Coffee Mugs

Meeting your maker is a solemn undertaking.
Making a caricature is a solemn undertaking.
Meeting your caricaturist at a solemn meeting is the best part of the meeting.
Meeting your solemn undertaker is best left till later.

  1. Hey, I know these people! Excellent likenesses, Richard. I especially like the middle illo. Making a roundtrip along the outside contour offers a multitude of interesting line expressions. His facial expression is priceless.

  2. Great capture. Especially Barry. i think that it is the negative space that keeps the eye roving....it also supports the elusiveness of the character. The way you render the hair in all is amazing to me.

  3. These are very insightful to the scope and nature of our meetings. Of course you have to attend to know the full scope of the experience captured here. I agree that the middle one is telling in likeness and persona.

  4. I trust the ones with the thousand yard stare and not at all the ones who seem to be all there.
