HARRINGTON, Del.- Nick Tabron, a man with a very special talent, experienced his first Delaware State Fair.

The North Carolina native packed his drawing tools and hit the road with his wife, Rhonda, to draw people for ten days straight at the fair. It’s a job that Tabron said really doesn’t feel like work, because he’s doing what he loves.

“At events like this, I get to meet people,” Tabron said. “It’s a generational thing. I draw you, I draw your kids as they grow up, I have repeat customers that come to see me year after year.”

Tabron said with three decades of experience under his belt, he’s mastered the art of scanning a face, learning it, and letting  the pen fly, higlighting an individual’s strongest features.

“Every person is different, but in a sense, every person is the same. There are certain geometric principles about the human face and human anatomy that you learn,” Tabron said.

Cartooning for 30 years, Tabron said it’s the people that keep him in the business.

Art unites people, because it doesn’t matter where you’re from,” Tabron said. “I’ve drawn people from Egypt, I’ve drawn people from Palestine, I’ve drawn people from Europe, I’ve drawn people from all over the Earth, and every one of them, irregardless of their language, nationality or their ethnic background, all enjoy what we do.”
