Since 2005, Dr. Sketchy's has been the name in alternative drawing. From illegal flashmobs to the Museum of Modern Art, Dr. Sketchy's has brought artists a rule-breaking cocktail of dames, drinking and drawing. Dr. Sketchy's branches draw in over a hundred cities around the globe, from Akron to Zagreb. Whether you're an artstar or a scribbling newbie, Dr. Sketchy's is the perfect place to get your fill of life-drawing
Dr. Sketchy's is the brainchild of artist Molly Crabapple

Holy Moly. I really need to try harder to do some drawing myself at Sketchy's once the door slows down and the poses get longer.

As I write this, we sit in the midst of the great Dr. Sketchy's drought of 2011. Our last session, which seems a lifetime ago on July 25th, with Femme 6, was our last hurrah before we entered these dark times, and unfortunately it's still over a week before Dahlia Derriere brings back the rain on September 12th. I don't know what you're doing to pass the time---keying paddle boats in the Inner Harbor? Attacking vicars with long-tailed cats? Watching Weeds on
