KillJoy the Show Life Drawing

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.


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!

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  🙂


Dr Sketchy’s Oct Session with BAM BAM

Last month’s Dr Sketchy’s session featured the unique and beautiful performer and event-maker, BAM BAM. She was like a cocktail of Rock n Roll danger, sideshow humour with burlesque grace.

One of my drawing (Her reclining in the “Eyes”costume) ended up winning the art book prize  “Metamorphosis 1&2″from the our hosts BeinArt Gallery. I’d like to think it was meant as lovely early birthday present.

 


Return of Dr. Sketchy’s!

After over a year long break Dr. Sketchy’s Melbourne is back! Although no longer monthly and in a new venue it is just as fun and friendly as ever. “The Homage to the Hiney” had 3 bootylicious performers showing off what they got –  Frankie Valentine , Miss Jane Doe and Bella De Jac.

Unfortunately we arrived late (my fault, my friends had to pick me up from the train) so we sat on the floor and to the side. So all of my sketches are from this unusual view point. And this meant I was only able to see one of the models during the longer poses.
