- The Sunday Age, Melbourne
Dr. Sketchy's is the little Brooklyn event that became a movement.
Founded in 2005 by artist Molly Crabapple, and opening in Melbourne in July 2006
Dr. Sketchy's asked a simple question. Why can't drawing naked people be sexy?
Here's our attempt at an answer.
We combed Melbourne to find the most beautiful burlesque dancers, the most bizarre
circus freaks, and the most rippling hunks of man. Then, on the last Wednesday
of each month we let you draw them. Interspersed with posing are drawing contests
judged by the models themselveswhere you can win booze or prizes.
Dr. Sketchy's has received scads of media attention for it's combination of burlesque
and art. In June 2006, Dr. Sketchy's Official Rainy Day Colouring Book was released.
Written by Molly Crabapple and John Leavitt, The Colouring Book is one part
official Dr. Sketchy's historyand DIY compendium, one part activity book on acid.
The book hasa section dedicated to the Melbourne branch of Dr Sketchy’s and is filled
with drinking games, paper dolls, dirty word finds, and almost a hundred illustrations, it's
available for sale now, with its first printing selling out fast.
