Caricatures at Summer Kick-off party!

This was a summer kick-off pool party for residents of a very nice rental community. It was hot, so my lovely client (who found me via Gigsalad) put me in the lounge area with AC (for me AND my subjects!)

You can see their hilarious caricature reactions HERE. 

Here's the Ambiance Reel!

haha...

My client had this to say on Gigsalad afterwards: ( THANK YOU!!!)

5 stars Emily was a hit!!! 

Our staff and residents absolutely loved Emily! Her caricatures were amazing, and she had a line from start to finish. She was friendly, engaging, and made everyone feel special. The drawings were a huge hit, and guests are still talking about them. We would definitely recommend Emily for any event and would love to have her back.

KOA caricatures by the pool!

 Family caricatures!

Couple caricatures!

Big kid caricatures!

Summer Pool Party caricatures!

They lined up before I started! :-) This was at a members' anniversary party at a local community pool, on a hot night perfect for dipping. You can see the band under the blue tent. 

Kept busy drawing all ages, and drew to the sounds of Beatle and Tom Petty covers!

The lifeguards got drawn at the very end, and as I walked out, I could see they'd hung it in the office already! :-)

Brownie Troop gets caricatures at the pool!

At a year-end party for a local troop at a community pool, I drew all the girls first. Here are two of them: 

 ...then some brothers!

 then the leader!

The pool manager liked my work enough to ask me to come back two nights later, for a summer pool party for the members! :-)

Family Reunion Caricatures

I love drawing at family reunions. The mix of generations, and how people stayed bonded together across distances, is really intriguing to me. Not to mention the variety of related faces!

The gathering was held at a lovely rural home. I set up my easel poolside and drew the family matriarch first:

She had a whole bunch of children and grandchildren:

Hahah, nice reaction!

 Below:The host and hostess were completely wonderful and hospitable. (Thanks again, you two!)

After everyone got drawn with their significant other, I stayed longer to do a few family groups! How much fan is that!?! (Alot!)

Have I said lately HOW MUCH I LOVE MY JOB???
