We got into the groove of 2012 with an ode to the queen of pop and (at times, somewhat sketchy) style icon: Madonna. Desperately Sketching Susan had our art monkeys scrabbling for tickets, resulting in a packed house to welcome our diva-licious demi-goddess - Willow Noir. Willow made a special trip down from the windy shores of Wellington to model and perform for us and we were utterly stoked to have her!

The Madonna of the Bowling Green: Willow Noir

Thrice as nice! Lady Madonnas: The light side, the dark side and the holy-moly-beejeezus-you'll-take-someone's-eye-out-with-those-cone-boobs-of-glory side! (In other news: Rosie's Reckless lazer-tits trend continues)

Strike a pose!

Willow's first performance, touched us (for the very first time) as she sashayed around the room and shimmied into something a little more... sketchable.

Many a Chch art monkey became enamoured of our model. She had us wrapped around her lace-gloved finger!

Willow answered our prayers as a stunning model and cheeky performer!

Like an Icon, Willow rocked a costume change and provided plenty of thrust and grind in her second performance.

For more information on Willow Noir - glamorous pin up model, entertainer and all round good time girl - find her on facebook.

Our resident paparrazi-perv, Paige Turner and the winner of our embellishment drawing competition. We challenged our art monkeys to illustrate the new scandal being splashed across gossip-rags about Madonna (We only wish it were true!)

Best. Suprise. Boobie prize. Ever.

Facebook says no to nipples. We choose to say "YES PLEASE! Let glorious nipples reign supreme; this ain't the Superbowl!"

It's great to be back and in the flow of sketchy shenanigans once more! For more photos and a update from the Chch Sketchy girls, find us on facebook.
