Judging from the Prudential Realty group I drew caricatures for at Oyster Point, the real estate market is back. Lots of smiles here, mortgage rates are dropping, God bless us every one!

The French Laundry throws an annual party for all its foodie friends and they invited me to draw caricatures. Here are two shy lovelies. I also drew their parents too, and they were pretty good looking themselves,

Saltbranding dreams up brand identities for the products we buy—”Vista” for Microsoft for example. They took over a room at the E&O Trading Company for the evening, where I drew caricatures.

Catalyst Biosciences is probably one of a handful of biotech companies that can get funding in this economic climate, and they threw a party. This caricature was my fave of the evening. Sigh…oh, to be young  and cute and brilliant and in on the ground floor!



Election Party / San Francisco

Corporate Event Caricature / San Francisco

Bank Of America hosted a party for employees and their families at AT&T Park. I was out in left field but they found me and kept me busy drawing caricatures all night. The best part was before the party started, when I got to test how it feels to run into the wall while trying [...]



Trade Show Mixer Caricature / San Francisco

This large event at the Hilton was marvel comics themed so everyone got a superhero body, like the “Hulk” pictured here. With a couple thousand in attendance the lines were too long for drawing much detail. These averaged about 2.5 minutes each.
