About me:

My artistic
experience began as a
child. I was a compulsive doodler
...no paper or surface could be left alone!
I love cartoons and humor! As a student I drew
caricatures and cartooned notes for my friends. I
attended Cooper School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio.
Once I started with the cartooning.... I never stopped !!
Since then I have drawn caricatures at corporate events,
schools, theaters, museums, country clubs, trade shows,
various fund raisers, promotional events, festivals & more.
I love creative stuff & work in a variety of mediums. I can
draw with both hands at the same time! I also perform
mime, do computer graphics, murals, calligraphy and
illustration. I enjoy writing and have published some
newspaper articles. I have created block cartoons,
books for kids & poetry that I intend to publish.
I believe being an artist is not just about
what you do....it's a reflection
of what you are!

I am available for sketching caricatures at special events, promotional events, trade shows, schools, fundraisers ,churches, bar and bat mitzvahs, parties, coporate events... I also create original custom art, just contact me and I'll answer any questions.

When I was a toddler Mom says I crayoned the length of a wall and as high up as my little arm would reach. Mom was quite the artist. She would do wonderful pencil sketch portraits and copy the illustrations from books. I figured that's one of the things ya learn as you grow up...like learning to read and telling time.

 

 

Who I'd like to meet:

Jesus, Albert Einstein, Leonardo DiVinci, Auguste Renoir, Beatrix Potter, Dr. Seuss, Thomas Edison, Nicola Tesla, Michaelangelo, Alphonse Mucha, MC Escher, Norman Rockwell, Maxfield Parrish, Dali, John Waterhouse, Walt Disney, Gary Larson, Jan Brett, Matt Groening, Superman, Nadia Comaneci, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley,the Beatles, George Lucas, Harrison Ford, Steven Spielberg,Steve Martin, Jim Carey, Drew Carey, Robin Williams, Whoopi Goldberg, Mike Myers, Carol Burnett, Oprah Winfrey, Jim Henson, Richard Bach, Scott Adams, W. Clement Stone, Wallace Wattles, Jack Canfield, Wayne Dyer, Terry Fator, Paul Potts, ET, Stephen Hawking Fun creative people and some good agents!! Well intending extraterrestrials also welcome.

    Happy Friday 13th!
    Energy is neither good nor bad, it is how we decide to use that energy that defines who we are and the kind of experiences we have. Friday 13th is a powerful day, but not one to be feared. We must always remember that whatever we think about we will attract into our lives. By keeping our thoughts positive and proactive this powerful stream of energy can be used to bring good things into our lives. So don’t face today with fear but look at it as a day as any other filled with possibilities, it is a powerful day none the less so choose to use the energy wisely! Have a wonderful day and weekend too:-)

    Love & Blessings Raine xxx
