Guess the celebrity characterature

Can you guess who this celebrity is?

I have decided to start the new year of 2012 with a fun contest for all my readers. How the contest works is thus: I draw a cartoon caricature of a well known TV or Movie celebrity, and then people leave comments stating what they think it is.


As you can see from this first (of many I hope) contest entry I have now become an accomplished cartoon caricature artist, making instantly recognizable caricatures of celebrity faces. I can also provide YOU with an unique gift for a loved one, or someone who is retiring (and you'll no doubt never see again before they die).


Contact me if you'd like a celebrity portrait caricature. Prices start from just £20 + VAT and fees.  

The Rejection Section

Hears the first cartoon in the new feature I thought of for this blog - The Rejection Section ©. This cartoon was sent to over 8 different publications, and yet surprisingly, despite the fact it's been specially 'hand shaded' they all rejected it. Well, I'd like to be able to say they rejected it, but the fact is - they ignored it. How very rude! That's 8 more publications that are on my shit list.

The way things appear to be going, there's only going to be Smash Hits magazine, and MotorHome Monthly left to accept my hilarious cartoons.

If you know of a publication that deserves the chance to publish my unique humourous cartoons, then please let me know. The local post office to be has quite a limited range of periodicals, and Mrs Braithwaite gets a bit upitty if I spend too long fingering her glossies.

Anyone Can Cartoon

The rather warm weather we have here at Crimper Heights reminds me of a cartoon idea I had when the drive was covered in snow. It proves that anyone can cartoon.

First, you don't draw anything because it's a snow scene. Then you add four black splodges. These are the eyes of two snowmen standing side by side. Next the caption...

"Some snowstorm that" says snowman number one. Let's call him Hector.
"Indeed" replies the other who we'll call Tristan to prove he's younger. "I can't even see my carrot."

Boom Boom!

There we have it. A superb cartoon that I should have sent to Private Eye. And I can't even draw.

[Edit} That should read "lengthy tree lined drive".

What a super idea for a cartoon Mr Crimpers. I have taken the liberty of 'visualising' your creation for you!
