Some more photos, this time from THE GREAT NEW YORK STATE FAIR....
This kid liked to cook. I asked him what he liked to cook and he said: "I dunno." Note the mouse.

Our first sketch of the day was usually a mentally/physically challenged person with a helper wheeling them around. It just became routine - the people were always nice.
This girl really really really loved pigs. Her and her mom really really really loved the sketch.
When asked what body they would like their kids in their parents said: "They like to go swimming." The multiple swimming sketch can be a baffler to caricaturists. I was proud of how well this one came out - and quick!
Even though it's blurry this was one of my favorite body/situations, they wanted tennis and basketball. They loved it and bought a mat, their friends were rolling because it looked just like them.
These guys own a farm and so naturally I drew them tractor racing each other. The woman always wins.
This kid wanted to be drawn "in baseball" as a pitcher, specifically. When prodded, he neither played, watched, or cared anything about baseball and it's a mystery why he wanted it, but he and his parents loved it, bought a mat and gave a tip.
This was a demo drawing of a kid I couldnm't resist drawing when he walked by.
I colored the sketch when he left and later in the day his parents came back and bought it.
I like this likeness.

Parents, please, please, please do not ask your caricature artist to put names on the sketch. I hate doing this but this parent was insistent so I caved. (And got paid.)
