Rob Dumo. Caricatures

I’ll draw non-stop whoever wants to be drawn at your event. This usually means black and white faces. As one of the fastest artists in the area I can average between 20 and 30 faces per hour with a steady line of people. For smaller events I can draw in color or even add body themes. I can do more like 8 to 12 people per hour this way. I draw at an easel so anyone waiting to be drawn can be entertained by watching who I’m currently drawing. This works the same for digital caricatures, which are displayed on a 32” monitor. Traditional caricatures are drawn on paper that is roughly 11” x 15”. I can provide a custom footer on the paper I draw on for an additional fee. Digital caricatures are printed out on 4” x 6” photo paper and include a free footer added. Custom body templates can be applied to these sketches at additional cost. Digital caricatures can also be emailed to you after the event.

I’ve been working as a professional caricature artist since 17. Starting at a local theme park, I’ve had the opportunity to learn from some of the greatest caricature artists in the country. This has helped me develop into one of the top caricature artists in western New York. On top of my local work, I’ve traveled all over the country to both draw with and train other artists. I’m also a member of ISCA (International Society of Caricature Artists). At the yearly ISCA convention I’ve received awards in the categories for Retail/Party Style, Best Likeness, Best Body Themes, Most Humorous, and I’ve placed in the top ten Fastest competition.

In order to do my best job sketching I require adequate lighting for a venue that might be darker or an outdoor event that goes into the evening. Outdoor events require that I be placed under cover from the elements so whoever I’m drawing and myself don’t bake in the sun or get rained on.
