Who we are

The Artist – Kumar

I’m Kumar, a professional caricature artist based in Sydney with over 31 years of experience drawing live caricatures across Australia and internationally.

Originally trained in architecture, I hold bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Building Architecture. However, my true passion led me to a career in caricature art.

Bringing joy through my art is my greatest reward. I’m inspired by the countless faces I get to draw, and nothing makes me happier than turning the grumpiest expression into a smile. I truly love what I do.

‘Superb caricatures of the British in Britain, giving breath to the cliche.’ ———————–Indian Express

‘This is one INLAKS Scholarship that has gone a lot further than the sponsors thought.’ —–The Hindustan Times

‘Kumar’s water colours bring the locations graphically to life.’ ———————————-The Times of India

‘Kumar’s sketches reveal an eye for detail in the fine line work and the intricate backdrops.’ —The Pioneer

p>Over the years I’ve won many awards and my work has been published on Page1 of many newspapers including the Sydney Morning Herald. Few years back, I was formally invited by the governments of South Korea and Singapore as a State Guest in a capacity of an eminent caricature artist. I’ve also held number of solo exhibitions of my works. Going forward, I would like to be known as the No.1 caricature artist in Australia.
