 Ali T: I draw caricatures for the Great State of PA, which more often than not includes Amish Country and its surrounding areas. I have drawn one Amish person, and she loved it!
I left college expecting to be an art teacher for the rest of my life, but deep down I knew that wasn't for me. After two years of misery in that field, I got a summer job at Hershey Park drawing caricatures because it sounded fun. I was hooked after my first summer, and I've been doing them ever since.
The most memorable event I've worked at was a private party in York. The birthday boy's name was Scott and he saved up his pennies all year to throw a huge bash for his family and friends. He stopped by about every 15 minutes or so to make sure we were eating one of everything on the menu (all delicious) and to just watch and joke with us. Near the end, he unveiled a seafood bar that blew my socks off. Best host, best people, best food.
One thing I'd like everyone to know about me is that I might be made out of cupcakes; I love them so darn much. |
