In May/June 2009 I completed the Schoolism.com course "The Art of Caricature with Jason Seiler" and achieved a final grade A+.
Opposite are some examples of caricature illustration work done for that course, illustration jobs I have done and portfolio pieces. Click on the thumbnails to see the full paintings.
My gift caricatures are individual and unique presents for anyone and for any occasion - birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, etc. A gift caricature makes the perfect wedding invitation or gift to commemorate the event. All I need is some high quality photos and I take it from there...
