Sometimes all I need is a little Dr. Sketchy’s to get me inspired. Tonight was a great Tuesday night. Went to Club Cafe to draw for 2 hours. Had a martini with olives and sketched away. Here’s what I came up with. The outfits tonight’s models wore touched my weakness for leopard print and Tim Burton styling. So much fun to get into my drawings. I won free admission to the next Dr. Sketchy’s for my unicorn drawing.

Hello. I’m just starting this website. I will use this site to upload the newest images I create as well as art related activities and events I attend.
I’m currently working on new flower pins/brooches. These brooches will be sold at the MassArt Spring Sale. MassArt’s Spring Sale takes place May 2 — 7 in the Tower Lobby.
Here’s a sneak peek of the flowers I will be selling:
Thanks to the talent and patience of Luke Sideris, this website exists. See Luke’s Portfolio here.
