This is a series of caricatures I did for various ESB staff who were either retiring or moving on to new positions elsewhere. I drew a lot of wires with these ones! I had to be very specific too with certain equipment that corresponded with the subjects’ areas of expertise. There are also several items and background details placed in the caricatures that have particular relevance to each of the subjects, such as Singapore landmarks and particular ESB vans. Each caricature was framed and delivered by courier. Great fun and I look forward to drawing more next year!
