Live Party/Event Caricatures
I created a unique way of doing caricatures, in that I draw faces and bodies, on clear plastic (acetate) with a black marker. I then color the reverse side with transparent markers and opaque crayons. Then I flip the completed art over, and slip it into a white matte, complete with a sunburst/rainbow design beneath the matte. It looks like a water color portrait encased in glass of you ( but there is no water color nor glass used). I carry with me 2 books (1 sports, 1 non-sports) of various poses. The people can then chose the pose, which I will draw. It keeps it fresh and more entertaining for them and me.
