Oh - I wish all my clients gave me enough time to do really good Artwork. So often, they're interested in 'draw as many faces as you can in as little time as possible so I won't have to pay for another hour'. Oh.
I usually refuse to copy other Artist's ideas, but in this case, I was intrigued - because the client was looking for a 'Sixties'-type picture. And that is so my natural style. The way I naturally like to draw. Pop Art.....Peter Max....Psychodelic......Me! Alison Gelbman.
He asked for his whole Party to be drawn on one big paper - and he wanted the picture to "look like the cover from the Sargent Pepper Album (Beatles). Ummm, okay. Limiting (see my other wild Group Caricatures), but still interesting to me.
I arrived ready for Fun. Exaggerations. Style. But my client asked that I draw real fast - that he's hoping to get 33 people plus one dog drawn with the whole Sgt Pepper Composition (lettering, some bodies, placements). And he also wanted me to draw "Couples" next to each other. That didn't leave any time to let his guests 'do the party-saunter'. I needed each one immediately and with his partner.
And since I tell people to Estimate ten faces per hour, I was forced to just get something representing each face onto the paper - No time for unique exaggerations. No time for banter. No time for the Outrageous Composition I wanted to do. This is Work.
The picture came out good. The people had a good time. The Party was successful.
But oh, my client had no idea of what I Could have done.

Did you know that I do Face-Painting as well as Caricatures?
Well, I do....
Last night I did Face-Painting for the cutest Pre-School Graduation.
I arrived early and had some time to play around with some ideas before the event.
I came up with a New Idea. Hark! A New Idea!
As of now, I've only done Either Caricatures Or Face-Painting at any one time.
Switching Setups back and forth feels crazy.
But it could be Fun to try it this new way - the new idea I just came up with.
(Stay tuned:-)
I can just Draw the 'face-painting' Onto the caricature. Like this:
Small extra fee because of the
extra skills and doubled concentration that this requires.

body/hobby takes longer to do than face-only.
and it also cuts into the play an Artist can do on the face.
I do it when I'm asked, but I really think that Face-only is better for Parties.
If you ask my opinion about it, I'd recommend leaving the Life-Stories to the Studio Caricatures.
Still, we all had a blast at this Party.
