Last Saturday we, at Dr Sketchy Sheffield, held an event celebrating the art of tattoos. I’d been wanting to do a tattoo themed event ever since I took over the running of the branch with my co-co-ordinator Lara Gothique. The idea of drawing people who are covered in drawings really does it for me.

Plus, it was a great opportunity to get some male models on board. We haven’t had anywhere enough guys modelling for us – although they were pretty hard to convince. Who’d have thought these inked up guys would be so shy?

We had a great mix of guys and girls. I did these black and white drawings at the event. I added colour at home, later.

The other great thing about being the artist, in our partnership, is that I get to set some drawing exercises. My exercise for this event was to draw the (model’s) body through the tattoos alone. It was more difficult to do than I’d imagined, and I still ended up adding some body lines to my attempt (above).

Despite my car braking down en-route, and being totally stressed out by that by time I got there, I still managed to get a whole load of sketches done. Many more than this in fact, but the rest were on a larger A3 sketchbook – and I’ll have to get them scanned by somebody with an A3 scanner.

I’m always so impressed by the events we create. Obviously, it takes a whole lot of help from the people who get involved just for the love of the event. From the DJ, to the photographer, to the runners, to the sponsors, to the venue and the amazing models. We appreciate and thank them all. And, of course, to all the sketchers that come along and have fun, draw and ensure that Dr Sketchy Sheffield continues.

Plus, if that’s not impressive enough, where else do you get to draw a tattooed Reverend? I’m guessing nowhere. I may be wrong, but if I were a betting woman I’d put money on it.
