Lars-Erik Robinson

When I was about 7 years old I used to borrow my mom’s baking sheets to use as drawing boards so that I could copy my favorite comic characters. When I was done I would just lay off to the side my bed just criticizing or admiring my creation. I knew from then on that being an artist is what I wanted to be when I grew up!

In my senior year at the Ringling School of Art & Design, where I received my B.F.A in Illustration in 1994, a friend and mentor Tim McKenna introduced me to the world of caricaturing by inviting me to go draw caricatures with him at Shells Seafood Restaurant in Sarasota, FL. When I graduated from college I started drawing portraits and caricatures at Leverock’s and Pier 60 on Clearwater Beach. During this time I began my freelance business of murals, illustration, and caricature entertainment.

I have now mastered how to merge my variety of artistic talents with my out going and friendly entertainment attitude. Not just with the client in my seat, but also the crowds around me watching! “Art-Tainment!” is what I call it! I have also been a member of the National Caricaturist Network (NCN) since 1998.

Aside from business, I enjoy movies, culinary arts, and especially spending time with my wife, Debbie, and our son of 7 years, Sean... and of course our hairy friend, Jordan — a Golden Irish Setter.
