Top-notch Caricaturist,
Serving Charlotte ​and The Carolinas 

Hi, I'm caricaturist Lonnie Knabel. I provide fun and memorable caricatures for your special event, party, wedding reception or corporate function in Charlotte - and parts of North and South Carolina.

Make Them Smile!

My caricatures capture the likeness with fun and whimsy. And unlike many artists, I don't use giant noses and big chins as a crutch. You might say that my caricatures are "kind" - something your guests will appreciate.

I Take Commissions, Too

Commissioned caricatures are a great way to commemorate and honor someone special in your life! Examples include:
  • Graduations
  • Birthdays
  • Weddings
  • Anniversaries
  • Retirement parties
  • Employee / boss / teammate appreciation
  • Family gatherings
  • And more!
