As an ambidextrous caricaturist, I do caricature drawing since 1990 in Singapore. Einstien from Norway is the pioneer caricaturist with certain years before me, then follow by Eric Ng, Saik, Poon Ee Way whose were my senior. Chong Jit Leong, which known having shop at Yishun area doing full time portrait and caricature around that time as well if not wrong. Not much people doing caricature for events fringe art during that period. Nowadays, more than 22 active caricaturists in the industry.

Caricature at Warren Golf Club
That was great to meet Ivan and Lee Lee (http://www.sg-airbrushtattoo.blogspot.com/)in the event while I do caricature for Warrant Golf Club’s event. They are doing wire crafts.I don’t like to draw people with mask or wearing sunglasses because no matter how good you produce the drawing but while you just look at the drawing, it could be looks like anyone because your main features was being covered.

Professional Dough Figurine Making
Some event companies was checking if there are professional dough figurine artist in Singapore that able to produce the dough figurine doll which able to keep for a very long time but sill in a good condition because they had been come across some client’s complaint about the flour doll which ordered and given to their special guests or VIPs getting crack or having mould after few weeks later they received it, this caused their client felt very embarrassing.
I did not have any art piece that having such problem, but I do have 2 art pieces given by a local Singaporean Dough Figurine Artist May Toh’ in 2007 (Chinese Pig horoscope year, which I had been post in this blog before).
While I take out these art pieces from my cupboard, both of them were still having a good condition.
As I know, May Toh (http://www.talentsdata.8m.com/maytoh.htm) had learnt her Dough Figurine making skill from 2 masters from China. So I think May Toh is one of the best choices for quality dough figurine making for any of your special guests or VIP.
Another quality Singaporean Dough Figurine Artist I found is Madam Tang (http://tangsart.blogspot.com). Her art pieces were also quality and able to keep for many years as well.
I did meet some professional China Dough Figurine Artist whose came from China during ‘Ang Bao River’ event and related Chinese New Year events. I think their art pieces could be another best choice but thought you need to wait until they come to Singapore during Chinese New Years period.

Tea Leaf Fortune Telling
If you ever watch Harry Potter movies, you could find one of the scene that Harry was in the Tea Leaf Fortune Telling class and being red his fortune by his lecturer. Tea Leaf Fortune Telling is a real fortune telling item in our realistic world in my research.In Singapore, there is a Tea Leaf Fortune Teller I know which is Angela Yip, she is a Rainbow Calligrapher as well in Chinatown.
Raju's Parrot Fortune Telling
I knew Raju for many years,and I know him always be a The Tarik Man or Kacang Putih Man in the event. That was surprise to see him in an event as a Parrot Fortune Teller! In Singapore, you can find some Parrot Fortune Teller in Little India but fewer of them can speak English, hence not much Parrot Fortune Teller appears in events.Parrot Fortune Telling is a type of fortune telling that get a Parrot to pick a card which pre-written a standard explanation of specific type of luck category, while the guest just sit nearby, the Parrot will feel your luck, hence it will pick one of the card which belonging to you, thus you can see your current luck status.
The Parrot just getting freedom walk on the table, the fortune teller will command the Parrot to pick any cards on the table. The Parrot won’t fly away because it had been trained, I heard such Parrot only able to find in India.
Parrot Fortune Telling is one of the common and best choice especially in cultural events.
