Getting Ready for LOSCON! Thanksgiving Weekend.

November 21, 2009 on 10:15 am | In appearances, conventions | No Comments

LOSCON is our favorite convention of the year.  An extraordinary, intellectual, intimate, literary sci-fi/fantasy convention where you get to hang out with people like Harry Turtledove, Ray Bradbury, and the writers of Battlestar Galactica. 

This is the convention we live for every year 0_0 Or to be precise, it’s the room parties we live for every year!  Who can miss out on the wine & cheese room?  Or the desert room?  Or the try rare vodka room?  The best room?  By invitation only: party to 6 a.m. room.

This year, as always, we will hang up our art in the artshow and walk away to enjoy LOSCON.  Every one is welcome to join us in this extraordinary experience!

Visit the LOSCON website for more details.

Dr. Sketchy’s Los Angeles Session 007 is taking place at a new location in the NoHo Arts District. Cella Gallery boasts an inspiring calendar of art exhibitions and special events.

Dr. Sketchy’s Los Angeles Session 007 will be an exploration of urban mysticism. J. Corsentino is a fantasy photographer and creator of a new mythology titled Time of the Faeries that is populated with contemporary ethereal vixens. Corsentino will be bringing a brand new muse, Kymberly Jane,  to pose for Session 007.

The doors for Session 007 will open at 7:00 PM with poses starting shortly thereafter. Membership is $10 in advance via PayPal using the button below, or $12 at the door. The age requirement for this session is 18+.
