Sketchy Sunday
Sketchy Sunday lands between the rush of Sketch Appeal and the commitment of Long Pose Day. Two-and-a-half hours, a single longer pose, with breaks to wander, look at each other’s work and refill the cup.
The session for drawers who want more than a warm-up but can’t make a whole day of it.
Sunday 9.30am – 12 noon · Every 3–4 weeks
Kinky Drawers
WELCOME!!
Welcome artists and voyeurs — where creativity runs wild and art comes alive! Imagine a gathering of lively souls, a kaleidoscope of artists and aficionados, voyeurs and explorers!
This evening delivers an eclectic combination of art, music, live performance, and burlesque life drawing.
WHAT:
A mesmerising blend of sassy burlesque and live performance art, and playful theatrical life drawing. Multiple models present. The beautiful human form, in every beautiful shape. We draw. We watch. We interact. All presented over a cool playlist of tunes! Brace yourself for a playful evening, where art takes a cheeky detour and waltzes with the unexpected.
WHO:
You are the artist, the creative, or the curious voyeur. The avant-garde enthusiasts, the free spirits yearning for a night of fun explorative artistic expression. Eccentrics, creatives, the curious — and those who appreciate the beauty of thinking and playing outside the box.
WHERE: Brunswick Heads.
The Brunswick Picture House is our playground. This vivacious vintage venue invites you for an evening of uninhibited creativity that knows no bounds.
WHY:
Because life is short and playing is fun! Because creativity enlivens the soul!
Our gathering seeks to infuse a dose of humour, uniqueness, and unapologetic cheekiness into the tapestry of daily existence. We’re here to tickle your funny bone and ignite the flames of art and imagination.
SO…
Unleash your inner eccentric, and join us in this interactive riot of art, music, mischief, and messy mayhem! A rendezvous with the spontaneous and the unpredictable. A celebration of the beautiful wonder that is art!
Follow Your Art
Follow Your Art is the brainchild of artist and creative facilitator Kathy Toka, born from a deep love of art, community, and the transformative power of creative practice. What began as a simple life-drawing offering has grown into a vibrant, inclusive collaboration between artists, models, performers, and creatives of all kinds.
At its heart, Follow Your Art offers weekly untutored life drawing sessions with a live model — providing a relaxed, focused space for artists to explore their own process without instruction or pressure. These are complemented by bi-monthly long-pose days, where artists have the rare opportunity to work with the same model holding the same pose for an entire day, allowing for deeper observation, extended studies, and immersive creative flow.
Adding a bold and playful edge is Kinky Drawers — an evening arthouse extravaganza combining burlesque models, live music, and visual art in a sensual, celebratory atmosphere that’s truly not to be missed.
While Kathy runs the show, what truly defines Follow Your Art is the environment she cultivates: warm, welcoming, and inclusive. Artists of all skill levels and experience are encouraged to come exactly as they are, connect with others, and — most importantly — follow their art.
