Live Caricatures

Providing Artistic Entertainment for over 30 years

Bob Jorgensen has been drawing caricatures all over the Minneapolis and St. Paul metro area, as well as outstate Minnesota, and all over the upper Midwest for over 30 years.

Some general questions:

How many can you do in an hour?

  • Drawings with humor or "schtick" (the most popular and gets the most laughs)
    • Black & White: 6-8 faces per hour
    • Airbrush Color: 4-5 faces per hour
    • Digital: 4-5 faces per hour
  • Drawings with no "schtick"
    • Black & White: 8-10 faces per hour
    • Airbrush Color: 6-8 faces per hour
    • Digital: 6-8 faces per hour
  • "Heads on sticks"
    • Black & White: 10-12 faces per hour
    • Airbrush Color: 8-10 faces per hour
    • Digital: 8-10 faces per hour

What do I need to provide?

  • At least 3-4 chairs. One for me and two or three for guests.
  • Access to electricity, if drawing indoors or outdoors at night (after sunset).
  • Electricty is required for Digital jobs.

Are you available to travel?

  • You bet. For locations outside the Twin Cities area, I do charge extra for travel (ie, gas). For locations that requires air travel, we can talk.

Do you know any other artists if we need more?

  • I know a lot of other great caricature artists that are willing to draw for money.

Can you draw caricatures from photos?

You betcha! I ONCE drew a guy from a photocopy of a fax of a photo.

Somehow the drawing actually looked like the guy. It was published by Minneapolis-St. Paul CityBusiness.

Created in the studio, the finished product can be created with pencil, pen and ink and watercolors or digitally. Photos can be prints or digital copies.

The drawings are perfect for gifts, large special occasion cards, illustrations for publications or digital use, t-shirt designs, and many other uses. Digital copies of each drawing are also available.

What about pets?

I LOVE pets. Drawing them is pretty fun too.

Why should humans have all the fun? Caricatures of pets can be created either at live events or from photos. Contact Bob for more info.
