Corporate Event / Mountainview

By dougshannon • May 24th, 2008 • Category: Company Parties & Picnics, Corporate Events, Live Digital, Uncategorized, teen

Google had a contest for kids and teens to do their logo art, you know, the one that changes every day. I drew the kids but also a bunch of Googlers. A lot of fun things to do there including face painting by my pal Jodi Carr, who you can see in the background. My [...]



Mixer / San Carlos

About 300 women entrepreneurs in one room—imagine the energy! Here’s one of the caricatures I made.

400 accountants from KPMG celebrating their biggest holiday of the year—post April 15. Three hours of nonstop caricature. Here’s the first of the evening.



Corporate Event / San Francisco

By dougshannon • Apr 9th, 2008 • Category: BLOGPOST, Company Event, Corporate Events, TRADESHOW

150 or so Microsofties (is that the correct term?) invaded the Cartoon Art Museum and I drew digital caricatures on my tablet. We had it set up to deliver to the printer and cell phone simultaneously but turned out I couldn’t get reception. The softcopies are still available for download on the web however.

Corporate Party / San Francisco

150 or so bankers from the Great Lake region cruising the bay. There were three of us caricaturists aboard and more than a few couples walked out with second or even third opinions. This was the last couple on the boat—hope they didn’t miss the bus!



World Conference / San Francisco

By dougshannon • Apr 2nd, 2008 • Category: Corporate Events, Trade Shows, Uncategorized

Three evenings drawing caricatures of technical writers and editors from all over the world. The pair you see in the slide show are editors of rival German magazines. Sorry about the picture quality, the lighting confused my camera!



Corporate Event / San Francisco

By dougshannon • Mar 27th, 2008 • Category: Corporate Events

This corporate event was at the Four Seasons, with about 85 guests from Taiwan, Mexico, and elsewhere. I shared the room with fellow caricaturists Marc Schmid and Marc Richards. Very little English was spoken so we communicated with smiles. It was a little like being in love.



Trade Show / Northern California

By dougshannon • Feb 15th, 2008 • Category: Corporate Events, Live Digital, Trade Shows, Uncategorized

The World Agriculture Expo in Tulare is a monster show, Disneyland for Aggies. Alltech is a player there and they like to give personal swag for their customers. I made up templates in advance for these digital caricatures, which were printed out and ironed on to T-shirts right at the show. It was [...]
