I forgot to mention one more Complication. It’s when people ask me to predraw scenes. Most people are happy with slim or cute or muscular Bodies, so I only have to draw one per gender and age. But still, the predrawn scene should take into account the age of the guest ~ 5-year-old girls don’t have bodies like 15-year-old girls. And 15-year-old girls don’t dress like 50-year-old women. And there are just as many variations for boys. A cute little 5-year-old boy doesn’t look right with the body of a 15-year-old boy.
But if my client gives me a chance to point this out, it’s still complicated. Because I might get hired to print up ten papers each for several different scenes. This means I will be spending time interrupting the drawing-Entertainment to look through for the right paper. And if mats are also involved…..
Oh.
What works best for most Parties is Direct Caricatures.
Face-Only. Black and White Or Color ~ Artist’s Choice in the Moment based on what she sees, what she draws, and what would best Entertain the guests who are there. It’s great on individual papers, and it’s Super if those Beautiful Mats are included.

I recently walked in to a magnificent house where the Mother had gone all-out to make her 5-year-old son feel very special. Look at the cake and table-setting.
The children felt like they belonged there. Like it was made just for them. I felt so happy to be part of it. T-Rex. Stegasaurus. Diplodicus. Bracchiosaurus. Allosaurus. Pterodactyl.T-Rex.

What’s an Artist to do ~
Drawing for hours, surrounded by people, and this guy sits down and
says “Draw me with lots of hair.”
What’s an Artist to do ~ ~

Like it isn’t hard enough to get a good likeness, one after another after another, person after person after person, without them telling you not to draw whatever it is that you see.
So I just draw My Response to his request
instead of ‘following orders’. A Caricature Artist
has to see and interpret more than just shapes.
