KOUROSH (founder of Creative Caricatures)

Over 30 years of experience, along with his peculiar sense of humor, has made Kourosh one of the most sought-after caricaturists and entertainers in Atlanta. Having a degree in Architecture and Engineering has not helped much, but that hasn't stopped his work from being featured in Time Magazine, CNN, and many other publications across the US and Europe. Kourosh created caricatures for the 1988 Democratic convention, and the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, GA and been commissioned by many fortune 500 companies including: Coca Cola, Mercedes Benz, Ford Motor Co., AT&T, Sears, and more. From the day Kourosh decided to pick up a pencil and start drawing, the world has not been the same.

Mark

I started drawing caricatures at Six Flags Over Georgia in the mid-1970's and since then have drawn hundreds of thousands of them for countless corporations, private parties, schools and festivals. Primarily, I draw black & white profile caricatures (a BIG head on a little body doing whatever the subject wants to be doing - hobby, sport, ANYthing - and I am very good and very FAST. It takes me approximately 3 minutes to draw a BIGhead Cartoon - so guests don't wait too long in line. 

 

In recent years, I have added full-face caricatures (with or without little bodies) as an option and I also offer DIGITAL caricatures drawn on an iPad! My goal is to create a cartoon portrait of my subject and I strive for a likeness that YOU will like. Mark does digital caricatures as well as black and white and color.

Destin Andrews

"For as long as I can remember, I've always had a deep love for art and the drive to improve artistically. From a young age I have always had a great support system from my family and friends, which really drove me to improve myself creatively. At 16 years old I finally landed my first job as a caricature artist at Six Flags over Georgia. From there, I learned about a new passion- caricature. Working as a caricature artist, I found myself changing. My artistic skills were improving big time. Not only that, but my personality was beginning to flourish as well. I used to be the quiet and shy type, but caricature made me have to interact with customers. I found myself learning so much from people and loved it. Caricature helped me overcome my anxiety with crowds. It has given me so much! I don't think i can ever give caricature up now."
