Festivals abound in the Tri-State


Hey folks,
Been real busy putting together this caricature for our Entertainment section, that I haven’t had much time to get to this week’s gridiron challenge of New Hampshire. At some point I’ll explain a bit of my caricature process — which can be generally more time consuming cause getting a good exaggerated likeness is the key.

I’ll get back with you tomorrow over the New Hampshire challenge but generally it will have something to do with the Herd taking on a much easier opponent, but needing not to take them too lightly as they have struggled in the past in games they should win easily.

In the meantime, enjoy the festivals!
