Sean Platt, Caricature Artist, Columbus, Ohio

In 1984, Sean picked up a book called The Art of Caricature at a museum in Allentown, PA. He was at the museum for having his artwork selected by Crayola as one of 100 for a traveling exhibit. Irony or fate, this book, The Art of Caricature, created a new passion in his art completely separate from the type of artwork he submitted in the Crayola contest. From that time in the fourth grade until his senior year of high school, Sean spent most of his free time drawing caricatures. From 1992-1995, Sean attended Columbus College of Art & Design in Columbus, Ohio, where he majored in Illustration. While in his junior year, Sean got a job at Cedar Point Amusement Park doing caricatures. He continued this summer job until 1997. He also drew caricatures for various events in Columbus and eventually for Ohio University, where he finished his schooling with a BFA in 1998.

Since then, Sean has drawn caricatures for customers across the nation and overseas. Some of the highlights include: drawing virtually non-stop for a line that lasted 10 hours on the last day of the Circleville Pumpkin Show in Ohio and drawing caricatures of dogs at the first ever Wagfest in Ohio.

Past clients include: United Way, Fairfield Federal Savings and Loan, Diamond Power, Decorative Arts Center of Ohio, Bob Boyd Ford, Lancaster Eagle Gazette, Jim Fox State Farm Insurance, Community Transition Center of Lancaster, Kumler Collision, Scrappers Gallery, 1st Service Federal Credit Union, Wellspring Counseling, Village of Canal Winchester, and Ohio University.

Sean has also drawn for numerous festivals which include: The Circleville Pumpkin Show, The Columbus Arts Festival, Utica Ice Cream Festival, Lebanon Applefest, Clintonville Arts Festival, Worthington Old Market Festival, Groveport Arts Festival, Lancaster Arts Festival, Canal Winchester Labor Day Festival, Marion Arts Festival, New Albany Founder's Day Festival, Wagfest (dog festival), North Canton Festival, Worthington Arts Festival, Urbana Art Festival, Grandview Lazy Daze, Yellowsprings Art Fair, Centerville Americana Festival, Powell Festival, Delaware Arts Festival, New Albany Fall Festival, and the Dublin Irish Festival.
