Inspired by London's Multiculturalism

Silu is a British artist of EU origin with a background in architecture and design. More than ten years ago, he discovered the diversity of London, and a few years later, he started doing caricature portraits. Due to the popularity of his work, he became a full-time caricature artist. Find out more on The Artist. Silu page.


Unlike the classic ones, my caricatures reveal a pleasant appearance, not ugliness and grotesqueness. The constant feedback I receive is: "I'm more beautiful in your drawing than in reality."

* In case you cancel, every payment apart from the deposit will be returned.
* In the event of cancellation by us, the whole amount paid, including the deposit, will be returned.
