Goofy Faces Gift Questions
We've been in business since October of 2000. So we've been at this for quite a while. Plus, many of our caricature artists have been drawing caricatures professionally for over 40 years!
You won't find a better price on the internet for the quality of our caricatures. Each caricature is drawn, colored and rendered digitally to ensure the richest colors and line quality.
We currently accept Mastercard, Visa, and American Express. You can also send us a company or certified check.
That depends on the package you choose. If you order a digital caricature like our B&W digital caricature or color digital caricature, you can get your caricature in as little as 48 business hours from the time we receive your order! Standard delivery usually takes between 10 to 12 business days.
We do everything we can to make every customer happy with their caricature. If for any reason you are not happy with your caricature, please contact us to see what we can do to make it right.
We offer up to 4 people in one caricature for any of our standard packages. If you desire more than 4 people, you can order a custom package. Contact us for more details on custom orders.
You can do that. In fact, you'll save money. Once the art is created, you can buy as many copies of it as you'd like.
We maintain limited rights on all caricatures we create. That means we only require that you get our permission if you plan on reselling your art in some way or plan on using it for commercial purposes. You may reproduce your caricature yourself as many times as you like for your own personal use. Different charges apply for commercial use. We also reserve the right to republish your caricature for advertising, promotional or marketing purposes free of charge.
You're in luck. All caricatures are archived for a 5 year period. Just contact us and request a new order. You will not be billed for the art...only the reprint.
When creating a caricature from photos, the bigger the faces are, the better. A good photo can separate a good caricature from a great one. We request at least 2 photos of different angles so that we may see how the face looks under different circumstances. Include a full body shot, too. Sometimes a person's character is visible in their body or the way they stand. If you are scanning them into your computer, scan them at 200% of their size and at 72dpi (dots per inch). You can save them as a hi-res JPEG which will keep the file size small for e-mailing.
Goofy Faces Entertainment Questions
Entertainment caricatures are those we draw on-sight as entertainment for your guests or customers.
Well it's a long list. We have been hired as caricature entertainment for such events as company grand openings, trade shows, holiday parties and picnics. We have also entertained at wedding receptions, engagement parties and bachelorette parties. A huge favorite is birthday parties for children. Our caricatures are popular with any age group at just about any function you can dream up.
- Our caricature artists average between 10 to 15 faces in black and white per hour. Our artists offer faces-only or face and body. They can draw one or two faces at a time per drawing. Bags are included for each caricature.
We have hundreds of artists available in every major market in the U.S.A. Search for an artist near you with our online search.
We charge an hourly rate based on what kind of event you are planning, where you are located, and which artist you choose. Search for an artist near you to get started.
Many of our artists now offer eSketches™ which are live, color digital caricatures drawn on computer. Using an iPad, tablet or other digital system, eSketches™ are an exciting alternative to traditional caricatures. Each artist includes a color printer so your guests can take away an actual color print of their eSketch™ along with your logo or product included in the drawing. We also include a large display screen so your guests can watch each drawing take shape in front of their eyes.
Yes they are! Color caricatures are the same price per hour as black & white, but our artists usually draw about half as many.
Many of our clients and customers ask this question. Here is what we do to figure that out; First of all, unless it is a very intimate party with 30 guests or less, it is unlikely that everyone will have enough time to be drawn. But that’s ok. Not everyone wants a caricature. We have an online event calculator to help you decide how many artists you should book and for how long.
