Come one come all, to the Big Top Not-So-Travelling Spectacle! GAZE upon the models! GAWK at the artists! DRINK yourself into a stupor! It's the all singing-all dancing- all drawing circus night at Dr. Sketchy's, and who better to guide you than our returning champion, Amber Ray?
She's a sensational sexy clown. I don't know wether to be horrified or aroused … just like every other time. And now I, your faithful re-capper, armed with a Bloody Mary and glittery princess clown, to give it to you, our insatiable weasels of an audience.
Thanks to Dr. Simon, Justin Lussien and Ryan Roman for the photographs. Without them I'd just have to describe everything, and frankly I've got better things to do today.
Ahhh, Janurary! That brisk, crisp time of year when apple-faced children put on their parkas and race outside to enjoy the….unseasonable warmth. It's 70 degrees in New York, thanks to either divine intervention or global warming. Whatever it is, we salute you!

I feel so dirty…the dirt's not coming off!

It's a bird! it's a plane! It's a Dr. Sketchy Book Signing! We took over the venerable comic book megastore, Jim Hanley's Universe, for a night of cupcakes, espresso beans, poses, and copious cleaveage. But why use mere words when we have such great images? Photos by Ryan Roman and Dr. Simon.
Lady J, our model for the evening and exploder of hearts nationwide. I read from the book and Molly provided the flimsy pretense of a "drawing lesson" so we all could gaze upon lady J as a saucy sailor. All hands on deck
