Oh - the synchronicity of…..
How do you spell that?
Even though I tried to check at http://thesaurus.com/
(another word to s p e l l ),
I still have no idea.
Does spelling count?

Anyway, I was impressed with it today. Serendipity.
Because I had randomly opened a folder to find some of my Samples
to post here, and I came up with these pictures from a Corporate Event
where I had been asked to draw Black and White pictures.
I usually work in Color, but I was also hired to draw Black and White Caricatures at a University
tonight. This very night. It’s good for me to see them - as a Warm-Up for tonight’s event (which will be the Sam Gennaro Event - a yearly Celebration about Italians).

This is what I like to call Black and White Caricatures.
Still uses a bit of Color. But in this case, the Color makes the pictures get finished faster -
which is what these Clients were looking for - to get more faces drawn during the hours that we had arranged:

Drawing What’s Important

August 14th, 2011

Tonight’s gig was interesting. My Agent sent me to a house that was down the block from the house where I grew up. Arrived a few minutes early, parked beside a house where I used to play with a little girl named Valerie.

and….. everything changes. It was just another house for me. Like having been sent Anywhere. Except traveling to get there was real easy.

Black/White Party. I arrived early and practiced a few in the car. it was fun because I was getting in to the Exaggerations just the right amount.

A good time was had by all.

I recently made some more drawings for the East Coast Brown Derby
Restaurant. Some of their requests are more famous than others.
In this batch, I recognized Dom DeLouise.

They like the Caricatures to be rather tame - more like the old-style
Caricatures. So this is what I drew - along with the Reference Photos
that they provided for me:
