I saw Wicked, I know what really happenedI recently got to do a caricature for a couple people as a present. They wanted a Wizard of Oz theme, as well as a tie to Cleveland. The layout just seemed natural to me, and I turned some Cleveland landmarks into the Emerald City.

This was a lot of fun, and I used a different coloring technique than I have in recent years. Rather than doing that cut color shadow layer (that's the style I use on Love and Capes) I actually rendered the artwork in color with a few hard cast shadows.

I'm really pleased with how this turned out and so was the client, which is always important.
