“I have previously got a caricature off you and was looking for another for a friend of mine that got married.
They eloped just the two of them. Married October 27th. Had celebration in Shelbourne Hotel Dublin with cocktails. Here are two pictures I managed to get from his sister that attended”
“Perfect. Ideal. Thanks a million” - Emma
“You did an amazing caricature for me last Christmas for my sister, and now I think I’ll get something similar for my other sister.
Again it will be photos of her and her boyfriend, they met doing drama, he’s the director.
So I was thinking the caricature could be set on a stage with him directing her and her on stage acting out something. Could you then incorporate all the names of the plays they’ve done before in it somehow?”
“Brilliant thanks so much!!!” - Kate
“I am wondering can I get a picture done with you again?
My sister Maria got engaged. She is a teacher and plays camogie so I would like that included.
Jimmy is heavily involved in Kilkenny hurling so I want him wearing a Kilkenny jersey with Bainisteoir on it. I'll attach Picts of them first and I'll send the other details once your ready for them"
“Hi Brendan, I just want to thank you so much for the picture. It was brilliant they loved it” - Emer
ORDER DETAILS:
“I would like two in the same caricature if you can...Early evening, the first one with the pose to be of him with his legup on the wall as he is in one of the photos but wearing a sheepskin coat(like John Motson used to wear) If you could do him holding a glass of red wine that would be good.
The second pose would be him later in the evening flat on the floor after tripping up over a kerb! It is for his 75th Birthday”
"Brilliant work, once again. Thank you." - Alan

We'd like a cartoon of him, perhaps reading a book on politics or a novel (his favourite pastime!) in a garden chair? With his dog at his feet, and a glass of wine"

“Can we put her on horseback, with just a veil for the bride bit streaming out behind her, as if she was in a horse race. She should be wearing red and white colours on her riding jacket , but instead of a whip in her hand a mobile phone .
Behind on the side she is riding from, a betting board and bookie. The bookie should have his back to us but be bald and have diving flippers instead of shoes! She should be riding towards a bit of the Cork coastline, sea hills etc, and there should be the temple on the top. Is that all possible?”
"It's arrived Brendan . Thank you so much , pleasure as always." - Celine
