Art for Delhi Comic Con exclusive poster Tomorrow is the start of Delhi Comic Con at the NSIC Grounds in Okhla, South New Delhi. I’ll be there all three days signing stuff, doing drawings and making a presentation on Sunday. I did the above illustration as a Delhi Comic Con exclusive for the show. It’s an imaginary MAD cover featuring Alfred as the title character from the Bollywood film “Enthiran” (“Robot” in English) starring a well-known and loved actor here in India, Rajinikanth. If you’ve never seen the movie “Enthiran”, here’s a link to a clip that will blow your mind. I have to thank… READ MORE

The past weekend I conducted my first ever out-of-town workshop… and it was WAAAAY out of town–London, England! The class of twelve included a wide range of experience and levels of skill. It went from some who were basically beginners who were interested in doing caricatures all the way to some local caricature legends. All were enthusiastic and we had a great time. The workshop was over a Saturday (10-7) and Sunday (9-5), and included: Lecture on caricature and my approach and my MAD process Demos of my live work, illustration, inking and coloring techniques Lighting rounds of live caricatures of each other Observations… READ MORE

Q: You seem to constantly be traveling… when do you get any work done? A: I know, it seems like I am never at home, doesn’t it? Comic Cons, the occasional speaking engagement, the NCS Reubens, etc… it also seems to me like I’m never home. It’s a challenge to juggle everything, that’s for sure. I try very hard to get work done to a point where I either do not need to bring any with me, or need just a little bit of time on a trip to do some work to keep from falling too far behind. For example, I had to pull… READ MORE

Walking about London I still see quite few t-shirts and memorabilia for sale of the late Amy Winehouse. They reminded me of the time around 2008 or so that a fellow caricaturist here in the UK emailed me these pictures from British weekly gossip magazine Heat: Yes, that’s my caricature of Amy Winehouse taken directly from this blog the fan in the article is trying to get her to sign. Here’s the original scan: Gotta love that disgusted look on her face. I get that a lot. I know the article credits the fan for doing the drawing, but let’s not jump to conclusions. The… READ MORE

In keeping with a longstanding and annoying tradition, I’m squeezing in a little work while on my trip to London and India. Nothing too taxing, just inking some illustrations for the as-yet-unannounced second MAD spoof of a classic children’s book. Don’t worry, I’ve been having plenty of fun. Sorry for the lack of posts this past week. Staring Sunday there will be more activity here. Besides the mailbag next week I’ll be doing a report on my caricature workshop taking place this weekend here in London, and of course my time at Comic Con Dehli. READ MORE
