Mother’s Day might be still eight weeks away, but now is the time to be thinking about a family caricature for a Mother’s Day Gift idea.

Rather than getting everyone to try and sit still, our artists can work from several photos wo produce a wonderful keepsake.

Have a look at this great example.

What an ideal gift for any Mother!

Here is a brief show of how a couple of photos can be transformed into a very nice caricature gifts.

The instructions for the job were that these two sisters should be shown dancing on stage, dressed as if they were in an Oliver Twist play.

The artist (Harry in this case) then provided this pencil sketch to make sure all was as it should be.  Some changes were to rid the small microphones, to put hats on the girls and to lower the hand on one of the girls.

Here is the final image all coloured and ready to go give. I am sure you will agree that it made a wonderful family caricature gift!!

Here is a nifty way to see the amazing before and after shown as a morphing. This morph is achieved by taking the original photo and a scaled down version of the final caricature and creating reference points to make the before and after a  seamless transition.

This art was drawn by artist Shane.

We have had a couple of changes in our artist line up in recent weeks.

Artist Roy has taken on a new life challenge including moving country and as a result has needed to rationalize his activities, so it is a sad farewell to Roy after three years dedicated artistic services.

Artist Rick has also been busy developing new perspectives and another long-time part of our team has downsized his external commitments.

We do welcome a new artist called Luis, who brings a fun perspective to our range of offering, with a big head little body approach. Here are  samples:
