RUFF Sketch of Tough Dog!

Kathy loves her Great Danes!
Colonel is quite the trooper!
Surviving many surgeries and battling onward, Kathy commissioned me to do this Marine soldier cartoon concept to commemorate his fortitude. She sent me pix of his scar that went up the length of his belly...
I did 2 of her other dogs and she has them printed out 4 ft x 2.5 ft hanging prominently in what she affectionately calls "Harringtoon Hall"
I always LOVE drawing dogs and This was a LOT of fun!!

Clients comments: (Kathy writes BIG)

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT


GENIUS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Thanks Kathy!

WEDDING CARICATURES

I had the great pleasure of doing wedding caricatures for the fun-loving Kelsey & Dan and their family and friends-mostly all fans of the crazier No-Mercy style I like to execute (pun intended)!
I knew it was gonna be fun-when a downpour came and while I was in the men's room, a guest came in soaking wet laughing and umm...wiping his wet areas, protesting he didn't pee himself no matter how it looks and he shudda brought an umbrella...funny guy and he was the 1st one to sit in my chair so I tried to commemorate the lavatory exchange-he nearly wet himself again when he saw the pic!
Fun-loving CRAZY folks were laughing and encouraging me to get more & more twisted thru the night-requesting bizarre things, flu-shot buttocks and Frankenstein scars.....
It was a BLAST and one of the funnest wedding events I did last year!- my only regret is that my memory card in my camera got misplaced and it took me so long to find & post these....(and that I don't check my fb very often...sorry bout that...)

 Fresh from the Mens Room.....









 Let's just say the "grab" was not improvised in the least....





 The lovely Kelsey and not-quite-so-lovely-but-in-a-masculine-way-kinda...Dan

 Mum & Dad







 Again...NOT improvised...well maybe just a little in the coloring( not quite sooo green)






Thanks Kelsey & Dan!

Super Cool Project! SNEAK PEAK!

Having a BLAST working on 55+ characters for an AWESome project that for now is "confidential"-.

Of the 20 or so that I've done so far, these are the tamest and least offensive (to the easilly offended) of the lot! All I can say for now is it's probably in the R rated category and one of the coolest, funnest projects I've been fortunate to be a part of and they LOVE my craAzier stuff!...so soon as I am permitted to give the details, I will!

MAZEL TOV RYAN!

One of my New Years Resolutions is to try to blog more and blog currently.
This is the FIRST time I ever blogged about an event on the same day of doing the event.
This was a Super fun Bar Mitzvah with fun faces and great people!-5 straight hours of drawing & laughing and laughing and drawing!







































Interesting requests, from bath tubs to flower children to running from plane to plane, and spontaneous laughter!
Thanks Michele & Ian, and Congrats Ryan! Mazel Tov!!
