BASEBALL ARTIST - MIKE BRIGGS                    

Mike Briggs is a self-taught artist from Central Massachusetts. He specializes in caricature and humorous illustrations. Once Briggs realized he could not hit a fastball, he needed to find another career path fast. While working at an infirmary, he answered an ad posted by Mad Magazine looking for a caricaturist at a nearby theme park. He landed the job, and the rest is history. Briggs' work has appeared in publications such as Worcester Magazine and Pulse Magazine, online at boston.com's Dirt Dogs blog, thrillist.com, and redsocksdiaries.com, and on television via NESN and NECN.
