Any Caricature Artists out there??

nonnatus

Hi,

My daughter turns 18 at the end of April, and I'd really like a decent Caricature picture done of her, with her dogs and a couple of other things in the picture that mean loads to her.

I can supply plenty of pictures of her and the other animals / things for the artist to work from, but I was wondering whether any artistic MSE'ers have the required skills please? I can't draw for toffee - I've attempted it several times, but it's REALLY hard!

There are people who offer the service on the Interweb and I've been in touch with a couple but I'm not sure who to trust and they charge a small fortune! (I'm more than happy to PAY someone for the service, but the Interweb guys seem to charge around £800 for what I'm after :eek:)

Mods - feel free to move if this is in the wrong place or if you think it might attract more attention somewhere else...

All ideas welcome

Thanks in advance!

I have someone I can recommend, he has 'done' all of my family and is a lovely guy.
I will just have to dig out the details and get back to you.

Hi Nonnatus,
I have been looking for Derek's number/ biz card, I think it may have vanished in my KonMari frenzy :-D
Here is the website - http://scottishcartoons.com/ which will give you all the information you need plus general contact details.
The lovely guy I have met is Derek Gray.
If you decide to use his services, please tell him that Linda the face painter recommended him ( we first met at the PAMIS jobs )
Please let me know how you get on.
Linda
