I'm Tane Richardson, Australian portrait artist and cartoonist. I've been drawing people's faces ever since I could hold a pen.
Before I began creating Gift Caricature, I was a graphic designer and web developer for 5-6 years. I was bored.
I eventually decided I had to follow my passion before it was too late. I stopped my web dev work cold turkey to become a caricaturist.
Since then life has been awesome. I look forward to every day full of drawing portraits. There's nothing that can give me a bigger kick than getting a likeness right and getting loads of caricatures done in one day. It's a huge feeling for me.
I hope you can follow your passion too. It's worth it.
