Artist George V. Edwards is a versatile artist. He does a variety of art mediums, mainly concerned with the depiction of the human face and its features and expressions, whether it be caricatures, paintings, drawings, or photography. He does serious portraits in oil, pastel, and charcoal. Other services are framing pictures and digital art. Caricatures and portraits of people can be created from photographs supplied by the customer or taken by the artist if the subject is available. Samples of his work can be seen on his Thumbtack profile page.
Caricature of live subjects at parties, conventions, etc., are $60 an hour, with a two hour minimum. Of course that $120 could be only one hour if you want, many places charge more than that for one hour, but so far everyone has requested the two hours. Events include weddings, corporate picnics, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, birthdays, proms, receptions, graduations, fairs, just about any reason you can think of for getting a bunch of people together and having entertainment. Many of my jobs through Thumbtack are of this nature. Caricature samples on his Thumbtack profile page are visable at the top of the page.

Portrait painting includes Oil Paintings, a 16x20 canvas starts at $350, more than one person or a larger size would be extra. Pastels are in color, they start at $185, a little smaller image, so that it has room to be matted and fit into a 16x20 frame. Charcoals are black and white drawings, starting at $120, the same size as Pastels. Charcoals and Pastels are done on art paper but should be framed under glass for the best display and protection.
