Caricature Express

I did Fashion Sketches at a Sweet 16 this week.
I’ve been wanting to make a page at this website
to let people know that I do this also,
but I haven’t gotten up to it for years.
The only people who hire me for Fashion Sketches
are the people who’ve seen me do this elsewhere.
It’s so much fun! A different focus, a different type
of picture.

Still don’t have time to make a new page.
If you’d like Fashion Sketches instead of Caricatures,
just let me know when you ask about my availability.
I’d enjoy doing them as often as I do Caricatures.
It’s all good. Whatever you want.

So here are some on-site photos of pictures I drew at a party
and one sample that I made here alone here in my Studio.
Maybe you can get an idea of the style and flow
of my pictures even though you won’t be able
to see any details here.
I think I should make a New Year’s Resolution -
in 2009 I will give attention to holding that camera
still while photographing!

What wholesome girls. I drew on tshirts at a backyard pool party. Normal. Solid.

Here are a few of them:

Low Battery.
So Disappointing.

I did Fashion Sketches at Bloomingdales today. I don’t do Fashion Sketches often - Never used to advertise it. It was just something that
Some people knew I did, and, well…..

But now I want to do more Fashion Sketch Events.
In addition to regular Caricature Events and Face-Painting Events.
I’m really enjoying it.

3 Fashion-Sketch gigs ago, I developed a style that’s really good.
Today I decided to take photos - so I could start collecting lots of Samples.
I drew my first customer, took out my phone, tried to snap a photo,
But
Nothing. The screen said “Low Battery”.
The pictures were great. The people were great.
I had The Perfect Event for this. But no photos.
Low Battery.

Here are 3 practice pieces that I drew in a dark bar last night while
I was waiting for the Arkhams to come on. You can hear their wild music at www.myspace.com/thearkhams
There’s such a Style there. Some people really do it up.
Limited supplies. In the dark. And I still enjoyed drawing. I guess I’m real excited with it - something new:

And here are some Samples that I drew a while back -
when I designed this style:

And here are the original sketches from a long time ago when I was feeling my way for what would I draw for Fashion Sketches at an Event:
