Oz Comic-Con Melbourne 2018

I wanted to share some photos from last weekend Oz Comic-con and say a big thank everyone who came by to support me with their kind words and purchasing my work

I did my first playmat con sketch and got an amazing Space Dandy sketch from Jeffrey Cruz “Chamba” for my partner James to say thank you for all his help.

My sister, Maggie had her Comic con debut sharing my table selling her handmade and gloriously sparkly one of a kind earrings – Check out her work at Showgirl Pearls

Dancing! Drawing! Disco! Dr. Sketchy’s Life drawing with The SuperVixens! What a way to end the year! Thank you Mel for an amazing year of Dr. Sketchys <3

Very rapid sketches trying to capture as much of these gorgeous groovy gals as I could.

Drawings from last month’s session of Dr Sketchy’s Melbourne featuring the beautiful Bella Dejac and Kerry Whittle from Beast Burlesque.

I just realised that I forgot to post my favourite drawing from the last Dr Sketchy’s session! I was really happy with this one, I can’t believe I left it out! Thank you again Killjoy the Show for an amazing night.

I am looking forward to the next session. I’m starting to miss my more regular classes. It will be great to have a night of fun art again soon.

Dr Sketchy’s Life Drawing with Killjoy the Show

At the last Dr Sketchy’s life drawing session we had the pleasure of having 3 amazing performers from Killjoy the Show as our models. Not only that but they had their band live on stage with them to perform! Their song with accompanying acrobatics/dance was incredible.

I’m still enjoying my watercolor pencil sketch experiments for the longer poses but I am keeping with my trusty black colored pencil for all the quick drawings. Sadly I wasn’t fast enough to capture much of the dazzling piñata-like beauty hanging from her aerial silks.

Bishoujo Edward Scissorhands Life Drawing Session

A week ago to I taught my last Covert Characters Life Drawing class for the year and I couldn’t have asked for a better night! Friends and familiar faces were there and Silhouettê d’Amour was fantastic as Bishoujo Edward Scissorhands.

I really enjoyed experimenting with watercolor pencil and water brush at the last life drawing class I attended so I thought I would try some more. I like how quickly I can brush in some shading and darken shadows by drawing over the top.

Dr Sketchy’s Life Drawing -Vintage Beauties & Yves Klein Tribute

Another magical night with Dr Sketchy’s! Camilla & Michelle were dazzling vintage beauties and than beautiful blue muses. The performance and poses to follow inspired by Yves Klein was something truly special!

It was a really fun experiment with drawing with the blue watercolor pencil and then paint over it with water. I then could draw over the wet paper again to emphasis shadows and lines.

Looking forward to the next wild art party!

Reminder: This Wed August 30th will be the last class I will be teaching for the year! We have the lovely Silhouettê d’Amour, model and amazing cosplayer, posing as Bishoujo Edward Scissorhands! So join us for an evening of art and fun!

Dr Sketchy’s Life Drawing with Agent Cleave and Dandrogyny!

Every Dr Sketchy’s event is wonderful and totally unlike any other drawing class. I tried to explain it to my friends as “Burlesque-like Performance Art Event with Audience Participation and Some Drawing”! Its more important that everyone is having a good time experiencing art and making art than studying form and improving technique.

The last session was truly incredible and fun in the unique way only Dr Sketchy’s Melbourne art parties can be! Thank you Mel, Agent Cleave and Dandrogyny for an amazing night 🙂
