It was the training area for carpenters and electricians, and it was exactly the right size for me, my easel and two chairs; the open-stud walls let everyone see in. I reiterate, I never know where I am going to end up drawing! :-)

Open house amid the open stud walls
Last night I drew prospective students at a vo-tech school's open house...and they put me in my own little unfinished room!!

As the Yankees beat the Orioles, some fab faces were caricatured...
It was as if the caricature gods sent us ready-made candidates last night in Baltimore!
These two buddies totally enjoyed their caricature experience with me. They heckled each other the whole time as I drew each one, and both exploded in laughter as they saw the results. After I finished, one took pictures on his cell phone to send to friends! That made me feel so good!
The airplane on the top was added when they told me they were air-traffic controllers ;-O
This couple were a hoot. Facial hair is always funny. They were being drawn by me as the next photo shows what my colleague Gary Smith was dealing with on my left...
...crazy vacationing Brits with beer!!! In fact, they were so crazy that all the passersby recognized them as the same-sex kissing couple displayed on the KissCam during the game!!! They certainly got their fifteen minutes of fame in Baltimore!
I asked them why, since it was their first American baseball game, didn't they buy Yankees stuff to take back to London? One of them relied, "the British always back the underdog"---fitting , as the Orioles ARE in last place.

Family Entertainment Day....
Yesterday, my first out of three gigs was an outdoor promotional event at a shopping center, my second time there this summer. I was paired with a strolling magician this time. I drew all ages at this one!
She was game for a caricature!
This lovely lady, a native New Yorker, told me my caricatures should be in Sardi's!
Mom-and-daughter caricature fans, I drew the girl on her own as well. Mom had been drawn at my previous event here.
Two teenage brothers: one wanted to be drawn, the other had to be browbeaten into it. Can you guess which one is which?
When I drew the youngest sister of this trio, I told the mom she reminded me of Vivien Leigh's baby photo( Scarlett in Gone With the Wind, I'm a big fan). I pulled up the photo on my Blackberry, and she was astounded!
