Girl up

a bit about Girl Up

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 continue this program in support of Girl Up!

Girl Up is a girl-centered leadership development initiative, focusing on equity for girls and women in spaces where they are unheard or underrepresented. They operate a global network of regional affiliates impacting 315,000 girls and youth leaders in 155 countries and all 50 U.S. states, developing transformative leaders who advance gender justice worldwide.​ To learn more about Girl Up, click here.

The first annual Twin Cities Girl Up Gala will take place this November! Girl Up chapters throughout the metro area have collaborated to give students, parents, alums, and so many more amazing women, the opportunity to celebrate female empowerment and the importance of education. This year's theme is “Taking Back Pink”, so dress up, bring your friends and family, and get ready to have an inspiring night in support of female-centered charities.

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.

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.

"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 Girl Up as well! Ruff Sketches are $10 per face.

COLORING FOR A CAUSE

Our Coloring for a Cause coloring book contains 20 different dog breeds, an accompanying “accessory” for you to color, and some facts about each breed as well! For $10 you can order a physical copy or a digital download.

We can also customize the back cover with a black and white line drawing of you or your pet! Limit 1 face per coloring book and it is an additional $10.

Don't forget to add this fun coloring book to your order!
