Schedule of Upcoming events

The Sketchiest Event in Punta Gorda...and You're Invited!

Are you an artist, or do you want to be one? Art lovers of ALL skill levels are invited to attend Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School at In Your Face Cupcakes | Beer Wine & Coffee Bar and experience what is easily the most exciting and creative alternative life drawing session in SW Florida! This isn't the standard life drawing night you're used to. We encourage (responsible) drinking, socializing, snacking on tasty treats and we encourage wild cheers and applause to show appreciation for our models! So, grab your sketch pads (iPads welcome), sharpen your pencils, have a cupcake or three and lets make some Art!

Join us for the Sketchiest Event in SWFL! Jessica Anders will be joining us once again to inspire your sketches - our theme will be announced at a later date. Last time Jessica modeled for us while she was 6mo pregnant and was a wonderful "Mother Earth / Mother Nature" so I can't wait to see what she has in store for us this time.

Having been born and raised in Ohio Jessica is a country girl at heart which is probably why after only two years in Los Angeles she decided to move to Florida. Jessica's done her fair share of theatrical acting and has even taught ballroom dancing. Deep down though she's a nerd. When Jessica's not playing video games she's reading even though her real passion lies in the arts: photography, scenic painting, dancing and, of course!, modeling!
