Adriano Candelori (sketch)
Rog Cartoons (From his website - Rog Bowles has been a full-time, freelance cartoonist for over 30 years.
His client list reads like an A-Z of British Industry, from American Express to...
Warner Music! (Who begins with Z? ...Zanussi! Nope, never worked for them).
Booked in venues from Kidderminster to Kuala Lumpur, he has entertained
at the trade exhibition stands, banquets, golf, racing, cricket days
and car launches... the full range of corporate events.
A bespoke supplier of spot cartoons, strip cartoons, advertising, book and
magazine illustration, for the past 16 years he has built up an enviable
reputation in the field of corporate entertainment as a live caricaturist.
Rog was voted the top live caricature artist of Britain in 1995 for his
ability to produce superbly accurate likenesses in an incredible
3 minutes flat.
He has entertained royalty and royally, for VIPs such as HRH
Princess Anne and PMs from John Major to Tony Blair,
and received whispered encouragement from
Frank Bruno MBE. (His exact words were "You take liberties
with me and I'll put you in a grow bag"). Heady stuff!
Who says caricaturing isn't exciting?)
