Good news! My framed caricatures are now available again! During lockdown I had to temporarily suspend the option to get your caricature framed due to retail restrictions but we’ve figured out a safe workaround. I’m delighted to announce the framing option is back in place.

Retirement present for NUIG!
This caricature was a present for a retiring lecturer in the NUIG School of Law. I love drawing caricatures that are packed with personal references, with little details like the picture of the Quad in NUIG really enriching the piece. Below is the same piece framed.

Caricatures are ideal presents for birthdays as they’re totally unique and can incorporate so much of the subject’s personality and interests.
