Full Biography
MGI Live Caricature is one of the UK’s finest and most in-demand live caricaturists, with an immensely confident, clean style and rare ability to capture spookily accurate likenesses! Combine this with a friendly, genuine personality and easy ability to converse with people from all walks of life, and you have an unbeatable entertainment choice that will have guests talking for years to come.
Working from a traditional easel with nothing but black and grey marker pens (i.e. “the old-fashioned way”) clients and guests regularly tell the artist how magical it is to see a blank sheet of paper explode into life with hilarious, perfectly exaggerated likenesses of their friends, loved ones and colleagues, and at such speed: each subject is usually captured in five minutes or less!
MGI Live Caricature has been a professional caricaturist and humorous illustrator for over twenty years. His career so far has seen him create thousands of caricatures at events all over the UK and beyond, win international awards for exaggerated likeness, and work as the acclaimed character designer behind ITV’s ‘Newzoids’. He has also performed caricatures aboard Celebrity Cruises in Scandinavia and the Mediterranean, and has had illustrations personally commissioned by Jack Whitehall and the BRIT Awards.

What a fabulously talented, witty and friendly guy he is.
Fiona O booked MGI Live Caricature for their Wedding in Northumberland • October 2023
“Wow. What can I say about Mike other than what a fabulously talented, witty and friendly guy he is. We booked him to fill a 2 hour interlude between Reception and Evening do at my daughters wedding for something a bit different and he was a massive hit with everyone whether they were just watching or taking part in a sitting. Great for guests to have a fun keepsake of the day to take away too. Just wish h he could have stayed longer as so many people wanting one and ran out of time. Would highly recommend.”

I can't speak highly enough of his exceptional skills and wonderful personality. From the moment Mike arrived, he was not only professional but also incredibly polite and friendly. He made all of our guests feel at ease, and his warm demeanour added a special touch to our wedding. Mike's caricature artistry is simply outstanding. He has an uncanny ability to capture people's personalities and features with humour and precision. The caricatures he created for our guests were not just drawings; they were pieces of art that brought smiles and laughter to everyone's faces. What truly stood out about Mike was his willingness to go the extra mile. He worked tirelessly and even went into overtime to ensure that my bride's parents received a caricature before he called it a day. That level of commitment and thoughtfulness ...”
