "re-publication" of her Sentinel fanzine Changes in PDF form. More information about the discussion can be found at the "changes" zine here.
==Kluge's Description of Tangling With Agent With Style==
In 2003, Kluge, along with many other fans, described her experiences dealing with Agent With Style, one of the biggest zine publishers and agents of the 1990s-2000s. From Dear Disreputable Zine Publisher:

I bought the original at IDICon in Houston in October of 1988 with only a glimmering of a hope that I could print it... and, thanks to Jean's generosity, I can share it with all of you.

File:powerplay5.jpg|(1989) from Powerplay #5 -- "The Jean Kluge cover is slightly paler/more pastel than the other Lovett covers, but otherwise fits well with the general aesthetic of Powerplay (I wish they had be fantasy themed! That would have been awesome - though perhaps a bit wearing after 7 issues). You can't see it that well on the scan on Fanlore (or perhaps you can, gentle reader, but I didn't) but Blake's eyes are shown behind Avon and I assume his hand is holding up the crystal ball that Avon is being shown in (while the others are shown in crystal balls around Avon? Possibly). Anyway - it's a nice cover - Jean Kluge is very good. I love the Machiavelli Factor cover." from aralias at Deadlier than the Male, Powerplay 4 and 5 (Jan. 24th, 2016)

Blake, holding up a mirror, looks into it to see Servalan-Medusa behind him. And behind *her* is Avon, already turned to stone." from Sarah Thompson at Hermit.org

File:TSChanges.jpg|(1999) from changes -- the artist's description: "The pencil drawing features a central portrait of Jim and Blair smiling at one another as Jim affectionately presses a fist to the side of Blair's neck.

In the border, botanicals and books share space with a black panther curled protectively around a sleeping wolf." from Sentinel Prints 
File:Changes-2.jpg|(1999) from "Have You Hugged Your Guide Today?" changes -- artist's description: "Jim has an arm wrapped around Blair's neck and shoulders from behind, squeezing him in an affectionate hug in this pencil drawing, his chin hooked over Blair's shoulder.

File:Changes-5.jpg|(1999) from "Hidden Visitor" changes -- "A portrait of a clearly unhappy Jim looking over his shoulder at his earnest, well-meaning partner, who is obviously trying to get through to him with his Guide voice.

File:Klugeimmovable.jpg|(unknown date) "Immovable Object" -- Kluge's description: "Jim, the quintessential rock-steady, immovable object (or very nearly) -- strong, stubborn, implacable, incorruptible, protector of the city (and his Guide), but with an undeniable sense of humor that shows up on occasion -- and one color portrait complete this study of the Sentinel who can withstand almost any force." from Sentinel Prints 
File:Klugeirrisistbleblair.jpg|(unknown date) "Irresistible Force" -- Kluge's description: "Companion piece to "The Immovable Object", four b&w portraits of Blair illustrate this puppy-eyed, motormouthed whirlwind of earnest intelligence, enthusiasm, and sheer energy, the only force that can almost always move the Rock Of Ellison. A color portrait of the Guide at his most appealing (wearing his glasses of course!) completes the picture, while a b&w portrait of his adorable grin at the other end of the piece complements the smiling Jim in 'Immovable Object'" from Sentinel Prints 
File:klugebare.jpg|(unknown date) "Bare Blair" -- artist's description: "The piece has a border around it that looks like stucco, with a sun mosaic at each side, and two butterflies breaking from the border into the interior of the piece, and several primitive symbols and designs. The interior shows a warm sun-lit courtyard of terra cotta tiles, with a Peruvian clay pot and a terra cotta pot of geraniums. There are other plants surrounding the main figure, a nude Blair (body is in profile, but his face is turned fully toward the viewer), who is seated on the tiles with his knees drawn up and his arms wrapped around them contentedly, his head laid on his knees. His expression is confident and sweet, with a hint of a smile, and his hair is loose and curly in the south-of-the-border warmth and humidity. His skin tones reflect the sunny setting in warm, tawny hues. (Please note: this piece does contain full male nudity which, while lateral rather than frontal, is still fairly revealing.)" from Sentinel Prints

File:Klugesandburgzone.jpg| (unknown date) "The Sandburg Zone (-Out)" -- the artist's description: "A bare-chested Jim holds himself almost unnaturally still, nearly zoned, as Sandburg, lips pursed in a kiss of sheer tenderness, nears Ellison's jawline, one hand touching the Sentinel's laterals, featherlight, in something very nearly approaching devotion. Blair is wearing a short-sleeved henley shirt." from Sentinel Prints 
===Star Trek: TNG===
File:Vault13-1.jpg|(1988) "Holodeck Fantasy" from Vault of Tomorrow #13, reprinted in color in Pulse of the Machine (2000) -- artist's description: "Whimsical android Science Officer portrait with tiny dragons and faeries." from Media Prints In 1988, Kluge wrote about her Star Trek: TNG story in Vault of Tomorrow #13: "I also did the artwork that accompanies it, and would like to pass on a bit of wisdom that Suzan Lovett and I have both discovered: printing color artwork in black and white is a chancy business. Sometimes it works out wonderfully; most often than not, it doesn't work well at all. Unfortunately, this particular illustration belongs in the latter category. The original won Best of Show by both popular vote and the art show staff at Media West*Con 8—the same illustration printed in black and white looks incredibly awful. Live and learn". from Treklink #14

