Drawn by Mike - Caricatures from photographs

For Retirement gifts, long service awards, Significant Birthdays or Anniversaries. A caricature done in my humorous but gentle style fits the bill every time.

Just e mail a photo or two, and a brief description of the subject to me at mike@drawnbymike.com and I'll produce a totally bespoke drawing for you. My prices start at £85 for an A3 full colour individual commission.

Here's the process...

All I need from you is a happy smiley good quality photo or two of the subject (preferably not a selfie, as these usually present a distorted view ) and a brief description of character, hobbies, habits, catchphrases etc..etc..

I e mail or message a quick rough for your approval before i ask for payment and then a photograph or a thumbnail of the picture before I finish, just in case I’ve gone “off piste” with the art work.

I can work on paper, using pen and inks, or digitally on my i pad and mac, its entirely up to you which style you would prefer.

Unlike some digital artists who basically just trace over your photograph, and cut and paste onto a pre-drawn body, when I draw in as traditional a way as possible to get a real hand drawn feel.

You always get to see a copy of the picture, as an initial sketch for your comments, before you buy,

My prices are all inclusive. Special delivery next day postage and packing in a wide,stout cardboard tube come free with your order.

I can organise framing at an extra £35, including special delivery postage for an A3 commission.
