A More In-Depth Look: Often while drawing at festivals, Sean is asked whether he does caricatures from photos, either for gift-giving purposes or because a loved one is not present. In response to this need, Sean has tailored the gift caricature option as one similar in method as a caricature purchased at a festival but with more time spent and more detail added to the caricature.
Method: Gift caricatures are done on 11" x 14" paper using colored pencil sticks, the same method used at festivals.
Procedure: Once a request is made by using the "order request" link above or by calling, Sean will send a form via email to gather more information about your request. Upon receiving this information, Sean will send a quote via email for your desired caricature services. If a desire is expressed to proceed, an invoice will be sent requesting a down payment of half for work to begin on the caricature. Invoice for remaining balance will be sent with order. Please clickhere for important information regarding reference pictures,etc.
To keep costs minimal, no sketch is approved beforehand. However, an initial sketch can be purchased at an additional cost of $10. Any revisions of initial sketch are at a cost of $10-$40 depending on the extent of revision.
When completed, gift caricature orders are shipped in a bag within a tube. (Colors do not smear.) Fed Ex Ground is used as primary carrier unless specified otherwise by customer. An e-mail will also be sent with the Fed Ex tracking number.
Payment Methods: Payment can be made by check, cash, or PayPal. (If Paypal is desired, an invoice will be sent through Paypal via e-mail. Payments can be made by credit card through the Paypal website.) A deposit of at least half is needed before work can begin.
Overseas Orders: Overseas orders can be sent as e-mail attachments, paid for by way of PayPal. Same costs, minus shipping/handling, apply for orders sent as an attachment via e-mail. E-mail attachments are sent in JPEG format, set at 200 dpi resolution, saved at maximum quality, and kept at original size.
Time Frame: Typical turn-around time is 7-10 days (not counting time to ship).
