Greetings, art monkeys!
Last week, the King Con was held at the Brooklyn Lyceum and Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School was there! Posing for us, we had our good friend Paige Pumphrey (Paigey, as her friends call her), and our mutual friend Christy Sawyer took pictures.
Here we see the STARS of the session! Because "star" means "featured performer," but it's also the shape that's over her -- oh, you got it? Good.
And now the Toy Box of Terror event and all it's gruesome, blood-stained Halloween depravity has been featured on the Cornwall's Coolest website!! if you missed the haunting evening of sick sketching then check out the article and also have a peek at Royzy's blog of the evening...
