This year's annual caricature convention was a very special one. The International Society of Caricature Artists celebrated it's 20 anniversary at the Tradewinds Resort on St. Pete Beach, Florida. Over 125 artists attended and competed for the top awards in the caricature business. This was my first convention in 6 years in which I was simply an attendee after serving on the board since 2005. It was nice to have time to draw for a change as well as get drawn by many other talented artists. My theme for my gallery this year was "If I were Batman...". The samples shown here are some funny versions of a few artist friends of mine who have also worked for Goofy Faces in the past.
It's officially time to get excited for this year's annual ISCA caricature convention in St. Pete Beach, November 13th to the 18th! This marks the 20th anniversary of the one and only official caricature convention in the world.
It's Autumn once again and that means it's time for the annual Art & Apples Festival in Rochester, Michigan. This marked the 8th year in a row that Goofy Faces was there to draw attendees and promote our services. For the 2nd straight year, guest artist Glenn Ferguson was there to help draw faces for 3 days. Kids and families enjoyed their caricatures. Even Hardcore Pawn star, Les Gold stopped by to see us at work.
Goofy Faces was recently hired to draw full color caricatures at the Stars & Stripes Gymnastic Banquet held at the Fountains Golf & Banquet Center in Clarkston, MI. In order to get all 36 gymnasts finished in under 4 hours, a template was created for the first time that included color. Each body was preprinted with the color already there so only the faces needed to be drawn live and colored. It was a great success and now is another option for customers everywhere!
Small parties offer a great opportunity to have your artist draw everyone in color. This party, which took place at the Troy Historical Museum, needed 12 kids and adults drawn and colored in two hours which is exactly how long it took to finish them all.

Well after collecting so many awesome caricatures from other great caricature artists, it was time to do another one on my own. It's been 6 years since I drew the last one so I was overdue. I draw this one in Photoshop after installing more RAM in my computer today and it sure made it much easier to work on.
Recently a new customer from Victoria, Australia placed an order online for our San Francisco Special. The long distance wasn't an issue since the final caricature was emailed to her in plenty of time for her friend's birthday celebration.
Once again, Goofy Faces was drawing caricatures at the Art & Apples Festival in Rochester, MI. This year, guest-caricature artist, Glenn Ferguson was in town from Orlando, FL to help Robert draw and entertain guests of the festival. Glenn draws caricatures at Universal Studios, Orlando full-time so people got a chance to see some awesome work right here in Michigan. The 3-day affair was a lot of fun, minus the rain on Saturday.
