Hello, Sketchniks.
There is nothing cooler or edgier than modern reinterpretations of classic fairy tales. Everyone is doing it and we wanted in. Looking through an old book of Grimms' Fairy Tales, we found the classic story of Snow White was greatly in need of updating. Sure, it's been passed down for generations, but it's missing one very key component: breasts. There is no mention in the entire story of breasts or fancy underwear. I know, every girl dreams of growing up to meet a handsome prince and living happily ever after with him, and about 10% dream that prince has a vagina, but breasts are just about the best part of growing up. Who the hell dreams of growing up and not having breasts? It's stupid and I don't believe it for a moment.
Greetings, Art Combatants!
Do you ever wish that your favourite video game characters were real people you could play with? What are you, 8? Seriously, you're lucky that this session just featured Stella Chuu dressed as Ivy Valentine (of the Soulcalibur franchise), because if Ivy were real and she knew what you wanted to do with her, she would kill you. Kate Black took photographs.
Speaking of Ms. Chuu, do you know who my favourite character from A
Adieu, Art Monkeys.
Recently, Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School had its last session at the Bowery Poetry Club. At the same time we were leaving our home, Raquel Reed was leaving hers. While Dr. Sketchy was merely moving a few blocks downtown, Raquel was moving clear across the country, to the rancid, decaying hellhole of Los Angeles. Naturally, we had to have one last session with Raquel, and, as any jilted lover, we had to express how much we hated California and their stupid everything. Kate Black took pictures.
Greetings, Art Monkeys.
We here at Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School are huge supporters of Girl Power in all its forms. Unfortunately, equal treatment of women in the workplace as well as greater focus on women's issues in our nation's politics are kind of outside of our capacity. On the other hand, we are able to showcase women who kick ass, which is why we had our model Haro pose as a leather-bound warrior woman. She's kind of a Xenaish, Wonder-Womany type in a Mad Max-like outfit, though I suppose since she's Austrian rather than Australian, I should make some Arnold Schwarzenegger reference. You know what? Nuts to that. I'm making reference to Haydn instead. That's right, she's a warrior in the action movie tradition of Franz Haydn.
Greetings, Art Monkeys!
Remember when we were kids and the girls played with My Little Ponies and boys played with G.I. Joes? Well, I had liberal parents who wouldn't let me play with G.I. Joe, because they thought it encouraged violence. They didn't seem to realize that what really encouraged violence was having older brothers and all they were doing was giving comfort to the enemies of our country's imaginary troops. Of course, nowadays, the boys play with My Little Ponies and the girls play with pulsating plastic phalli, so I guess the terrorists have won. However, we at Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School wanted to remind you of a more innocent time in your lives, so we had Holly J'aDoll and Lauren LaRouge pose dressed as a toy soldier
Namaste, Art Monkeys!
In this session, Amber Ray drew her inspiration from the mysterious, exotic, and dangerously overpopulated lands of Asia. You may wonder how these lands can be considered exotic when most of the people in the world live there, and that is just the beginning of the mystery of this swath of land extending from India to Vietnam and other places, too. This area is home to the sexiest source of three mana of any one colour, the lotus. Kate Black took photographs.
