Holly wrote me and said..."I found your blog-Organized Doodles and was interested in having you do a custom caricature for me. My husband, myself, our daughter, and son-in-law recently went on a trip to Europe. The kids are stationed at Lakenheath/Mildenhall Air Force base in UK-so after visiting them, we went on a whirlwind tour."
"To make a long story short, we ended up in Paris, France and my daughter desperately wanted an artist to do a sketch of the family while we were there...but there were no street artists to be found in Paris (can you even believe it-the city of art & artists and none to be found!) She was sorely disappointed.""But when I found your blog and discovered that you did caricatures, I started to get excited. Maybe YOU could be our Parisian artist."
"The kids are visiting us in June. Do you suppose you could crank something out by then? Um. Maybe the Eiffel tower largely in the background with the Arc de Triomphe off to the side?"
I said..."Oui."
Apparently Starbucks has invaded Europe and was a reoccurring theme on their trip. Holly wanted to make sure I added it to the illustration. I threw in the FRENCE fries for fun.
Thanks Holly for choosing me to be your little "Parisian Artist". God Speed.
And in the words of Pepé Le Pew...
"Au revoir, pidgeon. Sweeting is such part sorrow."