[...] If you get the chance, find Jean Kluge's "The Quest" at a convention art show near you. I consider it her best). I can't say it enough. This is the best zine for artwork that I have seen in years.[...] Ms. Kluge's work reminds me of Botticelli and Byrne-Jones, with color choice reminiscent of Alma-Tadema, Maxfield Parrish and William Morris." from Where None Have Gone Before 
File:klugerikertherogue.jpg|(1989) "Riker the Rogue" -- "Riker is the quintessential pirate in Jean Kluge's picture; and now that I've seen it in the picture I can see the rogue in him even when I'm watching him on the show! Thanks, Jean, for expressing the insight so well." from Datazine #57 "Jean Kluge has cast Star Trek's Riker as an old-time avenger of the Spanish Main, complete with eye patch, earring, and horse pistols. Her drawing works in part because of a successful blend of symmetry and asymmetry, and because she isn't afraid to repeat shapes and elements. The character meets the reader's gaze almost straight on, but his body is turned only three-quarters of the way towards us, and his head is nearly, but not quite, in the center of the composition. He is enclosed in an oval, dark at the top around his upper body; again pushing the lighter form forward. The lower half of the oval is made up of his own crossed arms in their full, sweeping sleeves. Jean keeps the theme going and keeps things symmetrical by putting a tiny cutlass, treasure cheat, and anchor and canon at the four corners of the portrait. Symmetrical, but not too symmetrical; each of the four elements is slightly different in size and altogether different in shape. The fact that the woman does bloody beautiful work, and knows the difference between being detailed and being busy, doesn't hurt." from Art Forum #2

She is smiling down at him as he gazes up at her in fond interest. The Android is bare-torsoed, while the Security Chief wears a blue shirt and little else. Sweet, endearing pose." from Media Prints -- from a fan: "One of my most favorite pieces is an illustration in Pulse of the Machine, in which Tasha Yar's leapt into Data's arms - the moment is so perfectly captured, so spontaneous feeling, so free. I can't remember off the top of my head if the art was Kluge or Siegrist, but all these years later, I still love that art." quoted anonymously from Zinelist (Nov 30, 2010)

The Science Officer is sitting at a table, wearing overalls over his uniform, and dubiously regarding a plate of food in front of him, while the Sec. Chief stands beside him, an apron over her uniform, grinning as she ladles something presumably ghastly into his bowl. A very silly, fun picture." from Media Prints comments by the artist: "With apologies to Chris Van Allsburg" -- "Data's overalls and Tasha's ruffly-sleeved apron over their Federation-issue uniforms made for a nice, Kluge-esque touch.

And, uh, elsewhere!" "Hubba Hubba! It's gorgeous! Jean, I want you to know I think your art work is fantastic! I am a Luke fan, so you can imagine my reaction when I saw this." "Jean Kluge, whoever you are, you have made the sun come up, and exactly the right time. I had office troubles, and as I was facing a bunch of miserable deskworms, your picture shone in front of my eyes and poof! everything seemed trifling compared to those breathtaking square inches of skin. Thank you." "I would like to give a special bow to Jean Kluge for her wonderful Luke, appearing on the inside front cover, who took my breath away when I saw it for the first time. In fact, it still does that whenever I open my copy. WOW." "Jean really has a stunning sense of anatomy; she's one of my favorite zine illoers." "What can I say? It's almost enough to make a loyal Solo fan like me falter. That's saying a lot!".from an LOC in The Wookiee Commode #6

File:Leavealight.jpg|(2002) cover of Leave a Light On for Me -- This art, titled "Reconciliation," was later pulled by Kluge, from the 2005 reissue by Agent With Style: "I've been told by the editor of Leave A Light On For Me (S/H zine) that she will be pulling my cover from that zine and possibly using it in another zine not carried by AWS, but please note that if you buy the zine from AWS, it will NOT (or *should* not) have my art anywhere in or on it." This decision was due to many issues fans had with AWS.

File:Alien sardonac int by jean kluge.jpg|(1991) from Sardonac (Alien Nation) --"Jean Kluge's beautiful illo was, fortunately, screened before printing, but, knowing Jean's work, I can only wonder what the original must be like. This reproduction method (and an obnoxious page number pasted over the top of the illo) does not do her subtle style justice." from Psst... Hey Kid, Wanna Buy a Fanzine? #3. The reviewer gives it "3 trees." The reviewers in "Psst... Hey Kid, Wanna Buy a Fanzine?" rated zines on a 1-5 tree/star scale. 
File:Lugetotaste.jpg|(1994) "To Taste the Trade Winds" -- "Lawrence of Arabia, as portrayed by Ralph Fiennes) and King Faisal (Siddig El Fadil) -- artist's description: "A drawing inspired by the PBS Great Performances production, A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia. A jumble of Paris buildings crowds the borders, which surround a view of Feisal sitting huddled on a low stool, legs crossed as they might be while riding a camel, arms folded across the updrawn knee, while a portrait of Lawrence and a hint of dunes in the background serve to illustrate his thoughts as he struggles to hold his ground through British and French political maneuverings in Lawrence's absence." from Media Prints A fan's comment: "Slash, slash, slash! And that's how Jean saw it too. She's as much a fan of the movie A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia, as we are. M. Fae and I spent the whole con sneaking peaks at this picture and just as we were starting to haul our stuff out of there and head for the airport, we gave in to lust and admiration and bought a print. I swear never again, never again (until I see more in the series). If you haven't seen A Dangerous Man, you really ought to. It's pure slash with everything except the sex, and that we can write. from Strange Bedfellows (APA). #6
