I had a lovely evening at ISCAcon34 signing Drawing Influence with my foreword author, John Musker (The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Moana)! There are still a few copies left that you can purchase, signed by both myself and John! Head over to drawinginfluence.com
Incredibly honored to win first place in “Best Studio Piece” this year for my drawing of Ray Charles. Standing in excellent company with Darren Kennedy and Valta Klints who placed 3rd and 2nd, respectively.
I had a blast doing an interview all about caricature with Alex Spalding for “Behind the Big Head”!
Listen to me talk about the history of International Society of Caricature Artists*, share some of my studio work, talk caricature theory and give some tips for those just beginning in their caricature journey.
*Note a small correction/clarification to my ISCA history lesson: The National Caricaturist Network began in 1989 and the first conference was in 1991. In 2009, ISCA officially changed its name from the National Caricaturist Network to the International Society of Caricature Artists.
This past September 2025, I was honored to be one of seven Masterclass Instructors at the annual FACES Festival hosted by the Palazzo del Fumetto in Pordenone, Italy. The other instructors were Jason Seiler, Benny Nicolini, Frank Federighi, Ralf Ricker, Jorge Torrealba and George G. Williams.
I was honored to represent International Society of Caricature Artists – ISCA and the World Humor Awards on the most recent episode of the Caglecast alongside Marco De Angelis!
