Warm Up's/demos


I have been down at the JBR Market over the last few days, it's going well, but sitting out in 45 degree heat trying to draw is a bit of a challenge ! IT IS HOTTT !

To drum up business I do demo's, usually based on someone I had seen walking around earlier, that I thought would make a good caricature. Here are a few of my demo's, and a caricature of a good friend of mine, and talented artist Simon Street. Check out his website in my links list if you get a chance....
