“The world's best caricaturist. ”
Jason Chatfield, New York Cartoons
“Find any artist who puts more thought and effort into their outreach, I guarantee there’s no way in hell they produce better content, with anywhere near the regularity. Tom Richmond gave me my start in a career in illustration, and has been a mentor ever since. TISW is the standard level I hope to someday reach. Fat chance! Don’t be a putz- follow The Ink Stained Wretch. ”
Ed Steckley Illustrator, The Steckley ‘Stack!
“A must for caricaturists, or those aspiring to be, but also a fun read for those of us who veer away from this dark art.”
Alex Hallatt, Alex Hallatt's Illustrated Epistle
