Well, mailing A - J on the Pictoplasma list (oh and I forgot to tell you, all the London members with a profile picture on Mojizu) paid off: around 5 new members and ONE RSVPed YES!!!!
Thanks to Alex Hughes (who sadly, lives in Birmingham so he probably won't be able to come along generally) for sending me this link to: Dr Sketchy
"We combed New York to find the most beautiful burlesque dancers, the most bizarre circus freaks, and the most rippling hunks of man. Then, every other Saturday, we let you draw them for three hours." Check out the Dr Sketchy Gallery
They're aiming for sexy in a light hearted way. Not sure I'm into the whole erotic arts thing (probably because I'm not a man) or the voyeuristic 'circus freaks' bit but I like the costumes.
Might go for a change!
- I could walk around on my knees wearing a long black coat and pretend I'm Toulouse Lautrec
re VENUE
Am following up a new lead at a place called the Hub just behind Angel tube station. Looks like it's perfect. It's not too arty and not too rent-a-nylon-carpet. The idea is that freelancers can drop in and work with other freelancers if they feel like it. For people who don't have their own office basically. Only £15 per hour in a room for 15 people.Labels: angel tube, cartoon, dr sketchy, figure drawing, mojizu, pictoplasma, the hub
