Dr. Sketchy's Galway!!!
Dr. Sketchy's is going to open a Galway branch! I've been dreaming for a long time that we would get a visit from Dr. Sketchy's Dublin organised, but Scarlett has taken that plan and gone about 1,000 steps beyond! I'm very excited at this news.
Show them some love by liking the new Facebook page, following them on Twitter and keeping an eye on the new website!
The first event is going to be on March 8th, with the theme "Invasion". You can book tickets here.

Admin Monday... let me see.... 10 FEB 2014?
Hey everybody! I have to go back and add details for all the photos on the Pub Scrawl posts, I'm a few behind at the moment, sorry about that! Work has taken to scheduling me for Tuesday mornings, so I just barely have time to upload the pics on a Monday night before I collapse to bed. But anyways, for now an Admin Monday, with all the links and updates from our Facebook group - join us there!
Updates:
Chuck suggested that maybe we should go on a Pub Scrawl cinema date:

Brian from Drink & Draw Sligo linked to this -
pretty cool!
Aaron Diaz has moved his Silmarillion Project material to a new Tumblr - look at those character designs!
Check out Android Jones' Gallery at integrallife.
There's some really good digital art resources free to download at ArtByPapercut.
I forgot February first was Hourly Comics Day. The idea is to make a little mini-comic an hour for every hour you're awake, about what you did that hour. If you poke around the internet, you can find some nice ones from this year -

First admin Monday update of 2014! So much good stuff has been discussed in our Facebook group! Come join us there for the best way to stay updated on what's going on and be up to speed with our events and what we're talking about.
Updates:
Jay is still selling you Art.
Mary reminded us you can pick up a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2 for free over on Adobe.com
And Patrick pointed out this Tumblr where you can find brushes for your copy of Photoshop.
Links:
Mary linked to a great drawing tutorial website - Drawspace
A great documentary on the landscape painter Jim McVicker -
Flooby Nooby is a great source of animation links - but he also goes exhaustively through animated movies (like the Incredibles) in a shot-by-shot breakdown of how shots are composed, how the eyelines are guided, everything.
These are amazing 3-d typography designs by Lex Wilson.
Patrick linked to this -
Is it the world's most produced action figure?
I LOVE these Moleskine doodles by Kerby Rosanes.
And these 360 degree books are mind blowingly beautiful (by Yusuke Oono).
There are some great character design resources over on Chris Oatley's website.
There was a peek at the Art on display at the Arcadia Contemporary Show on the Underpaintings blog.
Matt Kish has illustrated every page of "Heart of Darkness" - and they're very intense.
Douglas Flynt gave some good tips on brushwork and linked to downloads for Harold Speed books on his blog.
Brian from Drink and Draw Sligo came to visit us for the last Pub Scrawl and was extolling the virtues of the Round Tablet website.
And Nicolas Delort has a new website - beautiful work on display!
That's it! I feel like the year has started for real. Come join us next Monday, the 3rd of February, for our next Pub Scrawl - #104 Bad Advice is still a converation
