While most caricaturists and cartoonists will have some education background in design, this is not necessary since many artists are self taught. A look at an artist’s / company’s portfolio will give you a good idea about the range of work they can handle. These days, most artists rely on advanced software to design everything from cartoons and illustrations to brochures and books. Cartoonists and caricaturists are usually sought after by publishing houses as well as individuals looking for design work. Many artists are also attached to a newspaper or a magazine where they might publish regular work like cartoons etc. There is also a growing scope for these professionals to work in television.

Cartoonists and caricature artists usually charge either on the basis of 1 project and its scope, or on an hourly basis. The pricing differs for every artist, and is not only dictated by the scope of the project, but also by artist’s reputation and experience. Make sure you check both before hiring one.
