Sketchy Bitches Go Dotty!

  • Sketch Appeal London United Kingdom (map)

We’re going dotty for everything spotty at our next Sketchy Bitches portrait party!

We’ll be drawing 8 minute portraits of each other (freestyle), and there’ll be chance to create some 10 minute pointillist portraits too. (Feel free to ignore the pointillist thing and just come draw freestyle if you prefer.)

In case you’re wondering, Pointillism is a (neo-impressionist) painting technique in which you use tiny dots of various pure colours to create an image that looks blended in the viewer's eye. If you fancy trying out this technique (you don’t have to!), then bring chunky felt tip pens or POSCAS for a nice round dot. You could also try using cotton buds dipped into coloured or black ink.

Dress code = DOTTY! Or come spotless and we’ll attempt to draw you using the pointillist technique.

Tickets £6 / £10

NB: This session will take place on Zoom, where our only rule = cameras ON! Our priority is to ensure that Sketchy Bitches remains a safe and inclusive social space for people to connect and create.
