So we just find out that next week we are selected to do caricatures at a private party for a major sports team.
The company that is having us selected us from a group of over 25 artists in S.E,. Michigan that do the same thing as us. They can have anybody and we are the selected caricature company.
So honored!! We are so stoked!

I haven't posted here much so I thought I'd take a moment to check in. Yes I am still entertaining at events all over Michigan.

This summer I've been as far north as the Gladwin, Midland area for events as well as going as far south as Toledo, Detroit, Ann Arbor. The Venues are as diverse as the MGM Grand and Comerica Park To Campgrounds and backyards.

We were asked to come back For Detroit Tigers Opening Day as well as a private party for the Detroit Tigers ( drawing some of the players). We also entertained guests at the Detroit Red Wings home opener..

A surprise development were the amount of pets I drew this summer. Off the top on my head I must have drawn over 250 dogs and cats with a Horse and a donkey thrown in for good measure.

More fun events coming up yet this year. I hope to run into you in my travels.

I've been blessed with a good deal of work lately. Here is a recent gift commission that was done last week. The couple sent me a photo taken at the Kentucky Derby.
I thought it was too much fun.

A note from a wonderful Bride, Lindsay, about her wedding yesterday. Made my day..

"John,

I can’t fully put into words what it meant to us and our guests that you were a part of our day. It was the highlight of the day and so many people have told me how incredibly talented and memorable the experience was. Just like the first time we met!!

I hope we can stay in touch and we can support you at other places you are drawing.

Thank you from bottom of my heart!

Lindsay "

I had a great time doing Caricatures for a Detroit Tigers family event following their game on Saturday. It was an honor to Draw Some OF The Players...

NEW PRODUCT: Here's a cool piece I had the pleasure of illustrating not long ago. Dan-O's new "Pantry Pack" features my illustration for "Little Danny" flipping burgers at a kettle grill.

There's something so cool about seeing your art on a product that goes to hundreds of thousands of homes. Dan-O's is such and awesome product. I use it every day! Yum, Yum Get you some! ( I illustrated that image of Dan-O by the QR code as well)

We were selected by the owners of the Detroit Tigers to provide several artists to entertain corporate sponsor guests for the Official Detroit Tigers Opening Day event. PAWS is pictured here "pinch hitting" for one of our artists on break.
Caricatures are always so much fun and your guests will love them.
