International Bayfest 2010

Here are some examples of folk I drew in a tent next to the Fox River in Green Bay, WI.
The last example is an example of the job hazards of caricaturing outdoors when you are allergic to everything outdoors. Especially biting insects. Still, you know what I always tell 'em, 
"It beats WORKIN' for a livin'! (ha-cha-cha!)"

My studio is up and running again (just in time to load it into the Windstar and take it all on the road again!)! Here is the first online-ordered caricature-in-process of the season. More like a Portrai-cature, really.

subversive lyrics make young people do crazy things

in 1976, I purchased a Stones "It's Only Rock and Roll" songbook with lyrics and chords for guitar. The funny thing is they played it very safe with their publishing. the lyrics were like, "Too bad. . .she's got you BY THE BOARDS" Completely wrong, yet officially published and distributed. Another example, "Rocks Off": "Plug in, flush out, and find the LUCKY feed". . .HA! he is NOT saying "LUCKY" feed, on the record, in fact you can hear someone in the background go "Whoooo-YEA!!" when he says "find the FUCKIN' feed". . .I'm pretty sure they are talking about the days before wireless guitars in that particular phrase. When I sang "Star, Star" at my High School Sock Hop in '77, my "BANDMATES" convinced me to self censor it to "Star Lucky". Of course I promised I would. . .
