Adam has a degree in GRAPHIC DESIGN & ILLUSTRATION. Much of the artwork he creates in the studio is done digitally, which looks just like any traditional medium but is much more versatile. Digital files can immediately be professionally printed for framing or emailed directly to you!
special promotional caricatures make a fantastic alternative to traditional photos for websites, business cards and press announcements announcements.
GIFT CARICATURES of individuals or groups of any size make unique gifts for any situation and can be purchased inexpensively. Almost anything may be included as a prop or a gag and as a courtesy, you may choose the level of EXAGGERATION you want from 1 to 10. Permission must be acquired to use your artwork for your certain PROMOTIONAL APPLICATIONS.
Traditional pencil sketch/pen and ink
Traditional pencil/ink wash, spot color/watercolor
Gag gifts done in any medium
Process:
1. You call or write with idea and send photos via email. As many as possible. Close-ups, angles, etc... Remember, the photos you send are the only thing the artist has to work with so make them good and representative of the way you want the subject to look. Your ideas should be as clearly worded and thought out as possible. Additional photos for props and gags will be appreciated if possible. Please keep in mind that props and gags will cost extra and be incorporated in to the price quoted. If you wish to add more to the picture after the price is quoted, the picture will be priced accordingly and this will be discussed fully before such changes are made. (Remember, making things look easy is the magic of what an artist does. What may seem like simple prop or gag to you may take the artist an hour or so to render!)
2. Choose a style or have the artist choose an appropriate style for the drawing.
3. The artist will do a rough sketch and send it to you via email.
4. You get to approve it or make suggestions.
5. At this point, a deposit or payment in full (it is up to you) is needed to go further with the project. Payment can be made by using Paypal here or you can send a check made out to ADAM PATE to this address:
14327 Montrose Avenue
Cleveland, OH 44111
Once your payment is received, you will get a confirmation and the artist will continue on to the next step.
6. Likeness check. The artist will send you an email with the likeness of the subject to be approved. This is to make sure that the drawing looks like the subject and everything is on track before the artist continues with the rest of the drawing. You may approve or make a minor suggestion at this point as well.
7. Once the final likeness check is approved the artist will finish the rest of the artwork and add the details you asked for.
8. At this point, the artwork will be sent to you once again for final approval or suggestions. One minor suggestion is included in the price that was quoted. More than one suggestion or addition can be made but it will not be included in the quoted price.
9. Once final approval is confirmed, and your FINAL payment is received and confirmed, a maximum resolution, print ready file of your artwork will be sent to you via email along with a certificate of limited printing rights for your artwork to be professionally printed.
If you chose to have your artwork printed, framed and mounted by the artist, it will be insured and shipped with whatever priority you choose. If possible I would like to hand deliver it to you because part of the joy of creating this artwork is seeing your face when you receive it!
10. Rush orders will be accommodated when possible for a small additional fee.
