[View full gallery](https://mytribe.in/shivaraj_caricaturist/custom-caricature-gifts-from-photos/gallery) Watching a kid’s face light up when they see themselves as a cartoon? That is my favorite part of the job. Whether it is your little one or a playful pet, I capture those big, joyful expressions in a keepsake that lasts. ## Photos and videos - [Video: A look at the process of creating caricatures for kids from their photos. I can work in different styles, from simple black and white sketches to full color portraits, to match their bright personalities.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/154242da-bd96-47dc-abed-356b1276d888) - ![This little girl is holding her very own caricature, drawn in a cute, big eyed style.

Instead of a boring portrait session, I turn the art into a mini-performance where they get to watch their cartoon self take shape on my iPad or paper. Whether it is a birthday surprise or a custom gift for your pet-loving friend, I focus on capturing the energy and happiness in the room, not just a perfect likeness. My style is all about exaggeration with love. For kids, I lean into big eyes, bright expressions, and playful poses that match their energy. It is not just about drawing, it is about the reaction. When I am sketching live at birthday parties, I keep the pace fast so the entertainment value is high. Parents often tell me this was the hit of the party because the kids get something tangible to take home, a fun reminder of their special day. ### Digital Art or Tangible Keepsakes I offer two main ways to get these caricatures: * **Live Event Sketching:** Perfect for birthday parties, family get-togethers, or kid-friendly events in Bangalore and across India. The kids watch the magic happen, and it breaks the ice immediately. * **Custom Digital Illustrations:** Send me a clear photo of your child or pet (dogs, cats, even birds). I can work in black and white or vibrant colors. From there, we can print it on a high-quality coffee mug, a desktop standee, or frame it for the nursery. ### A Note on Pets Yes, I draw pets too. Whether it is capturing your dog’s goofy grin or your cat’s regal attitude, I treat them as part of the family. If you are looking for a birthday surprise or a heartfelt gift, let us chat. I will make sure the end result is a piece of art that makes you smile every time you look at it. Nageya rekhegalinda nenapina chitragalu! (Pictures of memories from lines of laughter!) ## About Shivaraj I have been sketching cartoons since I was a kid watching Tom and Jerry, and that same joy is what I bring to my art today. I do not just draw faces; I capture the real you—the laughter, the mischief, and the energy. When I am not sketching live at events, I am turning your photos into caricatures that make people smile.
