Philadelphia Bar Drawings

Drew at a holiday party in Northern Libs, Phila Monday night. Worked with the always hilarious Pat Harrington on this one. Had a blast and came out with some funny faces. Hope they follow through with the plan to hang them throughout the bar.







Boooo ya!

From the Sketchbook

My cousin Ben and I did a recent collaborative drawing at a holiday party.

Ben lives in Burbank, CA and does storyboards for the cartoon Flapjack. Check out his blog. www.bentonconnor.blogspot.com


This is just a quick sketch of this guy I work with.

Holiday Party Caricatures

A couple couples form last nights holiday party!

The lighting was pretty rough so I didn't get too many quality photos .

Thanks everyone!

Holiday Party Carictaures

Had a good time yesterday drawing the employees at a local nursing home. Got to do the drawings in color for a change. It felt good to do something besides black and white.

  

Thanks to everyone there. Now I am off to draw at another holiday party tonight for family friends. More photos to come tomorrow.

Corporate Caricatures

Last night I drew at a company dinner party for a bunch of bankers. There were people there from all around the world. It made for a very diverse bunch of faces. I had a great time at this party, everyone got really into poking fun at one another. All in good spirits of course. I only snapped a couple photos with my phone due to low lighting.





Better yet, I stayed at the pub where the event was located after hours to watch the Phillies beat the Dodgers in Game 1.

Color Caricature

Just a quick marker drawing of a guy I work with.



Easy E!

Pool Party Color Caricatures

Had a great time today drawing in color at a pool party. Great people. Got some sunburn though.

The world famous Nick Jackson.

Prismacolor marker drawings.

New Logo!

Pen and Ink, painted with Photoshop.

Working on designing some new business cards and postcards with this new self caricature. I was going for more of a simple style this time that is easier for reproduction.

Media Caricatures

Some caricatures from a 2nd Saturday in Media, PA a couple of weeks ago.




Plus a random caricature from a party while back.

Trader Joe's Media Caricature

When I started painting signs at TJ's, I always wanted to make food hats on people. I finally got to test one out using myself as the subject.



I decided it's way easier to update my blog here on blogger. So I am gonna stick with it instead of the one on my website. Ahh the troubles of modern blogging. Speaking of modern. My wife Martha opened her Etsy shop called Modern Virtue. She crochets sweet hats,(no not food hats), but check it out!!!

MODERN Virtue

Great Friends. In color!

Still figuring out how it's going to work updating my blog here and synching it up with my website... hmmm? So until then, some new drawings from this weekend.




Greg Labold and Jeremy Gecker are two of my best friends and they paint faces at the Phila. Zoo. I will be drawing some caricatures there in my spare time on the weekends whenever possible this summer. Check out their blogs.

I played basketball yesterday and it was good.

Color Caricature

Prismacolor markers and color sticks. Commission by email photo.

Seriously working on my new website right now. Hopefully in a couple weeks it will be up and running. This blog will still exist within the website. I will finally have a recent gallery of caricatures from parties and from commissioned work, as well as a Caricatures of Me section (I have a ton already). Look out for it!

Holiday Party Caricatures

A holiday party a couple weeks ago. Got to draw all in color for a change.


Yes, I do have a strange way of holding the marker.







It was a great group of people, one of the most fun gigs I have ever had.
