Caricaturist For Hire

 If I haven't posted about it, or you're not aware, I'm not just a portrait artist and overall realist artist, but I also draw CARICATURES!

I draw caricatures for all kinds of events, including, but not limited to:

Weddings

Birthdays

Anniversaries

Graduation parties/open houses

Grand Openings

Retirements

Company events

Fundraisers

... and more!! Contact me if interested. I only travel within Michigan, and not during the winter months! 

I'm An Outschool Teacher!!

 

I'm offering a UNIQUE online drawing class for kids!

I will be teaching at OUTSCHOOL, an online platform to offer classes to k-12 kids! I'm starting off teaching a class on HOW TO DRAW POPEYE AND OTHER CLASSIC CARTOONS!!

Right now it's only one class for ages 7-10 year olds, but I'll add more classes and sessions over time.

I still work my regular teaching job; OutSchool is a second job, basically. Please share to anyone you know in the WORLD who might have kids interested!

Want art made for you for the holidays? Or just 'cuz?

 Anyone interested in some original artwork? Portrait? Cartoon character paintings? Superhero/supervillain mashups? 

EXAMPLE: Ever want to see Batman vs. Hellboy, or Hulk meets Aquaman? Have a favorite A Cartoon character but can't find wall art of them? Want a painting of your pet? 

Contact me asap for Christmas gift art! Jasonnuttall@yahoo.com

 Here are samples of my work. 

Dress Up and Play!

As some of you may already know, I've organized an event in downtown West Branch, CosPlay (short for "costume play"). Basically, you dress up as your favorite cartoon, video game, super hero, movie, sci-fi, fantasy character. Pose for photos, interact with other fans of the genre. It's for ALL ages. If you've always wanted to dress as Frodo from Lord of the Rings, or Princess Leia from Star Wars, now's your chance! I'm hoping to organize a costume contest and I might do free cartoon/comic book sketches for a half hour, or maybe $1 a drawing. There will be some vendors selling toys and comics. It'll be fun. It's also the first weekend of "The Amazing Spider-Man" movie in theaters. So you can grab a flick while in town!
This takes place Saturday, July 7th from 4-7pm. If you want to participate in the costume contest, there'll be a table to sign up.
This is all FREE, by the way. Except vendors' products, of course. Here's an example of CosPlay:


Maybe there can be some re-enacted battles, like Star Wars vs. Star Trek, X-Men vs. Avengers. Who knows? And I'm hoping to make this an annual event.

I are a teacher, too!!

I don't think I've ever mentioned that I have had the great fortune of teaching drawing, and occassionally painting or photo during summer camps and various programs over the years. When I meet the parents, they often ask if I do private lessons because something I taught or how I teach affected their children enough to want to continue with me.
SO, as always, I am available for private lessons. It can be for basic art, drawing, painting, block printing, comic book art, cartoons (not animation), portraiture, landscape, etc.
The advantage to private lessons opposed to a school course is that I can focus on the interests of that one individual, or group of artists. There is a curriculum that must be followed and various bases to touch upon in a school course. I'm available to zoom in to something that either might not be in your school's class structure or hardly worked with.
