 The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry," - Robert Burns


Mice, men and Caricaturists - Michael Hopkins



Oh, well It's time to move on from this current adventure. Luckily, I do live a life of freedom and I’m capable of making alternate plans. In fact as long as I have something to draw on, life is going to be ok. The lesson I learned is quite ironic, since I learned it in the backyard of The Walt Disney Company, never take an apple from Old Hag Grimhilde.



Nuff said.


My original art is finally gaining some attention at Michael Hopkins Caricatures Online Store. Even though it's a small amount, it’s more than I've seen before and I'm grateful for any attention. I believe that my original caricatures and my original aviation caricatures are on par with anyone's. If you’d like to check out my current collection, please visit my store at the link below. Don't let the prices scare you. I am always open to reasonable offers, so if you see a piece that you like, make me an offer and see what happens.

Here's a few examples of my original art in an attempt to entice you to visit my online store.










FYI...Michael Hopkins Event Caricatures was at The VIVA Banquet Hall in Reno, Nevada on March 14th, to help celebrate Addy's Sweet 16 Birthday Party! Happy birthday, Addy, and thank you for inviting Michael Hopkins Event Caricatures to your celebration!





Finally... I'm going to start a new journey (literally) in April. I think I'm going to start by visiting some places from my childhood and some places on my bucket list. I got the time, so why not?? The question is, am I going to blog or vlog these visits or maybe both? Anyways you’ll be the second one to know (after I figure it out). So this new adventure should start around the second week of April. 

Let's see what happens….
