Hi all, I am still banging out lots of cute drawings of small children( but not really caricatures) which I do get a lot of praise and thanks from all concerned. I have now got a much better appreciation of how difficult it is to do what we do, the various styles we all have and how customers can be so demanding of what they want, but most of all I think I am Cheap!. The other day I got to draw a family of 5, and started off very tame, but by the end had gone quite extreme as they warmed to me. They soon changed their opinions by the end and I don't think they appreciated the last 2, but still payed, as I am cheap. I do love reading other artists blogs about difficult customers or funny stories of things that happen, I myself the other day at Warwick Castle had a Duck attack my customer around the ankles as they sat for me, she was laughing a lot about it, which made it easy to draw her smiling! ( Who on earth put the bread around the chair?)
I have been useless this week taking pictures and haven't managed any, even though I got to draw some really interesting faces, none more so than a gentleman called Arther who was enjoying his 80th birthday and was a great sport.
I have been trying to add a couple of pictures but not having much luck at present so I will try later in the week, Best wishes to all.
