Barrie Draws Caricatures

Live caricatures are fantastic way to entertain your guests at a wedding or party. Whether as the perfect ice breaker for a drinks reception or some entertainment for your Gala / charity event  or Christmas party Caricatures are a sure-fire way to ‘wow’ your guests.

I am one of the top caricaturists in the United Kingdom the and overall winner of the prestigious Caricon International Caricature Convention and more recently winner of Hitched Entertainer of the Year 4 years running including 2024!  I am able to produce one high quality caricature every 2-3 minutes that many clients keep forever as a souvenir of their day.

I focus strongly on the entertainment value that I can bring to an event by mingling and chatting with your guests while drawing them. I aim to get a laugh from a group or table before moving on to the next group and draw the next 'victim'. This means that unlike many other caricaturists who work from an fixed easel there are no queues to wait in and I am  able to entertain large groups in a short period of time.

I am a full-time professional caricaturist with a decade of experience so can be relied upon to provide an outstanding service, that is more entertaining, faster and of higher quality than my competitors.

There are two types of caricatures I offer

Digital:  this is a good option if you want more of a wow factor and something more modern; the images are emailed or air dropped to the client and take about 6-7 minutes to draw.  This can be connected to a monitor at extra cost and is a good way of attracting customers to a certain location: a trade stand for example, (I can work either be from a fixed booth or mobile)

Mix and Mingle:  I will walk around drawing quick fire portraits this is great as I can provide entertainment and draw a portrait in a 3-4 minutes this helps to create a festive atmosphere and I can move to where they clients are.
