The Doc Throws a Pajama Party!

On Friday, Jan 7th Dr. Sketchy cures your New Year's hangover with an extra-special session of Northampton's unique cabaret life drawing club.

Join us at 7:30 with your drawing supplies and we'll provide the cookies (vegan and non) and cocoa (spike it at the bar), loverly models, and live music from guest performers SYLPHID. Drawing, drinking, debauchery and pillowfights will ensue!

Admission is $10, OR $5 when you come in pjs and bring a pillow! 21+/bring your own drawing accoutrements and a booklight (highly suggested, they're like a buck at acme)

Hope to see you there!

Dr. Sketchy's Northampton Cracked the Nut!

December's session featured a saucy toy soldier and snowflake ballerina modeling their little hearts out to the sounds of totally decent christmas punk and indie songs and the scratching of pencil to paper. Our tattoo yourself or someone else (making friends!) contest was particularly hilarious, and contest winners were treated to awesome goodies from our sponsors: the artists at Lucky's Tattoo and Piercing - who donated a $50 gift certificate, topatoco.com - who donated a sweet Bake'n'Bake apron and a hilarious book of comics by Kate Beaton, Oh My! Sensuality Shop - donating their signature classy and not-so-classy adult toys, and mymonsterhat.com - with some adorable handmade finger puppets and a snowmonster hat. And, thanks also to Chameleons Salon, who did our ballerina's hair up in a blizzard of sparkles, feathers, snowflakes, and other craziness. Thanks to everyone who came, and as always, my wonderful art monkeys for their help!

New Sponsors!

Baby Tattoo Books is an LA-based company that sponsors Dr. Sketchy's as a whole and puts out sweet art books and graphic novels. Check 'em out at babytattoo.com

topatoco.com is a really cool local business that sells shirts, art, comics, tote bags and other fun crap; many of the products by fine fine local artists and illustrators, and we're really glad to have them on board. Last month Dr. Sketchy's Noho contest winners enjoyed a fabulous book by illustrator Kate Beaton (jealous!) and a Bake 'n' bake apron from topatoco. Can't wait to see what they out with next!

And as always, we are so grateful to our sponsors, who make Dr. Sketchy's just that much cooler. Please check all 'dem out, they're guaranteed to be good things.

Next week we'll have pictures up of our December session, which was chock full of randy holiday spirit and elicited some seriously excellent drawings from our attendees. Hope to see y'all Friday, January 7th for our super-fantastic Pajama Party at the Elevens!
