I did this one of the late Sam Neill for my "Sketch o'the Week" for my newsletter today. I usually wait a week to share these on my socials but with him so recently passed I thought I'd share it right away. RIP.
In just over two weeks The Lovely Anna and I will be at San Diego Comic Con, hawking our usual garbage. You can also catch me at the following panels: THURSDAY, July 23rd: The National Cartoonists Society Turns 80! 4:00-5:00 pm Room 32AB SATURDAY, July 25th: Quick Draw! Time TBD Room 6BCF
Mel Brooks is 100 years old today! That's a far cry from 2,000 years old but it still ain't bad. Happy Birthday, Mr. Brooks!
I just finalized the booking of my LAST 2026 workshop, taking place in Orlando on November 14-15. It will have been nearly three years since I had done a workshop in Orlando (Feb 2024) when this one takes place. Grab your spot while you can! bit.ly/4oN5MFi
Here’s another in my “Lord of the Rings” Sketch o'the Week series- Hugo Weaving as Elrond.

I told the story in my newsletter "The Ink Stained Wretch" last week about tabling with Mr. T and the NOW Comics booth in San Diego Comic Con in 1993. Subscribe Here: art4mad.substack.com I do videos each week for paid subscribers and once a month or so post one to YouTube: youtu.be/I-UO3aIpUAg?...
Mony Mony! It’s back to the 80’s with this week's "Sketch o'the Week"... rocker Billy Idol.
We are down to our last handful of copies of CLAPTRAP. There will not be a second printing. If you don't have a copy these are how many new copies are still available on Planet Earth. Once they are gone it's Ebay ($$) or nothing!! www.claptrapbook.com
In honor of the 50th Anniversary of "The Bad News Bears", here's Walter Matthau as Coach Buttermaker! #caricature #waltermatthau #badnewsbears
I'm told this is a place a lot of artist's have gravitated to after abandoning the mess that is X, and I should be posting here more. Ok! Here's the cover art I did for the newest issue of MAD, Which is out tomorrow!
I'm doing a one-day workshop in Nov in FL! If you’ve always thought it would be fun to take one of my workshops but the time, money, and stress of a full weekend drawing put you off, this is your chance! bit.ly/4pfF4Vp

Two of the original "Not Ready for Prime Time Players" ladies... Jane Curtin and Laraine Newman!
I’m doing some of the SNL characters notably missing from that piece I did for New York magazine as SotW subjects. This week it’s John Belushi as Samurai Futaba!
I did this illustration for vulture.com and New York Magazine for a story about SNL's 50th. Before you complain that so-and-so should have been included, I was told who to include and only who to include, so direct your complaints to the folks lsited above. #caricature #snl
Toronto Workshop: CORRECT DATES! My previous promo about my upcoming workshop in the Great White North had the wrong dates on it. The correct dates are May 17-18th! store.tomrichmond.com/products/tor...
Yeah mon! We aren't worrying 'bout a thing with this week's sketch! #bobmarley #caricature
On second thought, how about a series of caricatures of guys who played Tarzan? Here's Johnny Weissmuller! Incidentally, these original sketches are usually sold by the time I post then to social media, but this one is still available: store.tomrichmond.com/products/ske...
Thought I'd start a new series of caricatures of guys named Buster! Here's old school action star Buster Crabbe as Flash Gordon!
I've been neglecting to post here on BlueSky, but will be correcting that going forward. Here's a few "Sketches o'the Week" that I missed posting here. Here's silent film comedy legend Buster Keaton!
