My sister Karen is employed at a gym/boot camp which is owned and operated by a guy we affectionately call Booty Brett, to distinguish him from Karen's son; also named Brett.  She made what she felt like was a major and costly mistake concerning a client (who took absolutely no responsibility for his part in the error), and Karen adopted a heavy dose of guilt.  To help alleviate said guilt trip and hopefully salve the ire of Brett, she asked me to paint a caricature for him.  The guy absolutely never smiles, so it was odd to receive pictures from his girlfriend in which he was smiling in every one.  He loves to fish and go elk hunting, amongst other things, so I decided to incorporate a little of both in his picture.  Hopefully he will find some humor in his caricature and it elicits at least one more smile in his lifetime!! :)  Karen just hopes it will put her somewhat back in his good graces.  This is done in watercolor.
