FANCYPANTS PRESENTS- V IS FOR: VELLUM

  • The Stud SOMA San Francisco, CA (map)

After three long months, Fancypants is back at The Stud, with a scintillating new theme that is sure to dazzle the eye! “V is for Vellum” is an exuberant examination of the overlay between illustration and drag! Of course, you can expect vivid explosions of line, form, and color! But be ready to dive deeper; our artists are exploring translucency, disposability, and so much more!

VIP Tickets include supplies for our 6pm figure drawing session hosted by Reese Bice, with Tuesday Gloom modeling! Everyone is welcome to join us for drawing with their own supplies.

Guest stars Vermiculus Rex, Xylo Phony, and Smooth Landyn, join our stable of hard-working regulars Chester Vanderbox, Polly Amber Ross, Carlota DiCarlo, Nicky Nomicon and Tuesday Gloom for an evening that literally illustrates their inexhaustible talent and insight.

Guest illustrators AC Esguerra and Emil Konishi are joining us from Los Angeles! They became enraptured with Fancypants when they came to Valiant way back in May 2024, and we've been looking for an opportunity to collaborate– and here it is! Our third guest illustrator is local icon of figure drawing, Jeff Lance. You may recognize his work from Sketchboard’s logo and tshirts!
