when i was younger, my family and i used to have portrait parties. we would congregate in the living room every few months and turn our attention from person to person, drawing everyone in the room. it was such a pleasure and so normal in my life that trading portraits became a regular event when i left for college, when i moved to new towns, when i met new friends or favorite artists. tommy kane suggested that it would make a good website. so, that's what this is... AND YOU'RE INVITED!
rima was the class clown of our portrait party. my 2 minute sketch of her (above) illustrates the fact that she couldn't stop joking for even a few minutes. "oh!" she kept joking when she realized that talking made her lips move, "draw me as a ventriloquist!"
