Small Town Missouri fair

I took this video on the Sunday morning at the fair. The town square was basically turned into a church variety show, with real cheesy Jesus music and reverends talking about the churches and sin. This was a play about Jesus versus suicide. Quite frankly it scared the crap out of me.






I worked this fair with Anthony and Zach, two old friends from the first theme park I drew at Six flags St.Louis.

This year I've begun to take on the challenge of new mediums in the chair. For 10 years I've drawn live caricatures almost exclusively in graphite and airbrush, so I thought it was time to lean a more portable method, marker and color stix. It's gotten me out of my comfort zone and makes me think more about execution . I've got a long way to go before I'm happy with my abilities with this medium, but i thought I'd share a few from this particular weekend anyway. I know there's a lot of dude's out there that really know how to use this stuff, please give me some tips and comment's. These drawings both took about 10 to 15 minutes

#151 12 gauge blues




12 gauge blues was my band when i lived in St.Louis Mo.
It started in 1998 and lasted until 2003. We played lots of shows at dive bars , "punk" venues, basements and nightclubs....We all had Jobs so the furthest we traveled was Columbia, mo..
It was all for fun and artistic expression ,although we liked getting paid, it rarely happened.
I miss performing but I have some really good memories.

follow this link to hear a 1999 recording of
"Still wanna die" by 12 gauge blues
originally performed by Cheetah Chrome and Jeff Dahl

#145


These are 2 Actresses from Andy Warhol movies. I went to a really big Andy Warhol retrospective at the Stelijk museum CS. It had 80 or so movies and videos projected onto big white walls. A lot of the films were just 15 or 20 minutes of a single persons face talking or staring . Like a video potrait. I had my sketchbook with me and drew some of the faces.... these were the only ones i liked
