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.

Allan was very helpful and professional I left it late to order but Allan got it done for me.The drawing is excellent and captured all the little details in relation to my daughter.Sometimes when ordering on line a important gift, you are hoping it will not turn out as expected, not here the end result was better than I expected.Really delighted and so easy to order.Paul
Paul Fitzgerald05/02/21The best gift ever! A wonderful likeness, with so many of the listed hobbies included! What an excellent gift for a loved one. I certainly was not disappointed.Allan Cavanagh, the perfect gentleman and businessman. My advice is to contact him immediately with details of the image you want and Allan will do the rest! 👍

Allan delivered a superb drawing against a challenging timeline, delivery was earlier than I even expected. The team are delighted with the finished article which is a present for someone leaving the company. I would certainly recommend Allan’s work.

Thank you to Allan Cavanagh for his work on an order for a caricature I made recently. The caricature was exactly as requested with great turnaround time on the short notice given. I was delighted with the finished result. I would recommend Allan to anyone thinking of ordering his work as (along with his talent) he was so accommodating to deal with. Super......A. Neri

I ordered a caricature online from Allan for my cousin’s 30th. It arrived today and it’s brilliant! I know she’ll be delighted with it. Ordering was easy and delivery was prompt, very happy with the service I received!
Claire Kiernan12/09/20Very pleased with Allan's caricature drawing of my brother and sis in law. It arrived while we were away on a mini-break and my son emailed me a pic of it, which I opened whilst sitting in a full (socially distanced) restaurant dining room. Hubby and I were in a heap with laughter and got plenty of stares. I'll follow up with a pic of "the victims:)" and the caricature after it's given to them as a birthday present. Thanks again Allan. Great work.

Allan recently drew a caricature of my family, an updated version of one he did for us 10 years ago! He was a pleasure to deal with and the portrait is spot on for each of us in it. He is incredibly talented 💯 Thanks Allan
Hannah Hegarty12/08/20Allan was extremely professional and helpful.We commissioned a caricature of our boss as a Birthday present.Despite a small setback, Allan was courteous and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and on time.A nice guy, skilled artist, and a great product.Thanks Allan!

Allan took a commission for us recently and to say he knocked it out of the park was an understatement. Took the brief and ran with it, coming back with such a creative, brilliant and fun result. We can't wait to gift it to the person its for. Such a wonderful keepsake and gift idea, and really perfectly executed. Thanks Allan!
Ciara Walsh12/07/20Allan provided the entertainment at our wedding on Dec 6th 2020. Our guests were delighted with their caricatures and well impressed by the speed at which they were done. We have even seen some of our guests that loved them so much they had their caricatures framed!Another thing we'd like to point out is that Allan was very easy to deal with and very responsive to all our messages. I would recommend his services to anyone who needs something unique and fun for entertainment.Thanks very much Allan!
Eric Praud12/06/20Allan is such a joy to work with, professional and talented. I have commissioned two pieces from him and both times I was delighted with what he produced. His creativity and imagination captured the character of the people he was depicting. These were very important gifts that I wanted to be unique and precious to the receiver and I was not disappointed. Every time they look at the piece they see another element, another little quirk which brings a smile.

Definitely recommend using Allan for your caricature, he was so easy to deal with and the caricature was spot on even from just photographs and providing him information about the people via email.
Aileen O' Loughlin12/04/20We recently had Allan at our wedding and he was amazing! Allan was so quick at each drawing and kept all of our guest's entertained with each one. Everyone has been talking about it and the keepsakes they have been able to take home. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for something unique for their guest's.
Vanessa Kilpatrick12/03/20I got a piece recently from Allan for our 1 year wedding anniversary. It was absolutely amazing and herself loved it she was in shock for an hour at how cool, funny and detailed it was. 100% TOP CLASS. Would thoroughly recommend Allan, excellent to keep in contact throughout the entire process. Do not look any further than Caricatures Ireland by Allan 😊
Chris Power12/02/20 -
I bought a signing board canvas as a gift for a work colleague recently and it was amazing! Allan was really helpful when I was trying to decide what to order and the caricature looked really like the bride and groom! He incorporated all the items I suggested and the gift was very well received. I would definitely recommend!
Sally Keller12/02/20 -
Allan was absolutely fantastic at my wedding, despite timings being completely skewed, he ensured that all the guests had a wonderful experience in getting their portraits. He had a wonderful way with them, getting them to chat or discuss their interests and was so professional. We also got a wonderful signing board, as well as Allan providing us with a picture for our thank you cards. All of my guests were so thrilled with their pictures - I would highly recommend Allan!

