Game on! Post-prom Caricatures

 It's alway a fun-fest when I get to draw alongside my friend Patrick Harrington. Every one tells me how mean he is! (usually when I draw with most other caricaturists, they say I'm the mean one!?!)  Here we are, at the Game-on!-themed after-prom. We drew from midnight to 3 am!!

You can see Pat's style below:
Front of school all gussied up:



So..we were set up in the Mario area, such cute decor! I was at the table behind Pat.
And here are some of my drawings!





They gave us HOAGIES from Ro Lynn Deli :-)

Here's the view from my easel: (the tarot readers are in the black/gold alcove behind us)



I actually made THREE reels on IG for this event: Reel 1.   Reel 2.    Reel 3.
Thanks for having us, SV Class of 2025! :-D

Wedding Silhouettes at a beach marina venue in Lewes DE!

 

This very nice young couple booked me last year to do silhouettes for their May wedding reception, and it was hard to wait many months for it to arrive! 
This is their full-length couple silhouette that I do after the event, from a photo I'll take at the reception. 

The venue was a very popular spot on the marina in Lewes DE, Irish Eyes Restaurant...so I was in my home state, albeit the other end! Of course I had to pop over to the beach for a little while upon arrival. 
The ceremony and reception were both on the second floor overlooking the marina:

Ready to cut!

Below:I do like using a bar-height table for silhouettes, because it's easier for folks to sign the guest book, they don't have to lean over so far. 

Here are a few subjects with their silhouettes: some couples wanted to be on the same backing card, others didn't.


The guest book is a cherished treasure for the couple. and it allows them to see all my work--they are definitely too busy to see it while it's happening at the reception.
First, the bride and groom: their bust-length silhouettes go on the first page in the guest book, and the duplicates go in a frame I display on my table:
Here's a few pages worth of guest silhouettes:




Here is what the floor looks like while I am working!
I also enjoyed working alongside one of my favorite DJs--Sky Brady! Now he has a silhouette to go with the caricature I did of him a few years ago.


Thank you for having me, Ally & Kyle!
The bride left me this wonderful feedback afterwards: 

Thank you so much for everything!!! You truly are amazing and I’m so happy we booked with you!!

 It was a huge hit and I would recommend it to anybody! Our silhouette is AMAZING!!! I will cherish it forever.

Mini-THON caricatures!

 


Back at this local high school, for the umpteenth time thanks to a wonderful art teacher...who is retiring! Thank you Faith, for many years of having me at this fabulous fundraiser for pediatric cancer.
And thanks to Donna Klein, fellow caricaturist, for these two photos of me, mid-caricature!
The three lovely young ladies I was in the midst of drawing, can be seen below:
A few more:


And finally some teachers got in on the fun:
Thanks for having me and I hope next year's committee calls me!
