Caricature Express

Cleaning out my Office today. Not only is my Computer Desktop full of photos, but so is my Physically Tangible Desktop. And Floor. And Closet. And Walls. And Boxes. From the days before we had cellphones with cameras.

My Artwork has become easier and better since then. I remember how hard I worked, how I suffered to make these pictures. But I want to remember them. Because it was through the suffering that I developed the work I do today. To see them is like coaching myself. To remember the details I worked so hard to develop.

I’m going to post here some a few of those photos. Because I want to remember how I drew the Nose on that particular day:

One of my Agents wanted photos of my work for their new Office Walls.
This is what I came up with - a smattering from several recent gigs:

wow - What a beautiful Skyline. Sometimes the scenes in the places I draw
are breathfilling. This scene, for example, was seen at a small party. In a community room at a NYC apartment building. Not an especially extravagant place - just nice. Yet, the Skyline….

Going to so many places for work
makes it possible for me to take note,
makes it possible for me to notice
the difference scenes, decor, people…..

Ooops - I guess I should have photographed the shoes BEFORE

Did you know that I do Face-Painting as well as Caricatures? Well, I do….

Last night I did Face-Painting for the cutest Pre-School Graduation. I arrived early and had some time to play around with some ideas before the event.
I came up with a New Idea. Hark! A New Idea!

As of now, I’ve only done Either Caricatures Or Face-Painting at any one time.
Switching Setups back and forth feels crazy. But it could be Fun to try it this new way - the new idea I just came up with. (Stay tuned:-)

I can just Draw the ‘face-painting’ Onto the caricature. Like this:

Small extra fee because of the
extra skills and doubled concentration that this requires.
