Forever Friends - A man and his car.


Yesterday (March 4) was our son's 34th birthday and naturally I made him a card, and presented him with a mounted print. Julian bought this car around 10 years ago and when he was starting to get successful with his company, Regency Chess Limited, about 5 years later he part exchanged it for an Audi A4.

Julian often wondered what happened to his much loved silver VW Golf. He said he wished he'd kept it and might try and track it down. If it was still on the road and well cared for he might even buy it back!

Well, the present owner of the car tracked him down and a few weeks ago and Julian paid the car a visit in Birmingham. When the guy is ready to sell it, it looks like he'll have a ready buyer. Isn't that what you call SERENDIPITY?

Who do you know who is in love with their car and would love a similar custom cartoon of themselves?

Cartoon for a party invite



Angie contacted me because she had seen my custom cartoons on my website. She and her partner, Ben, were leaving Hong Kong and throwing a party to say goodbye to their friends.

Angie confessed to being a bit OTT when it comes to parties. They wanted a picture that would go on an invite, a huge canvas block print, and on the top of a cake!!

A super photo was emailed across to me with details of how they wanted to be dressed. A Hong Kong skyline and boat were in the brief.





The couple were delighted with the result, completed within a week of our first contact. The cake has all been devoured, but Angie and Ben have a lasting memento of their life in Hong Kong.

Get in touch with me if you would like a custom cartoon for your special event or a unique gift.
