live caricature videos




in this video you can hear me mindlessly gabbing and chuckling at a typical heckler/funny guy type (these are QUITE common)...I concentrate on the drawing as much as possible and my mouth just stays pleasant and humors him until hopefully he goes away



the lighting on this vid is really crappy...it was a dimly lit event



oh and for the record I had NOTHING to do with the music selection :)

On the road...
just made it back to Atlanta after 2 weeks of working on the road.....I made a loop from Atlanta to Cincinnati to St.Louis, To Centralia, Mo. to Kansas city and back to Atlanta...here are some videos and pics from my trip




the Smoky Mountains


my favorite part of driving from Atlanta to Cincy is the Smokies

Cincinnati, OH



this is Taste of Cincinnati, about 500,00 drunks descend upon downtown Cincinnati every memorial day weekend to eat food drink beers and use portajohns

(this is a picture of two-handed mikey drawing Old School Rapper Big daddy Kane, whats funny is Mr. Kane had a woman with him that said his name at the beginning and end of all of her sentences...."Big Daddy Kane, can I go get a beer , Big daddy Kane?" and so on)



St.Louis, Mo.

my buddy Logan sporting his wedding tat...he surprised his newlywed wife on their wedding day with a tattoo of a hammerhead shark eating a womans arm off......what a lucky lady


Centralia, Mo.

this is the carnival ride of the future......





these are the people of Centralia Missouri's Anchor festival.... a festival named not for boat anchors but instead named for the metal anchors that hold telephone poles in place


Kansas City, Mo.

statue of Charlie parker in the 18th and vine district
