Coming to you this month at Dr Sketchys we have another stunning Sugar Blue Burlesque Artiste! Fresh from the finals of Miss Burlesque Western Australia, Miss Cécile Mimieux.

A pearl amongst pearls this lovely little thing is a delicate and intensely sensual female. Her long black locks, creamy white skin and perfect body have often been compared to the amazing Dita Von Teese!

Having trained as a ballerina most of her life her burlesque routines incorporate breathtaking movement and poses alongside a potent sexuality and mysterious smile.

Hosting us again we shall have the incredibly odd and energetic Dr Barry Umenema, please don’t be frightened if he starts to measure up your brain behind you or begins to mutter about his experiments he is mostly fanatical about the wonderful art you will all be making!

Eisels are welcome up the back and remember to bring drop sheets if you are doing some flamboyant ink or paintwork. As always the bar is fully stocked to help loosen that creative mind of yours!

Where: The Burlesque Lounge – Upstairs, 267 William Street, Northbridge
Model: Kai – Freerunner and Contact Juggler
Cost: $15 on the door

Fellow Sketchys Kids we are in for something pretty amazing this month. Not only do we have a stunningly handsome male model but he’s super talented too!

Kai has trained for over 8 years in Acrobatics, Parkour and Freerunning. This toned perfect specimen of manhood has been used in movies as a stunt double but ends up being involved in larger onscreen parts because he’s just too damn gorgeous! Remember the Bourne Identity? Well that guy can’t jump onto moving vehicles like Kai can!

Now I know all you ladies have heaving chests right about now… but I have more to add to the table. This man contact juggles too! Ever see the Labyrinth and fall in love with the hypnotic liquid movement of crystal globes? When Sarah gets trapped in the bubble and David Bowie dances with her and….awwww…. Well Kai is going to entrance us on June 2^nd!

Yep…just like Bowie…mmmm….

The Bar is stocked! Theres plenty of room and feel free to come along even if you don’t feel like drawing…yes he’s that hot to just stare at!

You can look but you can’t touch the snaking limbs of this fiery beauty who is sure to haunt your dreams long after the night is over!

A good thing the bar is fully stocked to handle all your dry throats from the gasps of amazement and lip licking as this wonderous creature  bares her flawless skin and golden locks amidst the flames. Definately a Dr Sketchys to remember! Bring rembrants if you’ve got em’!

Many thanks to our gorgeous model – Lorelei Lita!

It is time to bid farewell to your Dr Sketchy doyen, Trixi Tassels, as she prepares to make her mark on the international burlesque stage.  Trixi, A’dora Derriere and Sapphire Demure have been selected to perform in the prestigious London Burlesque Week in April, after which Trixi is going travelling and twirling around the globe!

Help send the girls off in style on Friday 9th April at The Burlesque Lounge.  This show will feature all your favourite Sugar Blue Burlesque artistes with DJ Bendog spinning ska, rocksteady and soul tunes all evening.  Note this show starts at the slightly-earlier-than-usual time of 7:30pm.

Tickets are available from Heatseeker now.

The next Dr Sketchy is…

When: 7pm, Wednesday 7th April
Where: The Burlesque Lounge – upstairs, 267 William Street, Northbridge
Model: Lorelei Lita
Cost: $15 on the door

Have you ever fantasised about that gorgeous blonde bombshell, Marilyn Monroe, and wished you could have seen her in the flesh?  Well wish no longer!  April sees the triumphant debut to the Dr Sketchy stage of one Ms Lorelei Lita – Sugar Blue Burlesque’s own Marilyn lookalike with curves guaranteed to smack you in the face and knock you right out.  Known as the sexiest minx to ever grace a Sugar Blue stage, Lorelei Lita will be posing and peeling just for you for a whole 2.5 hours!

It also must be sadly announced that the powerhouse behind the Perth branch of Dr Sketchy’s Anti-Art School, Trixi Tassels, is departing these fair, summery shores for the dirty streets of London and beyond.  But fear not!  The reigns will be ably taken over by fellow flame-haired beauty, Dimity the bar-wench!  So come along, have a drink and commiserate as Trixi takes over the mic to guide you through her final, scintillating Dr Sketchy session.

As an extra bonus, there will even be UNLUCKY DIPS for some unlucky punters who will win spot prizes.  What the hell is an unlucky dip?  All the leftover stuff from Trixi’s boudoir that she needs to ditch before catching her plane!

We also announce the exciting arrival of our newest sponsor, Kittie Chaos who specialise in glamorous, retro-inspired jewellery, clothing, homewares and more!  Kittie Chaos have kindly donated some super-awesome goodies for you to win on the night, so come along and be in to win some fantastic stuff.

Here are some pics from the last session starring Lola The Vamp.  Apologies for the quality – I forgot my camera that night so had to take them on Sir Alfred Botty-Pincher’s iPhone!

Now as much as many of you might be shy about your own artwork, I KNOW that there are some hugely talented people out there who create amazing work each session.  Well now it’s time to stop being a shrinking violet and say, “Hell yeah!  The public should take a look at my work ‘cos I am hot sh%t!”

From now until Sunday you can exhibit your work for free in the Laneway Art & Lattes exhibition that is happening around Perth as part of “Eat, Drink Perth“.

Go on, do it!  If you want to exhibit 1 piece or 10 then call organiser Nikki on 0424950555.
