Full Biography
Everybody loves caricatures. They can bring a smile to the face of any jaded cynic. As presents they are personal and unique, as entertainment they are fun and leave lasting memories and as promotional items they make a big impression. The great thing about caricatures is that they can be used just about anywhere - from Christmas cards to leaving presents - and that their cost can be tailored to your budget.
Ivor is unique in that he flatters people in his caricatures. He is like a cosmetic surgeon without the pain or the price. In just five minutes he executes a makeover of his subject and takes years off their age as well as a few pounds off their figure (if they need it).
It's no wonder Ivor has been commissioned by the Houses of Parliament to draw some senior political figures. You too will look absolutely fabulous when captured by Ivor's pen; its no wonder he's in such demand when it comes to weddings. Accept no substitutes, demand Ivor for your function!
Weddings
This is becoming more and more popular. For those times when very little is happening in the proceedings or during the meal, a live caricaturist can entertain the guests and leave them with a cherished memento of the day. Caricatures of the bride and groom can also be done for the wedding stationery. They can either supply just the illustration or handle all the printing for you as well. BEWARE; some caricaturists exaggerate the features of the sitter in a grotesque manner, Ivor's style is to capture a likeness in a flattering style.
A black and white drawing takes only five minutes on an A4 sheet of card.
Corporate Dinners
Gain extra kudos for your event with a live caricaturist who entertains the guests during pre-dinner drinks and through dinner. Drawings can be done on letter headed notepaper so that when they are framed, faxed or put onto some intranet the client or event is still being promoted.
Ivor's style is perfectly suited for corporate events - no one is ever offended. Pre-specified backgrounds can also be used to tie in with any themed event. A black and white drawing takes only five minutes on an A4 sheet of card.
Please note: Full balance to be paid by BACS to Ivor The Artist 7 days in advance of your event date.

Rachael D booked Ivor The Artist for their party in Shropshire • September 2025
“Ivor came to my daughters 25th. He arrived on time, was really professional, helpful and friendly. Everybody loved him. His drawings were fab. I would really recommend him. ”
Joyce L booked Ivor The Artist for their wedding in Cumbria
“Ivor quietly went around the room intrusively giving our son’s wedding an extra dimension. Only later did I find out that our guests had been thoroughly entertained by his work. Would definitely recommend. Our own ‘portrait’ now takes pride of place in our bar and is always a great talking point. Thanks Ivor.”
