I used to illustrate Charlie Adley’s weekly column in the Connacht Tribune and while the specifics are lost to me at this stage (this cartoon is from 2006!) Charlie had mentioned an exceedingly spoiled cat he’d read about! Want to order a caricature? Click here. Want to make an enquiry? Click here. See my reviews … Read more

This caricature was a going away gift for a couple who were very active in their community. They’re surrounded by significant items from their lives such as the Foroige folder, the name of their local community centre, and in the background the playground they were involved in developing. They’re wearing the colours of their favourite teams, with a half-Offaly and half-Liverpool t-shirt on him and a Waterford GAA t-shirt on her. Their cat makes a guest appearance too! I’ve included a nod to David Bowie which you can spot to the right of the cat. Also pictured are references to beauty therapy and furniture restoration.
