Personalised CARICATURE gift drawing from photos.

Hi. You are bidding on a

custom CARICATURE DRAWING

by myself, a professional cartoonist for over 10 years.

You are bidding for my sample brochure and order form only.

With this you can order your custom drawing.

A brief outline of prices and choice of options available:

*BUDGET CARICATURE: This is supplied digitally via email as a black and white drawing only, so you can either use it for web/email use or print off as many copies as you like! Drawing is A4 size.

Prices start at £35.

*COLOUR CARICATURE. Same as above but supplied in colour.

Prices from £45.

Have the above posted to you on photo paper for framing for an additional £5. Or go for upgrades such as A3 size, supplied on CD as a Jpeg for web use, or have it supplied mounted/framed.

FAQ:

Why buy from you? There's other cheaper offers on here... - Unlike many cheap offers of caricatures listed on ebay, I provide a professional service as I provide cartoons and caricatures for publications. I advertise this service elsewhere, have been doing it for years and have had many, many satisfied customers. You are getting a drawing by a professional, not an amateur. Ask yourself how long would someone spend on your drawing if all they earn is £15 or so (before ebay & paypal fees are deducted).Feel free to compare the type of drawing on the cheaper auctions with my samples.

What's your background? I am a freelance Cartoonist, but was the resident Cartoonist at The Sunderland Echo. I've featured in many magazines and newspapers (including The Sun). I also produce my own range of Geordie Greeting cards which have sold well, and are available for sale in my other items.

What do I get for my money? -Well, my caricatures start at £35 for a black and white digital image sent via email. However custom upgrades can be applied to your requirements. You can have upgrades to colour and even up to A3 size. Images can be supplied as Jpegs for websites or printed out on photo-paper. Extra people/pets/cars can be included in your drawing...though these will have an additional charge. You can have the image supplied on CD or mounted and framed.

How do I order? -Win the auction, and I'll send you my sample brochure and order form. Return the completed form with payment and wait for the postman/check your email for your drawing!

How long does a drawing take? -Depends on the amount of work involed - colour takes longer than black and white,email is faster than the postal service, etc. Please allow 10-14 days for your artwork. I need a drawing urgently and can't wait for the auction to end... -Contact me and I'll see what I can do for you! Please note funds must clear before work can start.

Who owns the copyright to the drawing? -The image is sold with the permission of the owner to use freely for personal use (website/stationery use). However, the image must not be published/printed in the media without prior arrangement with the artist.

What are they potentially used for? -Caricatures can make great Wedding presents, retirement gifts, leaving work, Christmas or birthday presents. Head-only caricatures can be used in your website for that personal touch, or put the image in your business cards and letterheads!

If I don't like the finished drawing do I get a refund or a replacement? -Unfortunately I can't give any guarantees. Because caricatures are art, it is very much a personal like/dislike thing, and in theory if I were to offer this guarantee I could be drawing & redrawing the same caricature for eternity!. A caricature based on photo's is very much dependent on how good the photo's are - the better the photo's the better the drawing will be. Rest assured that a drawing is worked on until I feel happy with it - I go for quality rather than quantity!
