Firstly, I thought it was Andy Murray’s year to win Wimbledon
especially when Roger Federer got knocked out. But I didn’t
reckon on Nadal’s breathtaking display of huge forehands and
turning defence into attack.
Nadal said: “I expect to play my best on every point and fight
for every point like it is the last one. I don’t think if the match
is going to be difficult. I just go on court and fight point by point.”

Here’s a fun tennis caricature I did recently. You can beat anyone
at any game in my caricatures!

Don’t leave it too late to order your caricature gifts for your friends and family.

Here’s a reply I recently got for producing this caricature…(It was drawn at A3 size.)

If you are looking for a caricature, then look no further. This man is a genius, his work truly beautiful. He captured my parents perfectly and we couldn’t ask for anything more. He was completely open to my vision of how the picture should look, made changes without complaint and in reality the finished article exceeds all your expectations. We are looking forward to commissioning the next one! Thank you Richard.

Some time ago a client asked me to draw up a cartoon strip to so that he could frame it and present to Theo Paphitis when making a pitch to him.

Here’s the four framed cartoon strip with caricatures of Theo….

Theo is a great football fan and spent eight years as Chairman of Millwall FC, taking it out of administration, into the Championship and as far as the UEFA cup, via an FA Cup Final. So the cartoon tied in very well with his thoughts on football and business.

To commemorate a special event, be it personal or group, why not try commissioning caricatures from photos? Images like these can be personalized to suit the type of celebration. Caricatures from photos are great business giveaways, especially if they depict top executives in a light hearted and funny pose. Caricatures from photos also make great motivational items, especially when the subject is a recipient of an award or honor. The members of the whole sales team can also be depicted in caricatures from photos and displayed for all to see and derive inspiration from. During company events like picnics and conventions, caricatures from photos are quite suitable as souvenirs.

Caricatures from photos can also be made into great promotional materials, with the sales person depicted with the product or service offered. As advertising goes, caricatures from photos cost less yet hold the promise of sales, as people respond positively to brightly colored images with funny features. No need to hire real life celebrities, well designed caricatures from photos will do just fine. Because of the affordability and convenience, this type of promotional materials is suitable for both small-scale and large businesses.

In need of personalized gifts that does not cost much? Try giving cards with caricatures from photos. Besides being unique, these gift items will be warmly received because you obviously given it much thought and effort in having it commissioned.  And of course, nobody could resist anything clearly depicting fun and lightheartedness.

Caricatures from photos can also be included in other kinds of gift items, such as calendars, notebooks, journals, even in mugs and cups.

Caricatures from photos can also be used in printed materials such as books and magazines. In the absence of photos and images of the real person, caricatures will do nicely to represent a certain person featured in articles or stories.

When clients commission me to make caricatures from photos, the one thing I emphasized for them to send me appropriate photographs.

Making caricatures from photos is easy enough, especially for someone like me who has been in this business for a long time. But each project that I accept is decidedly unique on its own and presents its distinctive challenge.

When creating caricatures from photos, I make sure that the client furnishes me with all the necessary details in order for me to have a comprehensive image. This includes describing the personality of the subject, his or her interests and hobbies, and the like.

I make sure that the client submits a clear picture of the person I have to draw. This means that all his or her facial features must be clearly discerned, preferably with a smile in their faces. As much as possible, only the most recent pictures must be used to create caricatures from photos.

Caricatures from photos may contain an exaggeration or two in terms of physical features, depending on the specifications of the client. However, I always strive to depict each subject in a flattering and positive manner. Customer satisfaction is always a priority, with the completed works always fulfilling the client’s demands.
