Wellness Expo Caricatures!

Had a fun, crisp September day drawing lots of caricatures at a Wellness Expo for county employees, alongside colleague Alexander The Art!

 Matriarch!

Four of mine, and one of Alex's on the nearby bulletin board:

 Families:

 Moms and sons:

 Some of the volunteers:

Yay! that was fun!

Grand Opening Caricatures!

My caricatures were added to a fun Grand Opening celebration for a new restaurant called Choolaah! In addition to the tasty experience for the customers,  each caricature went home and then served as branding, since they all had the company logo and colors on them! The fresh and vegan-specialty Indian food went over well, too ;-)

Thanks to Choolaah for booking me!

Wedding caricatures at Winterthur!

Winterthur Museum is one of the premier destinations in Delaware for arts and culture, but it's also a wedding venue! The welcome center becomes an elegant glass-walled banquet hall. 

Below: I was able to get a photo of the bridal couple's first dance before I started caricaturing, then I didn't see them again til much later when they sat for me;

but even then, I didn't get a photo of them! I drew them while I had them, in ink, but then colored it after they'd rejoined their guests.

 On to some guests!

Above: No, the photobomber ISN'T in the caricature! But they'd wanted him to be...and he'd chickened out. Too bad!

Below: Caricature reaction!!

Congrats, Katie and Brian! Thanks for having me!

Arts Festival caricatures!

 Freckles! Glasses! Gap teeth! Cowlicks! I can draw them all...

Hummelstown Arts Fest 2017 is happy to have me back several years running now...I was so busy I didn't really have time to take photos, but here are a few. The girl below told me to "make me crazy"!

Anniversary party caricatures!

 This seniors residence likes to party with my caricatures! But these two ladies were shy. 

I'm usually set up in their very welcoming lobby.

This lady's name was Lorna---so I had to draw her WITH HER COOKIE!!! 

Harvest Festival 2017 Caricatures!

 For the second year, I drew caricatures at the Michall Daimion Plumbing and Heating booth at the Malvern Harvest Festival. Anyone who "liked" their Facebook page got a free caricature, so I helped them bump up their social media presence, along with having a great day on the street!

And, once again, this band played a great selection of songs oompah-style!

Barn wedding reception caricatures!

What a beautiful late-summer afternoon for a wedding! 

The reception was held in this rustic yet elegantly appointed Chester County, PA barn...can you see where the caricaturist is set up?

Yes, right next to the antique cast iron bathtub COOLER!

Here's an interior view:

And this was my view, behind my sitters, a lovely garden.

This wedding reception was booked by one of the bridesmaids as her wedding gift to the couple. What a wonderful idea!

Now for some caricatures; I drew from golden hour to twilight.

First up: Yes, this lady had her pug with her. So of course, he got dog-i-catured!

 

 A caricature reaction!

My finale was the bride and groom! Congrats to you both!
