Live Painting


I did this at a bar in downtown San Diego that schedules nights for artists to come and paint for people to watch, enjoy and possibly buy the work. I dont actually know how to paint very well so I just used the ol' marker and color sticks on a 14''x14" peice of wood for this one. Sold!!

Sea World

I was in San Diego working at Sea World this month. The first time I've drawn in a theme park since October, so it was real fun getting back into it and being with other artists. I'll be moving there from Buffalo in May, to be the new supervisor of caricatures. I cant wait!

This first sketch is of one of their previous Park Managers who was in the park w/ his kids. So I served him up somethin fierce.

I think I was having too much fun w/ the bowl-cut kid and wasnt paying attention to getting the right skin color, went a little too dark.

San Diego Zoo!


Lots and lots of drawing full color bodies of people with animals at the zoo, its just ridiculous! How 'bout basketball w/ an elephant, or cheerleading w/ a polar bear? You gotta get creative or else its boring. I like this kids expression so I got the photo, but I was busy drawing kids hanging out w/ pandas so I didnt get any more.

At Legoland
