Maybe the opera house in the background with some Singapore sign in there?”

Engagement Present Caricature (Diving theme)

Order Details:

“I just came across this website and I'm extremely intrigued by it! Seems like a wonderful engagement gift!

My two friends (Leanne & Dave) just returned from a year in Thailand. Dave proposed to Leanne under the sea in August.

My idea for the cartoon is an under the sea concept with the two of them in their diving gear, apart from their heads (obviously). Dave had a little treasure chest with a letter for Leanne inside it asking her to marry him, but for the sake of this cartoon I thought it would be better if it was holding an engagement ring? I would also like to have a sign saying "Sail Rock" and the date ‘7th August 2015’”

"Thanks so much for all your hard work. You're very talented and il definitely be recommending you for gift ideas" - Sinead
