Wellington Village - Caricature Gig

Here's a few pics I thought I'd share from a gig I drew at 2 days ago. Sadly, I was only able to take a few pictures of my work due to the HIGH demand of people that were there. The Line I had of people wanting to get drawn was so giant. But at least I was able to take a few. 
(Above Pic): This was the sign for the event.
(Above Pic): Here's a Dirt-Biker kid
(Above Pic): And a 'Surfin Kid'
(Above Pic): Here were two 'Basketball Pros' on the same. I thought the kid on the
right was so funny. I love how his eyes dissappeared when he smiled. 

(Above Pic): Yaay, that's me - Sketch Artist in blue. Of course the place paid me.. 
but it was free for the people walking around. :)

The Stampek Family!

Well, I figured it was time to do an updated one of me & my humble little family. lol. I just got some new markers in the mail & figured I'd have a go at using them. I love the way they work! And.. I hope to get faster at using them so I can apply it when I work at live events. Below is me, my cat "Snuggles", my husband "David" and our dog "Angel". ;)

Some Quick Caricatures - All Freehand

Lately all of my work I've been doing.. behind the scenes for the series of books I've been working on.. has mostly been all with the Wacom Tablet. But considering I've been having technical difficulties.. (until I get a new one) I've been loosening up my hand again drawing lots of caricatures. I nearly forgot how wonderful it was to do! It feels GREAT to pick up the marker again & draw on some real live paper! I love it! It's even nicer to draw a different image every 7-10 minutes rather then drawing & editing the exact same book page for much longer then what any person would want to be working on them for. :) So it's been quite a relaxing week of caricaturing. I'm loving it.. and missing it.








This guy really reminded me of "Quentin Tarantino" doesn't he? So crazy! He HAS to be related or something!




Coloring was so fun too. I enjoyed coloring these guys using Photoshop. Yes, my Wacom Tablet is not working.. so it was a bit frustrating to color these at the beginning. But hey! I got through it okay, thank the Lord! ;D

Christmas Caricature Gifts! - Face & Body - Freehand

Colored on the Computer for Brightness, but all drawn freehand with "Markette" & "Chartpak" Markers.

lol. okay, here's a few caricatures I drew! I know there's always room for improvement! But, this was my free-hand Face & Body Caricatures... that I have not done in quite a while!


GREG: He just L-O-V-E-S doing this thing called, Parkour. It's some sort of sporty thing that is mixed between "Acrobatics" and well, getting from point A to point B. It's a very active sort of thing.. and well, kids jump from building to building. My older Brother & I used to do something like this.. but we didn't have a name for it.. we just called it Brave Jumping from building to building. (Something, I wouldn't recommend anyone doing!) Could be very dangerous! So.. don't try this at home kids! ;D Also, not your average drawing.. this one I shrunk the head a bit.. so I could fit the background in better.



TERR(a.k.a. animator-terri) & DAN: okay.. so here's the computer fanatics! A lot like me! You'll find me constantly on the computer working like a maniac! Ter is a mega-3D artist who creates models every second I turn my head!!!! Here I emphasized the fact that these two are always updating their computer equipment faster then you can, "click". They've always got the latest software & enjoy what they do! Her husband the computer scientist is there enjoying building something new & improved as always! haha! He really is a computer scientist! I'm not lyin! That's his real title! Ter taught him everything he knows. lol. (okay I might be fibbing a little bit) But everyone knows that behind every successful man, is a wise woman! And here she is! And might I say the both of them are such ambassador's for Christ, as well as Loving & Generous to everyone they meet! They definitely represent God in all they do.





THE SPENCE KIDS: These two kids I've been seeing grow up via-internet.. for quite sometime... through a sweet lady I know from the Spence Family. Their Mom, is full of many talents in crafts, sewing & cooking. Always a joy to see what she does next! Her kids must love her like crazy cause their smiles generate such radiant angelic smiles. These drawings don't do them justice.. But don't forget.. they are only but free-hand cartoons! lol. ;D

This one loves to dance as you can see! She's totally adorable in real-life!


And this one loves horses. He's such a handsome kid!

Drawing my Hand

okay.. so, today I thought I'd practice hands. Now.. normally I tend to draw them by looking at books. I prefer George Bridgeman & Burne Hogarth normally.Their books rock! Very informative if you wanna do hardcore studying on the human body. And who could forget Tom Richmond's Mad Magazine Caricatures he does as well.

This time.. I used my own hand. I figured since my hands are always available for modeling.. I may as well draw them.. right? It's could to warm up your hand eye coordination before you go jumping into other things. Practice! Practice! Practice! :D
LOL! Yes, my hands are a bit boney.. which makes it tough to draw. The meatier your hands... I think.. the easier it is to draw. I had to fake a bit of meat on my hands so you could see the volume better. Woman's hands tend to be pointy at the fingertips normally anyways.. so I find it to be tougher to get good dimensions from my own hands generally. But I did my best for now.

All Drawn With: Pencil

You can see how I proggression took place as I kept drawing. That's the only way to get better.. is not give up & keep moving forward (even when you mess up). The form of the hand has so many parts to it.. and it really is incredible when you see how your own hand can be manipulated into so many forms. Hands are fun to draw!
Our bodies are so intricately made. It's a wonder how our bodies can work in so many ways. So to turn a blind eye to the truth that God intelligently designed us is to be senseless & bewildered.

"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,"
(Romans 1:20)

Kevin Arnold & Paul Pfeiffer - Wonder Years

Wow.. I wonder where have the years gone? okay.. so I thought I'd try a go at Fred Savage and Josh Saviano. Just to practice my quick sketches. I'll start trying out more celebrity ones for the future. But for now here's 2 80's celebs.

Drawn With: Copic Marker - Brush Pen

If you're ANYTHING like Kevin Arnold's character was in the Wonder Years... you are like the rest of us *Guilty* in breaking God's Commandments.

Jesus said: "But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart."(Matthew 5:28)

Hence, the need for a savior (The only One who can save us from our sins), Jesus Christ.

Justin Peters

Justin was here in Australia this past Sunday.. and I got to meet him! :D I was so excited cause I always miss all the best "Guest Speakers" cause they tend to all stay in the states. I totally forgot to take a picture with him though.. ah-well. He's an awesome man of God. I'm telling you.. man.. I was balling my eyeballs out by then end of the service. It was such a powerful message! Wish I coulda video taped it.

Anyways, here's Todd Friel interviewing Justin Peters on Wretched TV:


Here's a preview of one of his videos - "A Call For Discernment":

For the record, he DOES beleive that God still works miracles.. but God does it when He wants to.. but if He has a plan for a person to have any type of illness - He has allowed it to happen for a Reason... as such with Justin Peters' disease. God works through Justin to Glorify His(God's) Name.

"So the LORD said to him, “Who has made man’s mouth? Or who makes the mute, the deaf, the seeing, or the blind? Have not I, the LORD? Now therefore, go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall say.” (Exodus 4:11-12)
