Yes, as you may have guessed, I’m a bit behind showing you my Dr Sketchy’s Birmingham drawings. As there’s over two years worth of unseen artwork in my sketchbooks (and tablet, of which more later), I’ve split this update into three posts (Part 2 – Part 3), so here are a selection of my favourites. Apologies if I’ve missed anyone out!
This update covers four Dr Sketchy’s between November 2012 to September 2013, namely Tim Burton, Art and Icons, Carry On Sketching and Showgirls. Unfortunately I couldn’t make a couple of the summer events in 2013 (Gothica and Menagerie) due to prior engagements, hence there was a bit of a gap between the last two.
However, Dr Sketchy’s Birmingham returns once more to the Victoria this Saturday (at the slightly earlier starting time of 2:30) for a subject that regular readers of this blog will know is a subject close to my heart, Steampunk!
24 November 2012 – Tim Burton Tribute
A trip through the weird and wonderful films of Tim Burton, including Beetlejuice, Sweeney Todd, The Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride.
26 January 2013 – Art and Icons
A touch of culture, featuring art and artists, and a special appearance by the Statue of Liberty.
30 March 2013 – Carry On Sketching
Oo-er, missus! A raucous romp through the Carry On back catalogue, taking in Carry On Cleo, Dick, Sergeant, Screaming and (of course) Doctor!
28 September 2013 – Show Girls!
And we round off this update with a bit of glamour!
Carry on to Part 2 and Part 3! Looking forward to seeing you at the next one!
