Limited Holiday Caricatures Available!

November 21st, 2018 | Posted in General

EDIT: Well that did not take too long. I’ve afraid all 15 spots are spoken for. My apologies if you did not get a chance to get one. I usually do not do this sort of thing outside of comic book conventions, and even then I only do these full color brush pen and Copic marker illustrations on the blank MAD sketch covers (which are much smaller than this). However just for the holidays I’m making 15 of these personal caricature commissions available. I’m doing them on 11″ x 14″ bristol, in brush and various pens, colored with Copic markers and a touch of colored… READ MORE

Workshop in Amsterdam?

November 20th, 2018 | Posted in General

I’ve been working on trying to get a workshop scheduled in Amsterdam on June 21-23, and it is proving to be very problematic. Mostly it is the outrageous costs of the meeting space and hotels in the area. I will certainly have to charge quite a bit more for the class, although thanks to the per person fees lunch will be included every day as well as coffee, tea, snack breaks, sweets, fruit, croissants, etc. They put on a good event, but it’s expensive. So I am polling my followers, let me know if you would have interest in a workshop the weekend of June… READ MORE

The Game’s Almost Up, Watson!

November 16th, 2018 | Posted in General

It’s elementary, my dear Watson… there are only six of my limited edition Sherlock Holmes prints left! Numbers 445 to 450. I have zero artist proofs of this one, so that’s it. If you were thinking of getting one for that big Sherlock fan in your life, you’ve been warned! READ MORE

Dead People’s Right of Publicity?

November 15th, 2018 | Posted in General

One of the blog posts I get the most responses and questions about is this article I wrote back in 2006 about the “right of publicity”, which is a celebrity/famous person’s right to protect the value of their likeness… it’s a kind of copyright of their face. Obviously this is something caricaturists are concerned with. Can an artist do a caricature of a celebrity and sell it, and not get into trouble over it with the celebrity in question? If you read the article the answer is, as with most questions about the law, “it depends”. The other day I got an email asking about… READ MORE

My Stan Lee Story

November 13th, 2018 | Posted in General

After his passing yesterday, it seems like everyone is posting their story of where/how they met the late Stan Lee, so I though I’d post my Stan Lee Story… I don’t have one. I never met or talked to the man, unless you count peeing next to him in adjacent urinals at a Minneapolis comic book show. Of course, you just stare straight ahead like the tiles in front of you are the most fascinating design you’ve ever seen when you are doing your business at a urinal. Conversation is not encouraged. I have drawn Stan into MAD a lot, though. I gave him a… READ MORE
