Last night, for the first time, Julia and I attended a life-drawing session at San Francisco’s branch of the famous Dr Sketchy’s anti-ArtSchool. It was a lot of fun.
My understanding is that the models are always dressed and posed to a theme and this time it was “burlesque clowns”. Three 20 minute poses and one 40 minute pose.
After several hours of drawing a sexy clown, we went with Julia’s friends Nadine and Lisa (who had also been at Dr Sketchy’s) to Meet my pal Bosco at HENRY’s HUNAN, where we all enjoyed a tasty dinner and several hours of pleasant conversation.

Your drawings are great! you captured her spirit well. my favorite is the bottom left drawing. nice!
it was a good time – I’d like to go to a few more of these.
Thanks. I think my faves are the top right or the bottom left. And I think a large part of what I like is simply her pose in each. And yeah, let’s posse-up for the ROAD WARRIOR night!
Jamie, these are beautiful and I especially love the bottom left. You caught a bit of her Mae West attitude (if Mae West were a burlesque clown!). Lovely observation. It was great to meet you and chat it up over dinner. I’m down for Road Warrior night next month!
yeah, ROAD WARRIOR night sounds pretty great. The only wrinkle is that I may have a re-union on that night… I hope i can do BOTH!
