Some of you lurkers have privately requested caricatures of certain celebrities, well anyone that donates and has a request will get it filled as a THANK YA.

With apologies to Steve Silver




Here is one I drew up the other night. Couple gave me complete freedom, but they wanted something I hadn't done before...So thanks to Keelan's links to the School of Suck, and my latest obsession with The Kim Possible cartoon....well, here ya go.
They were really pleased with it by the way...
The other young lad wanted me to draw him up as Darth Vader, so I took some liberties with him, and delivered a NON-Conformist Disney-cature, and he LOVED it.
Wish I had the time to do this Darth Vader body in the parks...

Steve Irwin


All I can say is Tragic. I became more aware and attached to the man by association with my wife. She had a big appreciation for his dedication to animal conservation, and his enthusiasm for educating the general public on it. So for the past 8 years I've been following his career, sometimes toungue in cheek, but always with respect.
His death is a loss to not only his family, but to the animals he was looking out for. My heart and prayers lie with his eight year old daughter, three year old son, and wife. God Bless ya Croc Man.

Caricature Mania

Here are some recent Caricatures I've served up hot and fresh at work.
Some of them are more exaggerated than others. I am trying to push the limit a bit with the Disney guests. But they are usually here for the cute and cuddly cartoons.....





This one I forgot to snap a picture of the kid, but I thought the body was cute enough to share...

This family wanted to be pirates from the movie, but wanted the scene to be continuos once lined up side by side. A bit challenging, but I was satisfied with the reults....
