Dan Almariei Caricaturist from Gulfport, FL

Why Dan [al-mahr-yay]? He's [pruh-fesh-uh-nl] 22+ years of Caricature, Illustration and Sculpture. A few additional years of silliness. He'll get the job done and make you laugh. He's [ek-uh-nom-i-kuhl] Within minutes, he can produce a high-quality, shaded caricature. Not just a sketch, but a portrait-quality original. That means you get more for your money. You do the math. He's [tal-uhn-tid] His award-winning black and white shaded technique* will amaze you. It's not just a cartoon, it's a piece of art. He's good with [feys-ez]. If you got one, he can draw it. The likeness is undeniable. Just ask the ISCA**. Or his mother. He's [in-ter-nash-uh-nlee] recognized. He spent his last 20 years in Europe where he was invited to over 20 international festivals, he's been published in 5 countries and won a bunch of awards in Italy, France, Ireland, Spain and Romania. He also won a few awards in Las Vegas, Nevada, but you know, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas***. And some others in St.Pete, Florida. (And we are talking only about the last few years, since he moved in USA). You'll love him! [seer-ee-uh s-lee]. [rek-uh g-nish-uh n] * First place Outstanding Black and White technique - ISCA 2010.
