A Night at the Circus - Reference Photos

I took quite a few reference photos while I was at the Drawn & Plastered night. None of them are any good as photos, but I was just using my phone to get some poses, and the Hipstamatic app because I like what it does with the colour and light. I find bad and flawed photos tend to make the most interesting paintings. I have a few things in mind for these, can't wait to see if it turns out the way it looks in my head!

A Night at the Circus - Sketches

Last night I went to Drawn & Plastered, an event held about once a month here in Winnipeg. It was a fun night, I got to go to a pub, have a pint and do some sketching. Right in my element! The theme for the evening was 'Circus', so the models were in costume, and they even had a couple little shows too. I took plenty of reference photos, which I'll make something of shortly. I certainly didn't create any masterpieces, but I enjoyed myself anyway.
