I was booked by Fast signs to entertain with some on the spot caricaturist action at the Fast Signs awards dinner last Friday and found myself working alongside Jon Hicks the speed painter and pavement artist.
Jon put on an impressive show creating two outsized celebrity portraits in amazing bold strokes and splashes of paint applied with utmost confidence and perfect precision. Each piece (measuring some 5 feet in height) Took no more than 5 minutes and the second was created upside-down!
I did my usual thing and drew caricatures of around 35 guests over a couple of hours pausing for the award giving and, of course, to watch Jon.
