Sketches from last session with Bambi Galore (and a couple from Lady Vile’s)

Here’s a sampling of some of the sketches from last session with Bambi.  These first couple are from Gene…

The next was for the panel contest to with a wood canvas from Artist & Craftsman Supply (137 W North Ave) . . the contest was to tell a two panel or more story (like a comic) using the poses…

These next two were from the Lady Vile session before Bambi’s…

The next was another contest for a moleskin from Atomic Books with the task being incorporating a chimpanzee attack into your drawing.  This one seriously cracked me up (as did most…for some reason folks went bananas with that one.)

Yes, I just went there.

Blame it on the mimosa.

Back to Bambi’s session, these next couple were done by Annika Romeyn.

That’s it for the sketches…last reminder, next session is tomorrow night, Monday, March 22nd, at 7 o’cock with Lena Grove from Gilded Lily.

Panoramic photos!

I just realized that even though we sent an email out to the list, I totally forgot to do a blog post about the panoramic photos taken at the Lady Vile session.  (*UPDATE* – Oops, apparently Alexis mentioned them in the last blog post – oh well, they’re worth a second look. 🙂

I’m having trouble imbedding them here, but go to Andras Frenyo’s site and take a look (there’s even one of the downstairs bar at Dionysus)!  Andras did an absolutely amazing job . . . if you don’t off-hand know what a panoramic photo is, it’s a “long” photo that allows you to scroll the photo a full 360 degrees, giving the 3-D impression that you’re standing in the center of the room.

Pretty damn cool.  Check it out. 🙂

Your sketches of Lady Vile

As I’m still a little hung-over and bummed about losing an hour of my already short day (waking up at 1 p.m. then realizing it’s actually 2 when you have a shit-ton of things to do kinda sucks), I’m not gonna get too chatty here. So, without further ado, here are the Lady Vile sketches we’ve received from you.

A montage of sketches by Annika Romeyn. She won a brand-new  sketchbook from Artist & Craftsman Supply for the drawing of the mouse-infested Lady Vile, her entry for the second contest of the night which was to illustrate a guess at how our model got her name.

The following three drawings are by the lovely burlesque star Lily Stark White.

And, last but certainly not least, sketches from another regular, Gene Snyder.

And, since we didn’t get a scan of the winning chimp attack drawing, here’s a photo of the winner with her entry (the one with the dozen chimps, on the right):img_2564-2As an aside, the guy on the left apparently has been collecting our flyers, which is pretty flattering. I would have included photos of his binder, which is covered with flyers from as far back as October, but the photo came out way too dark, unfortunately.

And, in case you’re not on our mailing list (email us if you want to get on it), or haven’t joined our Facebook group, or haven’t noticed the link on our Myspace page, check out Andras Frenyo’s amazing panoramic photos of this session.

Don’t forget that our next session is tomorrow night (or tonight, if you’re reading this at your desk on Monday), when Bambi Galore will be up from DC to pose for your drawing pleasure. Bambi is not only part of the DC Gurly Show and DC Libertines, but she also hosted the DC branch of Dr. Sketchy’s. See you then!
