Caricature Express

I’m getting so good at this Career. Drawing, Getting around…… I even thought the drive all the way down NYC was okay on the day that I took these photos. I had driven from my Caricature gig in the Bronx all the way down to the Bitter End in Soho - just to see the Arkhams. I barely noticed the NYC traffic.

The Bitter End - It’s been around for a long time - Since the days of Light Shows. But how did this happen - When I tried to photograph the Arkhams with my new iphone, it still came out looking like a Light Show. Even though there wasn’t a Light Show going on. And I certinaly don’t have special speeds on the little iphone camera:

You would have thought that I had had enough drawing - just having worked a 3-hour party. The Arkhams energetic music managed to hold my interest. But I drifted off into just looking at some of the other bands that played that night. Here’s a picture of a girl I drew:

And here’s a picture of a bass that really held my interest. It was sooooo horizontal. And the strings were so noticeable:

It’s not unusual for newspapers to do stories at my gigs. But it is unusual for me to get to see them.

I was so lucky that my client from the Harry Potter gig sent me the section of the Morris County (NJ) Daily Record that showed a picture of my work:

Barnes & Noble had hired me for first night that the new Harry Potter book would be available. And the line of people wanting Caricatures to remember this special night - it started in the middle of the huge store where I was stationed, extended back to one wall, and then continued all around the store! They were in costumes. The excitement was contagious. Wow!
