Q: Are you going to do more workshops in the future? A: Yes, most definitely. Except this time I am taking my show on the road. in 2017 I am going to do several workshops in different cities around the country, and possibly even overseas. I am going to announce the dates of my first traveling workshop next week, as soon as I have this second one in the books. It will be in January sometime, and the location… Orlando, Florida! Check the blog next week for more details. Thanks to A Lot of People for the question. If you have a question you want… READ MORE

Q: Will your book “Sketch o’ the week Vol 1” be available on Amazon like your “Mad Art of Caricature”? A: No, because Sketch o’the Week Vol. 1 isn’t really a book, not in the official sense. It’s just a self-published collection of sketches.
