A Grin for the Win!

doodle tour 2011 business cards with tour dates on back
My new Doodle Tour business cards came just in time for the Fest!


Over the weekend "Doodle Tour 2011" captured the hearts and grins of bystanders and courageous contestants alike at Erie Summer Festival of the Arts. While its true that the weather didn't cooperate, the last day was filled with sunshine and a festive crowd of art-goers! Below are some fantastic Doodle fans showing off their more or less cartoonish resemblance (Check out more pics on my flickr page). I appreciate everyone who stopped by to be doodled or those just saying "hey!" It was great seeing all of you.

(Above) While drawing her, I discovered that this girl also is an artist, so I asked her "what do you like to draw?", "CRAZY THINGS" she replied. Amazing...In all my time of drawing caricatures I've never heard this kind of reply. *High fives* fellow artist!

(Above) I am really, really glad this group sat down to be drawn. They pretty much wore their personality and sense of humor on their sleeves!

(Above) Instead of spending his money on something to eat or a plastic "Sponge Bob toy", this young man spent it on a necklace made in Nigeria. I think this says a lot about him. I was impressed to say the least.
