A little bird told me…..

It’s been so busy caricaturing at corporate events and weddings over the Christmas period I thought it was time for a chill out. So I picked up the pencils and was thinking what to draw. Normally I would sketch people, but as I cast my eyes outside there was a blue tit hopping about outside. I’ve attached the picture for you to see.

Working at Ferrari

I was recently asked to work at an event in Nottingham for Star Trust www.star-trust.org.uk who were holding a splendid event to thank those involved with the trust. Event location was GrayPaul Ferrari!

So what better way to spend an evening than drawing caricatures sat next to my dream car – and it was the right colour!

Christmas Silly Season For Berkshire Caricaturist

admin — Tue, 13 Dec 2016 09:18:42 +0000

It always catches me by surprise, one minute it’s an age away and then i’m listening to Slade at corporate Christmas parties for what seems months! I love caricaturing at this time of year, everyone is ready for a few days off after slogging away for the year, the Christmas party offers a chance to let their hair down and look forward to time off.

I’ve not taken any photos to share from any parties this year, it’s just been too busy so here is a few from the past – My new year’s resolution is to take more photos of the places I work!

Caricatures in Leeds Castle

admin — Tue, 06 Sep 2016 06:26:03 +0000

What’s not to like about Leeds Castle for a wedding venue, when the general public are shut out and silence is only broken by nature it’s just spectacular and such a wonderful setting for a wedding. I was working in the Maidens Tower ironically in the drawing room and have to confess to loving this venue! I’ve stayed there but not in the actual Castle, they have what are cutely named stables which are smallish rooms overlooking the lake. My wife and I went on a hawk walk, fantastic walk through the grounds with a bird of prey following on the wing hunting.

As a wedding venue it’s truly stunning!

Caricatures at the Elephant Hotel in Pangbourne

admin — Mon, 27 Jun 2016 08:21:54 +0000

The Elephant Hotel, set in the bustling village of Pangbourne, beside the River Thames, minutes from the vibrant city of Reading, offers a return to the opulence of the Empire. This was the scene for me drawing caricatures at a wedding fair which showcased what the Elephant Hotel can offer.

I’ve worked here a few times and reports from the guests have always been very positive – so if you’re looking for a quirky location you should take a look it really is fun!

Caricature art and Pen art Mix

admin — Tue, 12 Jan 2016 09:33:44 +0000

For Christmas my wife kindly got me a great fountain pen and clutch pencil set. I had seen this guy at a local show in Bracknell he creates unique pens from wood or plastic. The designs are only limited by your imagination as he can use several different colours and types to create patterns and shapes. The quality of the work is second to none and the prices I thought very reasonable. I chose a light oak with an even lighter beech trim, the pen is well balanced and draws / writes really well. The pencil has a bit more width to the body and is nice to hold and sketch with. Pop over to his site and take a look at some of the wonderful designs he has created pensunique

Portraits by a caricaturist

admin — Tue, 14 Apr 2015 08:02:35 +0000

This time I had to stop myself slipping back into caricature mode. The job is for a book soon to be launched by a member of the House of Lords, so big noses were certainly not required (although I would have loved to do it)!

It worked out at 20 portraits in a month, which is a tall order and meant working on one a day. I managed to hit the deadline just!
