Dudley Moore tinkling the ivories

Dudley Moore © Peter Gander

This classic pen-and-ink original drawing was simply commissioned for a fan of the actor. It does demonstrate nicely for me proof indeed that I can obtain a good likeness as few people will be able to tell that from my other posts of complete strangers! (See also: Chris Tarrant, below).

Commission a Toontrait

Perfect for the person who has everything (apart from a tailormade cartoon portrait). All I need from you is a good-quality image of the person you would like parodied, some hints, ideas or hobbies that they partake in or a particular moment that you would like to capture, plus the date you need the finished painting or print. I will send back a 'scamp', such as the one shown below, a quick, thumbnail-style drawing of the idea (but not a likeness at this stage) for approval prior to producing the final artwork. Prices start from £150, depending on desired size or content. Framing (if desired), packaging and postage are £10 UK only or email for quote, depending on your location.
