Birdmann

There is nothing quite like sitting 1 metre away from a very tall man and trying to fit his entire dramatic frame onto a very small piece of paper.

And this is nothing like it.

And this is nothing like it.

And there were several of these……

We sketched The Birdmann last night at Dr Sketchy, and though it was a near-impossible draw, man it was fun!

You can see some of his work here, and at the end of the sketching session he generously shared part of his act with us.  He juggled plastic bags, showed us smooth moves to use in our daily lives and threw in some Irish dancing and a hasty strip to his Y-fronts.  Hilarious and very, very entertaining.  He came straight from the plane from New York (where I think he was performing) and he is in Melbourne from Sept 26 – October 3 at the North Melbourne Town Hall.

Such fun.
