Remember back to when you were a child, packing up the car and heading to the local fair. The anticipation of the games, toys and rides. The sweet smells of Cotton Candy, Caramel Apples and other gooey treats. Remember Mom and Dad stopping by a booth to get a funny picture made of their face? Usually the cartoon picture made them look just like a character from the looney toons. The whole family laughed as the caricature artist started to draw Dad with a tiny body and a huge head. The cartoonist created a drawing of Mom with giant red lips and a rosey pink cheeks, Mom never looked so good! When the masterpiece of cartooning was complete the artist signed his work and you knew it was your turn to get in the chair and have the caricature artist sketch your face into any character you could imagine. A cartoon picture, with you as a cowboy, or a space man, or a body builder with gigantic muscles. The possibilities were endless. Of course you could pick silhouettes as well. They make beautiful family memoirs and are great for scrapbooking.

When you left the fair you and your brothers and sisters all hung your caricatures on the fridge next to each other and the anticipation started all over again. You had a whole year to decide whether to be the Cowboy, or the Indian.

Re-live those fond memories and hire a caricature artist at your next special event. PartyPop.com has nationwide listings of Caricature and Silhouette artists for party and special event entertainment.
