John
Live Party/Event Caricatures
“I never knew caricatures were actually supposed to look like the person!” That’s the most common response John hears when he’s drawing caricatures at an event. John is personable and very professional. He strives to create a flattering likeness, rather than a freakish exaggeration. In three hours John can draw 18 caricatures in color, 36 in black and white. The speed of each caricature depends on the the complexity of each drawing, which is dictated by the specific needs of the host. John can create pre-printed backgrounds design to commemorate your event. John’s other job is as a professional illustrator, and he has illustrated many popular chapter book series, including The A to Z Mysteries and The Bailey School Kids. John is also the author/illustrator of the picture book Dinosaur Train.
In addition to the traditional caricatures shown on this page, John also draws Digital Caricatures!
