I just returned from the 2011 International Society of Caricature Artists convention in St Pete's Beach Florida. This was my 4th year attending the convention and I had the time of my life. Above is the little piece of wall that I got to display the caricatures I made during the convention of other attending artists.
The art of caricature makes for a very interesting convention, as it is as much about observing and getting to know the people you are drawing as it is about humour and creating the caricature itself. It is social, entertaining and productive at the same time. Plus, you get to get to know other like minded artists, nerd out, and see their processes, and become friends for life.
This is my painting of Marlo Meekins as a fox.
This is Jert. This year much of his art had gore and blood. He also gets paint everywhere.
Alberto Gonzalez (above) and Dylan Glynn (below) both look like children and both have beards.
This is Christy, she is just like Link.
This is Sean Evans.
Sean Gardner is an angry bird.
