Birthday Gift Caricature from Photos

birthday gift caricature allan cavanagh caricatures from photos

This caricature was a birthday gift for the chap holding the basketball and it has running, cycling and horse-riding as its themes! I didn’t have any photos of his pet dog so I referenced it with paw prints which you’ll see on the ground if you look closely!

August is now booked up but I have some slots for September if you want to order a caricature in the meantime and if you’re thinking of ordering a caricature for that major holiday that begins with a C and ends with a hangover I would get in touch at the start of November at the absolute latest as slots are limited and allocated on a first come first served basis! That was a long sentence!

This was a birthday gift caricature for the pictured gentleman! He’s a writer with an interest in history, poetry, baking and coffee, and there’s plenty of coffee-making paraphenalia included! There’s also a quill and ink included in the foreground. The baking is represented by the tray of biscuits and the baker’s hat! He’s on the receiving end of computers and phones that need updating or repair, so I’ve included those too. He’s also a former hurler Also so I’ve included a hurley with his team’s colours (yellow and green). In the background you can see The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers. He’s also a fan of a glass of red wine! Last but not least his pet cat makes an appearance in the foreground, “looking after” his book of poetry.
