One at a a time....


Every once in awhile, I do a caricature of an individual which is such a refreshing change from doing the big groups of 100 or more in a single composition. In these works, I am able to get more detail, shading, and a more artistic feel to my work. The element of depth is more easily achieved with overlapping shapes and the likeness of the subject is easier to render. Of course, other elements such as motion and fun still make these works a challenge.

I've done that presentation about ten times, so it has evolved. I think it gives teachers of all subjects ideas of how they can allow students to "show what they know" in creative ways -- not just worksheets and tests.
