Ernest Posey Caricatures
Overview
The fun begins with the first stroke of my marker and laughter soon follows. I do more than just make the drawing look like you; I turn up the volume by including that special aspect of your personality that
people will recognize. Your guest will be taking home a little piece of the party to be enjoyed for years to come.
I always leave 'em laughing.

October 19, 2026Hire him!
We hired him for our daughter’s wedding. We were a little nervous as we had never done anything like this. We shouldn’t have been! It went so smoothly. He arrive on time, set up and began working. A line formed and didn’t go down all night. He was a big hit. Guests loved their caricatures. Ernest even did a very special caricature for the bride and groom. We would 100% hire him again!

June 25, 2026The Perfect Addition to Our Celebration
We hired Ernest Posey for our backyard party, and he was great! He arrived on time, was professional, friendly, and made everyone feel comfortable. His caricatures were a huge hit with guests of all ages and added such a fun, unique touch to our celebration. We received so many compliments, and everyone loved taking home their drawings as keepsakes. I highly recommend Ernest for any event and would absolutely hire him again!

What to expect
You'll laugh at my drawings of your friends and family then you'll laugh at a drawing of yourself.
About
I grew up in a great time of art and animation. My artistic style is influenced by classic Disney animation like Beauty and the Beast and the Little Mermaid. The genius of the Looney Tunes, Hanna Barbara cartoons and a local kid's show called Cartoon Town was more than enough to boost a young boy's love for art to the next level. I graduated from Columbia College with a B.A. in Advertising Graphics and have been working as a professional artist for years.
I always arrive to an event 30 minutes early and dressed for the theme or occasion. I'm polite and professional. I great at entertaining all age groups. I bring my own table and lights. All I need from the client are chairs and a shaded area if outdoors.
