Next Dr. Sketchy's Baltimore is Monday, August 10th, with Sophia Sunday of Gilded Lily Burlesque!

Sophia Sunday is leaving Baltimore! There are lots of rumors why—so far, I've heard a deal went bad involving waterfront property on Pratt and a truck of Cuban rum, a found map purporting to reveal the location of One-Eyed Willie's second stash, and a knife-fight at a recent Gilded Lily practice that she settled with a pistol all might be reasons for her departure.

Who. Knows.

Sophia was our model for our sixth anniversary last year, so it goes without saying that she comes at ya' like a Greek muse with a pair of brass knuckles, a belly full of liquid courage, and the temperament of a dog pissing in a briar patch.

Actually, she's really nice—I just wanted to say that briar patch line.

Look, though!

Will she ever come back to Baltimore? Maybe?! I have no freaking idea, so we're treating this as THE END—so strap on your best watercolors, pencils, and pens, and come draw this talented performer one last time.
