We would love to see you ALL there. Any artist who are not on a team are welcome to come and draw and enter a separate contest for guests, prizes given at the end of the evening! Bring yer sketchpads and weapons of mass drawings. If you don't draw, but love art, having a few drinks, mingling, and havin fun, please, come on out, and bring your friends! Feel free to put this on your blogs, or websites, we want to share this great event with as many people as possible!
Teams of artists will compete against each other during timed drawing
sessions. This year's event will have a 2-hour long pose, and eight 5
to 20 minute short pose events including: moving models; best likeness;
odd angle; draw the crowd; and blind contour. The drawing is fast, fun,
furious, and extremely competitive,... with every artist utilizing all of
their talents and tricks!
