Had a chance to attend this past Saturday's Dr. Sketchy's session on the Lower East Side with Laz Marquez. However, we got there an hour late (oops) and only managed to find a spot to stand in the back of the bar. Our distant viewpoint of the model posed some challenges, but Laz and I pumped out some amazing drawings. Oddly enough, I brought my watercolors to the session (and anyone who knows me knows I never use watercolors), proving to be a good case of foresight. I worked loosely and produced these sketches on my moleskine (which held well and barely buckled). The highlight of the night was when Laz won the final contest, which has us incorporating a dictator into the drawing (trust me, as soon as he posts it I will provide a link). We might try going again in two weeks, my job schedule notwithstanding.
