For our last session of the year, we were lucky enough to have model for us local celebrity MIss ChiChi Rodriquez. We were thrilled to be featuring one of our home-grown models for the monkeys to sketch. We were even more thrilled to announce to the crowd that ChiChi has been asked to participate in this year's Miss'd America Pageant.
For those of you who don't know, the Miss America Pageant originated in NJ. It was originally conceived as a way to keep the tourists in town after the official end of summer that comes with the arrival of labor day.
Miss'd America was a spoof of the historic pagaent and features Drag Queens from all over the US. It is a fun and fantastic night in AC and they help to raise money for multiple
I don't know how we do it, but each session, the models just keep getting better and better. One would think that it just isn't possible, but if you were at our last session with Lyra Kelli, you would realize that it is true.
Part of Philly's Own Peek-A-Boo Revue, Lyra was a stunning and amazing model. A beautiful person to draw and just as beautiful to deal with, this is the kind of model Dr. Sketchy's is known for! I haven't heard my monkeys complain this much when I called the end of the session as I did for Lyra's. The artists were enthralled with her poses. Each one was well thought out and interesting no matter where you sat.
Our models were so inspired, that when it came down to
Over our summer hiatus, while we were doing anything but hiatusing, we were approached by a committee member from the Olde Kings Jazz Festival. They had attended a few Dr. Sketchy sessions in the past and wanted to know if we would be interested in being part of their 2010 festival. I'm always excited to bring my branch to festivals and other such art events, but need to keep that excitement in check until I get more information. I proceeded to look up everything I could about the event online, converse with people who had been involved or attended in past years and lastly, I made sure to visit the venue that was interested in hosting us.
Well, even if everything hadn't checked out, and even if the venue and it's owner weren't as
It was cold and rainy outside, but Miss Key brightened up our day!!!!
Miss Key, of Philly's own Peek-A-Boo Revue graciously modeled for us for our October session and she was amazing! Her outfits were stunning and her poses were fun. We were delighted to be able to feature someone from such a well-know troupe and can't thank her enough for coming all the way down to our little town for the day.
We always try to make our models as comfy as possible. If we can, we bring additional props or anything else that will make their job easier. We know we wouldn't want to be up there and to hold a pose for even a few seconds is too much for our ADD riddled minds! So, one of the best parts of our venue is the fact that we share space with an
We here at the South Jersey Branch would like to thank Satangela for being our model this past Saturday. This was the first time we got to work with her and she did not disappoint! Her poses were well thought out and sexy. She really knew how to work a pose and get the most out of the slightest of gestures. Her outfits were amazing - even though she decided to forgo some clothing in order to be comfy for her 20 minute pose. I don't think anyone was complaining though:)
Satangela is just one gorgeous lady and we can't wait to work with her again.
Our monkeys had a great time and we saw some new faces which is always nice. To top it off, one of our new attendees won the model's choice of the night, so congrats to Josh. We hope you
