#4 Wanda the Witch


I named her Wanda just because it sounds good. I have an aunt Wanda who is in no way a witch. (In case she reads this.)

#2 The Bat

What a weird creature! The bat is as much an icon of Halloween as witches & pumpkins.

HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN- #1 Frank

I've been itching to do one of these countdown posts where I'll be forced to do a drawing a day. I've decided to do it on Halloween and my theme will be Halloween characters and icons. Some may be scary and some may be funny but they will all be Halloweenish in some shape or form. I hope you enjoy.

Caricatures in the Park

I was recently asked if I'd be interested in doing some caricatures of kids for a local arts & crafts day in the park that our city sponsors. My first reaction was no since I hadn't done it in a long time but when they mentioned I'd be getting paid I became very interested all of a sudden. I took a job at Worlds of Fun in KC many years ago to learn the tricks and I have to give credit to Javier Gonzales and Linn Hernandez for trying to teach me . I have much respect for those guys and gals who do this full time. It's a tough job but what fun when you actually get the caricature right, which for me is not as often as I'd like. These are a few that turned out well and all the kids were so cute and fun! (I promise...I'll get better.)
