I thought for sure I could get it done for Saturday but I got caught up with family stuff and a face painting event at Aldergrove for "Community League day".
At Aldergrove for "Community League day" there was Face Painting, a Jumpy Thing, Games, Hot Dogs/snacks and a Big Bin event... a lot of fun and sold a few additional Community League memberships too.
Caricatures at UHaul Health Fair
Caricatures at UHaul Employee Health Fair.
What a joy it was to draw at the Edmonton UHaul Employee Health Fair.
Some days I have to pinch myself that I get to do caricatures and chat with people for a living.
Here are a few examples of the fun I had ....

A mural done for the Indoor Play Area at City of Edmonton's Terwilleger Recreation Centre
A mural done for the Indoor Play Area at City of Edmonton's Terwilleger Recreation Centre.
( 2051 Leger Road, Edmonton, AB T6R 0R9 (780) 442-5311)
The Indoor Play Area has a stage that had blank walls. Our hope is by adding these characters that are performing and play acting, that it will give the kids the idea to do the same!
You can only see part of the mural from the hallway windows which is a bit of a shame. My personal favourites are the little boy on the moon and "Canadian Girl"!
Of course the characters and mural layout was designed by me as well as the painting of it.
Caricatures at The Hanger at Fort Edmonton
It was nice to be asked back again this year to the company party at The Hanger in Fort Edmonton today. It was also so nice to see some familiar, friendly faces was a bonus! I'm not sure who had more fun, these folks or me?!
Window Painting - Western GMC's 2011 Model Year Wrap Up
Flourescent yellow and orange window paint makes Western GMC's windows pretty spectacular!
Everything shown here on the windows has been painted by me in the past while.
An enjoyable place to go paint at.
wedding caricature
A beautiful evening to sit out on the patio and do caricatures at a wedding reception. Not everyone wants to dance or dance every song so caricatures are a popular addition to the wedding reception.

| These girls were such a blast and talk about cute! |
Caricatures at a fundraising event for The Stollery Children’s Hospital at Jox Sports Bar & Grill. These girls were such a blast and talk about cute! When they walked up and said they wanted a caricature, I could hardly contain myself because I could see instantly that they had such pizzaz that it was going to be fun drawing them.
then,
Another good time at a company party! ....

Fun at Leduc #1’s Annual Rib Cook Off
The rain didn’t stop the fun at Leduc #1’s Annual Rib Cook Off. My family stopped in to check it out and my son was in heaven since his favourite meal involves ribs! Oh, and he said “the chocolate waffles were D-E-E-LISH!”
You can enjoy seeing where Alberta’s first oil derrick is located and take a historical tour of Alberta’s most important industry at the Leduc #1 Energy Discovery Centre.

Started the day by doing maple leaf chalk art leading up to the Muttart doors then enjoyed meeting and drawing nice families inside. Just another day of being proud to be Canadian. What a great land we live in, OH YA CANADA!
