Stang and Light and Slim, some nice work, no matter who's wearing who's hat!
Lights, we got another 4" of snow night before last, haven't seen this much at once for at least 5 years, and it hasn't been above freezing for a week! Ahhh, just like the old days!

Thkx Horate been tryin to detach myself from Photoshop. Another thing this wasnt exacly my first Oil pastel caricature i have done 2 live caricatures before this one, here are the pics. First one was done some months ago and the last is from a last weekend Christmas party, both took me 20 minutes live as well as the Zappa one.   |

Yes Horate it was over Canvas. Actually in the first one the guy requested me to paint him in the canvas, i wasnt prepared for that and i just have bought a set of oil pastels in that same day coincidentaly and painted that. I was hired for that job to work live not to receive by piece. The second one the same but it wasnt requested, it was a gift from me, since its Christmas. I might repeat it this week again with another victim.

Dave - Yeah I remember when I used to walk in the snow to school for 5 miles , start the school stove with wood I chopped from the near by forest while keeping my musket handy in case of the indians. Wait!!! That was my greatgrand father.
Nelson - Like your work as always. Do you enjoy oil pastels? I can't get used to them.
