November gave me (Miss la Belle) my first taste of running Dr. Sketchy Wellington, and I was so everly wonderfully assisted by two wonderful models, Ellie Kat and Bella Rose, and a sparkly emcee to boot, Crystal Mischief.

Ellie Kat quickly warmed us up with "Natural Woman" and provided us with a very saucy striptease to get us in the mood. We very soon discovered that both Ellie Kat and Rosa Belle were life

Our October session, featured Penny Maple, Elle Xombeah, and Lavender Menace as the Glamorous Dead; and Sarkany was their victim. Check out more photos at in the event gallery!



Are you awful at being a "Good Girl?" Yeah... its kinda our thing too.

You don't need to bring a thing! Paper and pencils are provided. But if you prefer to bring your own materials, please make sure wet/messy items aren't any more than a neat watercolour set.
As with every Dr. Sketchy event - expect burlesque performances, plenty of sketching challenges,
Bunny Pistol is a San Francisco burlesque performer, the producer of Barbary Coast Burlesque, and she rocked our world as Darth Vader in our Star Wars event. This lady is not to be missed!