Colin Turke12/02/20We are delighted that we booked Allan for our Wedding on the 8th of December 2018. Allan has a great personality and is wonderful at what he does. Several of our guests have commented on Allan and their joy at having a caricature done at the wedding, a great momento of the day. I cannot recommend Allan highly enough.
Mary-Ellen NiCheidigh12/02/20Allan was an absolute joy to deal with. He made everything so easy for us and we were absolutely thrilled with the end product.

Our guests were just amazed and such a perfect alternative to the usual photo booth. Thanks a trillion Allan, we are all singing your phrases 😊 Caroline and Shaun McCarville xo
Shaun McCarville12/02/19 -
Redited- Allan spotted my review on here and contacted me immediately. He had genuinely missed my email. He rectified it straight away and sent out a sketch. He dealt with the situation really well and I think that's a sign of really good customer service.EDITED. Allan was supposed to send us a sketch of ourselves after the wedding because he left before we got back to the hotel. He never did, and didn't respond to emails. Left a bad taste.Original review belowMy husband and I got Allan for our wedding coctail hour in Galway June 2017. Allan was super easy to deal with and very professional. In the run up to a wedding you appreciate straight forward suppliers who respond quickly and Allan did just that. Delighted we went with him.
Lisa H12/02/19Allan did a superb caricature of my sister and husband on their wedding day. Every detail was perfect and they were really thrilled to receive it. Highly recommend Allah's caricatures, a great wedding present!
Daire Dillon12/02/19This was my second time requesting a caricature from Allan and once again he did not disappoint! The first was a caricature for my wedding and the second was a request from my dad for a caricature of a friend who had a big birthday coming upAllan is just fantastic and so talented, he manages to capture features and expressions to an absolute tee, the extras he adds to his caricatures like the persons interests, hobbies etc , add that extra personal element to his drawingsOn both occasions the caricatures received over whelming responses 🙂 Allan himself is so professional and friendly, I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a caricaturist and I will definitely be ordering from him again in the future!
Lynn Whelan12/02/19 -
Allan was a pleasure to deal with, a few quick emails and all was sorted. Our wedding guests loved their caricatures and it added a great buzz to our reception. I'd highly recommend Allan for any event, he wont dissapoint.
Grace Talbot12/02/19Couldn’t thank Allan enough. What an amazing talent. He did an amazing Caricature of my daughter Caoimhe’s for her 21st. She was thrilled with it.
Gerardine Hickey12/02/19We wanted a unique wedding invitation and contacted Allan with a picture of both of us and a few ideas on what he might include in the caricature. He got back with an amazing caricature of us with the venue we were to be married in on the background. We created a wedding invitation ourselves with this picture and were so impressed with the reaction we got from guests we decided to hire Allan on the Wedding Day too in Cabra Castle in Cavan to do LIVE caricatures. We were delighted with response from our guest s. He even took photos of our guests next to the completed caricatures which we really appreciated seeing afterwards as had been too busy on the day to see them done. We felt also it was a classy form of entertainment that matched our venue perfectly and in our opinion provided a lot more entertainment than the usual selfie machine you see regularly these days. Could not recommend Allan enough!!
Brian Warnock12/02/19 -
Allan was a massive hit at our wedding! All the guests loved him! We have seen so many of our guests frame the caricatures he did on the day. It was such a great touch and really made our reception special. We absolutely love our canvas and have hung it up now, it is such a nice way to transport us back to the day and read all the messages from our guests! Thanks for everything Allan, we can't recommend you highly enough!
Caroline Marron12/02/19I booked Allan as a wedding gift for my brother and delighted i did. He was very professional, his work was top notch and he engaged with all the crowd. Eveyone was gathered around him as he did his masterpieces. We all had a great laugh at them afterwards. What made it cool was the end of the page had the wedding couple's weddin date and names are there so a great gift to remember.

Allan entertained our wedding guests , we were amazed with the wonderful caricatures he produced , as my husband said in his speech " Allan made some of the guests good looking even if it only was on paper " . our guests are still talking about the fun they had with Allan and the great caricatures they took home
Louise Phillips12/02/19 -
We booked Allan for our wedding at the beginning of October. He travelled quite a distance to be with us and it was a pleasure to have him as part of our day. He really added something special to the day... guests are still talking about how great he was. And deservedly so! He had a constant queue and went above and beyond to make sure that everyone was taken care of. Guests were so thrilled with his caricatures. Allan is a true professional and a wonderful artist. We can’t thank him enough.
