Houston art scene showing the love at Dr. Sketchy!
Houston is a really great city. We've got amazing food, fun random things to do, fantastic career opportunities and passionate, amazing people (*ahem*: Mo-Mo-Monica, Tasty Tiff and DJ Jaymac).
But sometimes there just feels like there's something missing and that's where Houston Dr. Sketchy comes in. A divine combo of life drawing class, performance art, killer beats and well-mixed beverages.
I started the group at the beginning of the year in Houston with the amazing Molly Crabapple's permission in NYC (where the 1st of over 43 Dr. Sketchy international groups started it all). This March marked our third monthly event and it was the best yet - we packed Avant Garden's 2nd floor to the gills with outstanding artists and sunshiney, smiley folks.
It's a little kitschy, a little cheeky and a lot of fun. We have a big Houston Dr. Sketchy Art Show in the works for this year and are planning on bringing some actual drawing classes into the mix as well. Join us sometime if you can!! We'd love to ogle your drawings and ply you with special Dr. Sketchy cheer.
Thanks to my Art Goddesses who make every event something look forward to and my Sketchy boys JayMac and Adamito who keep things on track bigtime. Mad props to Groovehouse, our official photog who always makes us look skinny, and Ed Schipul who lets me use his great shots (like the one above) and is just an all-around great friend.
