LIVE WORK

Here's a selection of some live caricatures I did at a corporate even in the beautiful Guinness Storehouse, Dublin last Saturday night on behalf of Niall O'Loughlin's Caricature Company . Really enjoyed this one......well, i enjoy them all. Just enjoyed this one that bit more! Everyone was walking around drinking lovely pints of Guinness which was extremely distracting........

REM PHOTOS

I know this is completely unrelated to the world of caricatures but how could I resist posting pictures like these?
I was lucky enough to have got not only a ticket to see the final night of R.E.M.'s 5 night residency at Dublin's Olympia but also a VIP pass to the aftershow party where I rubbed shoulders with the band and spoke utter nonsense in my start-struck state. Been fans of these guys for about 17 years now and it was an absolute privelage to meet them. I also managed to take a couple of nice shots during the gig too. What a night!

THE STAG OF ALL STAGS

This is one I knocked out last week for my friend Andy Clare who's tying the knot in a few weeks. Kilkenny was the destination for the Stag weekend and from what I hear, I rather enjoyed myself.
As you can see, he's somewhat of an Elvis fan and is determined, one day, to own his very own Elvis jumpsuit. Mainly because there are no other Elvis-related items of memorabilia left for him to buy.

WEDDING INVITATION ILLUSTRATION

Here's a drawing I completed last week for a couple's wedding invitations. They seemed pretty happy with the outcome.....

LIVE WORK

Here's a selection of live caricatures I did at an event a couple of weeks ago.

ELECTION TIME!

Well, it's election time again. For the last three weeks we've been bombarded by false promises, insincere handshakes and mountains of election literature that has left a void in rainforest somewhere in South America.
Anyway, enought about that, here's a couple of sketches of some familiar faces (or not, as the case may be). Our Commander in Chief, Bertie Ahern and the minister for Health, Mary Harney.

Live Painting

I did this at a bar in downtown San Diego that schedules nights for artists to come and paint for people to watch, enjoy and possibly buy the work. I dont actually know how to paint very well so I just used the ol' marker and color sticks on a 14''x14" peice of wood for this one. Sold!!
