Prom Caricatures! (*NOT* the after-prom!)

 I do way more post-proms than actual proms, so this evening it was so enjoyable for me to see all the high school seniors dressed up! And to see the new male hairstyle that is the current rage ( like a llama!)

The prom was held in the gigantic ballroom at Bally's Casino in Dover, DE.

I was asked to offer the students a regular size caricature, or a Mini-caricature...most of them chose regular size: (8.5 x 11)

This young lady wanted a Mini-caricature WITH her big sunglasses, I made that work for her:

And finally, my client and her daughter, who got a MINI-caricature:

I also got to work with my friend Schay Glover! Fun night indeed!!

Thank you for having us caricature artists! :-)

Prom Caricatures on the Football Field!

 Some years I draw at a lot of post-proms... and some years not. This is one of those years, obviously, throwing hundreds of high school seniors in an indoor space with bounce houses and other fun things to do is still probably risky. So instead,  I've been invited to a few actual proms, as opposed to the post-prom. This school tented up their ball field and invited its glamorous seniors to party and enjoy themselves as if it were the finest country club. And they did!

I worked alongside colleague and friend Julie B, trying to get as many kids done in a short time frame as possible... so only two caricature pics!!!

 

Those masked lady caricaturists are at it again!

Silhouettes at a high school Prom!

After a hectic afternoon doing caricatures at a nearby university, I headed to this popular restaurant which was hosting a Hollywood-themed prom. I've also done caricatures here before, under this same rotunda, so that's what the staff was expecting me to do. I said, no, tonight is something different! Silhouettes!

This couple arrived early for a photo shoot so they were my first silhouette subjects! I never did get my own photo of them...they had just spent a good half hour posing for their own photographer!

Once the couples started arriving, my scissors flew along. 

They're all cut out of one piece of 4 x 6 rectangular paper, into a heart-shaped couple, romantically looking onto each others' eyes. Awwwww!

I cut few of the chaperones too!

I wore my feather boa as my one concession to Hollywood glamour!

Thanks for having me, WCS!
