My busiest month has arrived.  July:  The month of summer festivals and county fairs.  Kids and adults alike love to get drawn. These drawings take less than 5 minutes each.  Let me know if you want me to draw at your event!

I take my little portable drawing table, grab a couple of folding chairs and set up camp.  Along come the people and I’m busy for hours.

park1 Located in Altoona, IA, Adventureland is the destinations of many Iowans for a day of fun, or more accurately a day of spending money.  Actually, that’s all good with me as long as that money goes to us poor caricature artists.  We get paid by commission…  There was a day this week that I made $3 to take home.  Not even enough to pay for the gas to get me to and from the place.

So, on those days where I sit and wait, I sit and draw.  This is a page from one such occasion.  The face at the top is a fellow artist while the other two are people I saw in the park.  The medium is ball point pen.
