Glynn Edwards
Caricaturist - Cartoonist
Caricaturist Glynn Edwards of Warwickshire is available for bookings
Glynn Edwards is UKs 'spot on' caricaturist. He has been drawing and entertaining people for over 35 years and his skills have taken him worldwide!
Glynn pioneered this art form as an entertainment back in the 70s after a trip to America where it was already well established.
It took the next ten years or so to build his business and reputation in the UK before he could go full time! He started his working life in publishing with IPC Magazines before he created and published his own magazine 'Adline' which later sold to work full time as a caricaturist and cartoonist and he hasn't looked back since.!
Glynn reminds us of the many adventures over the years like drawing the Sheik of Dubai, Mohammed Bin Rashid al Maktoum at a lavish New Years' Eve party in Dubai surrounded by bodyguards looking over his shoulder where one wrong line and who know what could have happened! As it was the Sheik was thrilled with his picture and gave him a generous tip.
Amongst his claim to fame moments is entertaining at Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth's 80th Birthday party at the Ritz Hotel with guests made up of Senior Royals, Ladies in Waiting and top Courtiers. The following day he was working for Sainsbury's - in store!
Well that's showbiz for you!
