Here is a caricature I did for my aunt and uncle on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary. They have 19 grandchildren. My aunt celebrated wearing her wedding dress and my uncle made himself a cardboard top hat.
Photographer, painter and coffee drinker, Steve Moors took a bunch of shots of me yesterday for his photography project tetatively called "OY VEY", a collection of pictures and statements from creative people on Manhattan's Upper West Side, who have a Jewish sensibility, born or aquired. He has an instinctive way of working that produces unexpected and beautiful results, even with me as a subject. I will post the picture when I get it.
