Profile
With a Cambridge art school background, Luisa Calvo is one of the UK's leading female caricaturists. Working extensively throughout europe and the UK since 1985, Luisa has shown her talent at all manner of private and public functions, producing 12 - 15 caricatures per hour. During her European travels, she made a four month daily TV appearance, in which she sketched celebrities while they were being interviewed, including HRH Prince Phillip of Spain. The BBC were quick to spot Luisa's ability, and commisioned her work for various productions including 'Jonathan Creek', 'One foot in the grave' and 'Beasts'. She has also appeared in front of the BBC cameras when interviewed about her work, and she produced the magnificent mural for the National Television Awards 2000 at the Royal Albert Hall in London.
At your wedding reception Luisa begins by mingling with your guests during the champagne reception and drawing fast caricatures in less than 5 minutes, presented to your guests in attractive envelopes. Luisa visits each table at the wedding breakfast, so that everyone can enjoy the entertainment as she captures your wedding day. Luisa always draws a double caricature of the bride & groom and every guest on the top table. Luisa can also produce colour "bride & groom" caricatures from photos before the event, as a special present for the bride & groom. As an additional service Luisa can hold on to the top table drawings and produce a studio group caricature, by scanning and reproducing originals and arranging them together. Luisa can then print out as group caricature for each guest, which you can send along with the originals, to everyone on the top table. Luisa's artwork is best appreciated in the moment when it is being drawn. However, the images in the reproductions here should give you a clear indication of her marvellous talent for on the spot caricature.
