i almost never caricature athletes, simply because sports hold little to no interest for me. but my sister-in-law is planning a trip to zambia to see what she can do to help out the poverty-stricken families there, and in preparation for it, she's holding a charity event, all of the proceeds from which will go to "community without borders", the charity organization she's been working in co-operation with. one of things she wanted to do was sell some prints of some of my caricatures. she lives in boston, so she asked whether i could do up some caricatures of athletes from boston teams, to appeal to her target audience. so i'm donating these to her cause. i didn't have time to spend as much time on them as i do on most of my full-fledged finished works, but i wanted them to look a lot better than my usual quick sketches too, so the result was something somewhere in between. these are done now, and being shipped to her in boston even as i type this, but if anyone who knows anything more about these guys than i do wants to go ahead and offer critiques anyway, i'll listen. the red sox' david otiz: the celtics' kevin garnett: and the new england patriots' tom brady (evidently quite famous. i've never heard of him) :
