a bit about Change Unleashed!
Twin Cities Caricatures has made giving back to organizations and communities a priority. The Caricatures for a Cause program was developed in the fall of 2018. We are proud to expand it by having an ongoing presence at Downtown Dogs and Dog's Day Out and lending a paw to their Change Unleashed! initiative.
These two sister businesses partner with a different, nonprofit animal organization to raise awareness and funds for their work in our community. Downtown Dogs and Dog’s Day Out’s second and third quarter 2024 Change Unleashed! partner is Can Do Canines.
“Since 1989, Can Do Canines has provided assistance dogs to people with disabilities, free of charge. Our fully-trained dogs, sometimes adopted from local animal shelters, are provided to clients with mobility challenges, hearing loss or deafness, seizure disorders, diabetes complicated by hypoglycemia unawareness, or children with autism.”

Caricature Portrait
Caricature Portraits are our standard drawing style. They're meant to be a fun, cute and silly interpretation done in a cartoon style. You have two drawing types to choose from, Traditional and Digital.
"RUFF" sketch
Ruff Sketches are an even sillier way to capture you or your pet. These sketches are done in less than half the time of our traditional drawings and are meant to be as silly as possible!
We donate the same portion of these drawings to the quarterly Change Unleashed! partner as well! Ruff Sketches are $10 per face.

DIGITAL
Digital caricatures are hand drawn on an iPad. The look of this style is similar to a traditional drawing, usually with black outlines and simplified color. This is a great format for those looking for a more modern or sleek image, or need a print-ready image.

TRADITIONAL
Traditional caricatures are drawn by hand on paper and are a combination of black marker outlines and simplified color using colored pencils. This is the best format for those that love handmade art, and love the texture of a hand drawn picture.
