PORTRAITS

i've never been very good at doing portraits, or drawing from photos... but that's what people always want!  so, i draw pictures i get off internet chat boards, websites and just about anywhere else i can find an interesting photo... if you would like me to do one of you put a link on my message board, and i'll get around to it... disclaimer: i am a cartoonist first (not a portrait artist or a caricature artist... so i lay NO claim that it will be a good likeness... it should still be cool though!  If i use your photo or likeness without your consent, don't bother suing me since i am broke, just email me and i'll take it off the page.

"v'nessah loves lyric" pencil sketch of my very good friend and her dog.  isn't she divine? february 2004.
