Was doin’ the caricature thing tonight in Orlando at the Orange County Regional History Center.

While on UStream today had a number of visitors and we got talking about music. I made some mention of attendee Terisa Glover’s dog, Sparky, providing banjo music at her store and the sketch above came to mind.

This came to mind also after learning that Cedric Hohnstadt is showing various drawings from his ‘Dueling Pigs’ site. I contributed one back in October.

I was a guest speaker at fellow cartoonist George Pieper’s cartooning class. The day earlier I learned about Cedric Hohnstadt’s March Sketch A Day and decided to stress the class to sketch by everyone participating in creating the sketch I was going to do for the day. So above is the marriage of suggestions cats, Australia and gold.

Here’s Marnie and Pedro! I usually draw folks while they’re talking and I miss a big smile like his shown above. But then I would’ve missed his love of superheroes (Especially Green Lantern and NOT Rob Liefeld!).

Here are a couple sketches I did at the monthly Merry Philosophers meeting in Orlando. I used to attend this meeting 6 years ago and got away from it. Mostly because they met so far away from where I am. It so happened this meeting coincided with me needing to pick up my father at the airport, so I combined the two. My old friend Jim Saunders came along, too. Had to scoot out early to pick up my father whose plane ended up being delayed and I found myself waiting at a nearby Denny’s for the plane to land.

Here’s a color caricature I did of these two lovely ladies today. Met them at Beefy King in Orlando and drew and painted the whole thing there.

Here’s a color caricature I quickly did Sunday of Isabella.

Above is a pile of work I knocked out at the local coffee shop in about 2 hours.

Some drawings from this past weekend….
