My caricature's usually show aspects of a persons life; personal interests, hobbies, sport, work - and often family pets are included! I try to combine these interests in a visually appealing illustration.
As you can see here the subject is very keen on rugby. If you recognize the flag then you're probably a rugby fan too.

I've started of with this simple illustration because of the brilliant feedback that it received and also because the illustration demonstrates that 'less is more'. When i produced the pencil drawing I was not prepared for the client's  reaction. I usually produce a pencil sketch for client approval and then go into final 'inking' and colour. But in this case the client said:
the sketch is perfect, it doesn't need colour! Well as you can see I managed to get some colour in as I suggested that it might be a good idea for the tartan of the kilt! My initail reaction was that the picture needed colour but when I review it now I am in complete agreement with the client.
