A Pogo Stick...really?

Yup, they're still around, these pogo sticks that I thought had gone the way of the dinosaur. Apparently they are still "hip" today, and there are high-end ones that you can order in for extreme, um, riders? Is that what they'd be called? Kind of like extreme BMXers or extreme roller bladers ... not sure. It would certainly be interesting to see what one can accomplish whilst "riding" one of these.


Anyway, this piece was for a clients son. She ordered the pogo for his birthday (today) but because it's coming over the border it has not, of course, made it here yet. So, she wanted to surprise him with something - a caricature of him on the pogo was the best choice, and I appreciate her choosing me to create it.
