This retirement caricature went not-too-far to Tuam before Christmas. It features lots of items from the subject’s life including sports involvement and work references. There’s a Kilconly GAA jersey, a button accordian, microphone, and a Tuam Herald (he’s a very loyal reader!) Also included is a signpost with various places important to him, and peeking in from the back is a cow!

School Principal Retirement Gift Caricature
School Principal Retirement Gift Caricature: this caricature was a gift for a retiring principal in a national school in Sligo. It includes many references and catchphrases! I got wonderful feedback on this one:
Hi Allan,
Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for the AMAZING cariacture you created for our Principal.
Absolutely brilliant, you are gifted at what you do – it exceeded all my expectations and you incorporated absolutely everything as requested – the Principal himself was just blown away and amazed by it; and my colleagues were so impressed with your work. Your name and details have been spread far and wide☺️
Thanks so much again for your professionalism and will hopefully order something again from you in the future.
Retirement Gift for Healthcare Worker
Retirement Gift Caricature: this personalised caricature was a gift for a cardiac resuscitation officer in Tralee who was retiring earlier this year. It’s the second piece I’ve done for this unit in University Hospital Kerry. It’s jam-packed with references to her work and the customer gave me a well-resourced brief with lots of photo references to work from! She’s wearing a maroon V-neck scrub top with “Resuscitation Officer” written on it. She’s also got on blue nitrile hospital gloves. The caricature is set in the resuscitation room in the hospital. She has an “IO drill” in her hand and she’s fiddling with knobs of a defibrillator on a crash trolley.
Retirement Gift Caricature UK
This retirement caricature went to the UK earlier this year. It’s the second piece I created for GB Fleetcare for a retirement, it’s nice to have a repeat customer! The subject of this piece flew in a World War II Spitfire for his 60th birthday so he’s got his flight suit on with the Spitfire in the background. There’s some very specific references to too, such as a Velosolex bike and a Piaggio trike, and an Italian flag on the flipchart! He’s got an allotment so I included a bag of fertiliser to symbolise that. He’s also very into drone flying so that’s included too! There’s also a Tesco truck in the background and he’s into fishing so he’s also holding a fishing rod!
Retirement Gift Caricature!
This is one of my personalised retirement caricatures available for delivery all over Ireland. He worked in cement manufacture hence the cement mixer and welding. He’s a massive GAA fan and is wearing a Cavan GAA jersey and there’s an O’Neill’s Gaelic Football in there too. He’s also a Manchester United fan and is wearing a Man Utd scarf. He’s very into gardening so that interest was included too. I’ve also included his pet Labrador and the produce of his garden ends up on the table so I’ve included some soup in there too! Lastly I’ve made some references to his hobbies of reading and fishing.
I got some really wonderful feedback from the customer too:
“Allan done a caricature of my dad as a gift for his retirement. The whole process from ordering to delivery of the was very simple and straight forward. The caricature he created really captured everythig about dads personality and resembled a real likeness of him too. We were all very impressed with it. Id highly recommend Allan, hes very talented at what he does. It was a very quick turnaround from order to delivery if the image. Thanks Allan.”
