Unfortunately, for personal and medical reasons, I have decided to step back from accepting new commissions for the time being. You can certainly still send me inquiries if you like, but I’m not planning to accept any outside work for now. I will update when/if this changes.
I’m still happy to sell rights to existing work. Just contact me for the details.
Last one. We’re back to that recurring star-shaped pinata.
Here’s some more Mexican Hat Dancers. Kids this time.
A caricature portrait of Gloria Estefan, the Cuban-American singer and actress. She’s the last of the 4 caricatures in this project.

A caricature portrait of César Chávez, the famous labor leader who established the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA). The NFWA flag is behind him.
