UPDATE MARCH 2011!!!

HARRINGTOONS presents CARICAMATION!

I've decided to take my 20+ yrs of live caricature experience and the last 5 yrs experience creating animations for iphone/ ipad apps in flash and combine them for a ONE-OF-A-KIND CUTTING EDGE EXPERIENCE! To my knowledge, I am the 1st and only to offer Live Digital ANIMATED Caricatures with SOUND!

HARRINGTOONS presents CARICAMATION!
LIVE DIGITAL CARICATURES THAT ARE ANIMATED!!
Introducing Caricamation! The Evolution of the Live Digital Caricature Revolution!
You've seen caricatures, you may even have seen digital caricatures, but you haven't seen Caricamation!
While digital caricatures are nifty-they still fail to capitalize on the potential of today's technology and multimedia, it is a still, silent image.
Caricamation is a digital caricature that is ANIMATED AND also can have SOUND! Essentially it is a mini-cartoon customised to your company/ event!
Not only is your company's logo in front of the eyes of your customers, your audio pitch can be in their ears as well!
Choose from popular themes or have a completely new unique one custom designed for your needs.
Available for all parties/ events/ trade shows/ conventions, school assemblies, etc.

HARRINGTOONS LIVE DIGITAL CARICAMATIONS!!!

It's not just a DIGITAL CARICATURE, it's that and a MOVING CARTOON! And your company's logo/ info will not only be viewed but also HEARD!
And everyone who posts theirs on FB, youtube, blog etc. will be spreading YOUR companies message!

I work on the impressive Cintiq21ux digital display screen. This is the tool professional animators use to create the Simpsons, Spongebob, Shrek, Toy Story, etc.
The Cintiq can also be connected to large screen monitors, or via projector, to display the process to the largest audiences. I now also offer ipad caricatures.

TRADITIONAL CARICATURE:
Patrick strives to hear LAUGHTER from his subjects and audience when he draws, not "oh isn't that nice...(yawn)"...And the louder the laughter the funnier the drawings get! Patrick does not draw every face the same. With over 20 years experience, he also has a sixth sense for the more sensitive sitter and handles them appropriately. (though he's not a mindreader!)

Patrick specializes in Cartoony humorous, FUN likenesses and captures the UNIQUENESS of each person (and/or animal). He has worked seasonally as a professional caricaturist at Sesame Place, Wildwood and Atlantic City NJ. boardwalks, Philadelphia Phillies games, The Sunoco Welcome America Event in Philadelphia, and numerous private and corporate events including Pet store grand-openings and dog birthday parties!

Patrick has served as political & editorial cartoonist for the Irish American and Filmore Herald newspapers. Presently serving as the editorial cartoonist for the Black Urban Times. He has won Grand Prize and 1st Place Awards in the Homer Davenport International Political Cartoon Contests and won an award for Party Retail Style at the 2004 NCN Convention. He has illustrated coloring books, comic strip and comic book and children's book projects and his comic strip "Windy Gap" was syndicated. His digital caricature of Marilyn Monroe is published in a compilation book "Marilyn in Art" by Chaucer Press 2006. Presently doing character design and animation for ipad/ iphone video game apps.

• Patrick was not only one of the most personable and talented performers, his professionalism in accommodating me after we had to reschedule went over & above. He already had a gig scheduled for our rain date. He gave me several options to use my non-refundable deposit so it didn't go to waste, and in the end, asked if he could come to our event a bit earlier so he could accommodate me, while still having time to make it to his next gig. We worked it out and he was the hit of the event! He really went to extra mile to ensure our satisfaction. Highly recommended! Fabulous, talented artist! -- Dina K, Bensalem, PA, 9/12/2009
• Patrick was great and extremely accommodating given the fact we had to postpone our party due to weather. He was prompt, stayed longer than originally contracted and everyone loved the final product. The caricatures were terrific and even though exaggerated, looked exactly like each person (we chose Patrick's "no mercy" style). We even received several thank you notes from friends and family who attended and love their artwork (a great keepsake for our 25th annual party). We would definitely rehire Patrick and recommend him to others. Thanks again. -- Carolyn C, Jenkintown, PA, 12/19/2009
• Very satisfied with Harringtoons. Punctual. Great with the children, he had a good sense of humor. Artistic expression was excellent. Would re-hire. -- Donna I, Erial, NJ, 9/12/2009
• We were thankful that Patrick was available as we had a last minute request. We never would have found him without GigMasters. We will definately keep his number for future events. Cathy Akins, CCLS Nemours/A.I. duPont Hospital for Children Wilmington, DE -- Cathy A, Wilmington, DE, 4/21/2012
