Yesterday Andy and I celebrated our 17th anniversary! The night before, we were at a cousin's Bar Mitzvah, where a caricaturist did the rendering at left; I think he nailed Andy pretty well (despite the Leno-esque jaw) but didn't get even a hint of me. The fact that he made my dress pink (it was in fact black) and filled it rather generously on top suggests to me that he was not really paying attention to me as he was drawing! In truth, he seemed to do a better job on all the men than on the women; we found the same thing to be true when a different artist was doing caricatures at a party a few years ago. I wonder why.
I understand your concern about the cariacature, but as my grandmother used to say about compliments, "Sagen sie nur "danke"" or, "Just say thank you". She was very formal, even with her grandchildren. Of course, if the cariacature was hers, she might not have been so forgiving.
Be thankful the artist was not more generous wth Andy! No telling what such things could have portended!
Anyway, Happy Anniversary! It's another 6 months before my wife and mine...
