Order details:
“Martin worked in Quinns of Baltinglass ltd for 50 years and we wanted to mark the occasion with a caricature. His company van is green - the colour picked by him because green and white are the colours of Baltinglass Gaa club which he is heavily involved in. And include a Wicklow jersey is because he is the current county chairman. Martin is responsible for the assembly and storage of grain for the company. He always wears his Quinns hi-vis jacket. Baltinglass won the all club championship in 1990!
So do what you can with that”
"That is absolutely brilliant" - Pauline
From customer:
"I got 2 caricatures from you in the past and would like to get another done for a friends wedding. I have attached some pictures of the couple.
What I was thinking is that karen would wear the camogie jersey (red and black jersey no 3 + black skort + pair of wellies) and Michael would wear the black version of the jersey (picture attaced- he to wear no 1 + shorts + wellies). Could they be on a GAA pitch with goalposts + cows in background? They are GAA mad and Farmers."

"My God you're talented. That is brilliant" - Elaine

From Customer : "I have attached a few photos here so hopefully these should give you enough detail to work with. I mentioned the venue (Durrow castle,please see 2 photos attached) & the car (1 photo attached).
Can you also include some detail of the following: The brides dress. There was a heart shaped balloon theme going on throughout the wedding also (see attached one photo where they are cutting the cake, the balloon is beside it). I have attached a picture of their wedding invite - a bicycle theme, if this could be included someway. There was a ceili at the wedding so is it possible to include an instrument or two in some corner/area of the picture?"

Order details:
“It’s for a wedding gift, the couple got married in Ibiza so i was hoping to represent the wedding and the couple themselves. He was a punk so still likes some of the clothes, studs, patches and that. You could put the Anarchy sign somewhere. She is currently pregnant. When i think of the wedding i think of the couple on a beach, in a double four poster sun lounger. Could the roof of the sun lounger be thatch? (they live in a thatch cottage). There could be speakers or a record player to symbolise there love of music. Also maybe a Liverpool patch on Gordon and a peacock feather in Joan's hair”
