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.

Haven’t been going anywhere in the past week, just working on artwork. Above is a photo of a flock of artwork done in about 3 hours today.

I’m going through boxes and found this flyer from the 1980 Atlanta Comic-Con.

Some drawings from this past weekend….

I ran across ‘The Monkees Go Mod’ while perusing a bookstore and I thought I’d share a couple pages of cartoon artwork from the 1967 book. Both are drawn by Dick Hodgins, Jr. If the style has a Dennis the Menace type look, that’s because Hodgins was an assistant to Hank Ketcham drawing Ketcham’s strip ‘Half Hitch’ and helping with the Dennis strip.

Hodgins’ dad was also a cartoonist. For years he was staff cartoonist for The Orlando Sentinel in Orlando, Florida. While at the Sentinel he drew a history of Orlando comic strip and a ton of other art. Later Hodgins, Sr. joined his friend Jim Ivey at Jim’s ‘The Cartoon Museum’ to teach cartooning classes. I was one of the lucky ones to take one of those classes. I’ll have to post some Hodgins, Sr. art sometime.

Caricatues from this past weekend!!! Martha below was shy and modeled the caricatures sans herself.

Here’s some new art I’m doing for Swampy’s Florida. The new strip will be up Tuesday which begins a little trip for Swampy, Pasco Pete and Bunny. Starting a lot of trouble is Ma Watson who arrives looking to hunt Swamp Apes.

This is a caricature illustration I did a few weeks ago for Donna Hartsfield, above. I met her at a restaurant near in Winter Park, Florida, and produced the entire piece there.  I didn’t want to post the photo until the recipient received it. Jeff was presented with the art last weekend, so here’s the photo of Donna and the art.

I found myself making more caricatures on July 4th. The one above was had watercolor added. The one below is a bit light because of the lighting when photographed.

Drew a mess of caricatures Saturday evening… and night!
