Dr. Sketchy's Grand Rapids ~ Lula Loops

After hours of laboring over my sketchbook, back in my dark and steamy corner of the Sazerac Lounge last night, I relaxed and scribbled a little portrait of petite and lovely Lula Loops with more energy and freshness in it than all my other drawings combined.

So I scanned it and added some color.

Dr. Sketchy's Grand Rapids: Feb. 2012

Had a great time at the Sazerac Lounge in Grand Rapids last Sunday for Dr. Sketchy's: A Black Heart Valentine. I made a serious effort to loosen up a bit, inspired by the immense amount of creativity at these events.

The Vivacious Miss Audacious

This delightful and effervescent lady is one of the reasons Dr. Sketchy's is so much fun. (Check out her Facebook page and website.)

Done in colored pencil and white paint, using, for reference, a photo taken by the talented Jonathan Clay (whose Facebook page is here) at the last Dr. Sketchy's Grand Rapids event.

Dr. Sketchy's Grand Rapids

I had a great time this past Sunday night with two friends, attending Dr. Sketchy's in Grand Rapids. Our model was Maria LaGrave, a beautiful woman with an outstanding ability to hold poses for an amazing length of time. She was a real pleasure to draw!

Dr. Sketchy's Grand Rapids

Had a great time last night at the Sazerac Lounge in Grand Rapids for a Dr. Sketchy's session...I felt pretty rusty but copious amounts of alcohol, crazy music and bawdy behavior by the hosts and model and rest of the art monkeys made it all okay...
