One thing I love the most about working at a retail caricature concession, is that during the slow season, or during down time ( in between customers ) I can work on anything I want!!! This is what i did today. Playing with guache for the first time.
Victor and Maria Payes. Two very fun people! I enjoy working with both of them. And, I see here in this video that Victor has an even more awesome rapier witt than I thought. We have this on-going joke at work, "No se parese..." Is something every caricature artist hates to hear at any point in the retail caricature process. That lil phrase is basically " I don't see the resemblance.." You can see how irritating that would be to a caricaturist. Well, let's watch the video...
This is Chloe's lil cousin who's name I don't know!
This is Meatball!
This is the one I call Pocahontas, lol. Chloe and her family make fun of her all the time. She's the darkest of her siblings, so before i actually drew her, they had me fake her out. I drew an all black stick figure. (Chloe's idea.) Here's the vid fake out.
Chloe's cutie mom! Her reaction was awesome! She needs to lay off the thigh master, see what I mean in the vid.
Here are some pics and vids from the last week of the year, and from the last Day of 2008. Enjoy, these are all doosies!!! I ended the year with a bang!!!
