SPLAToons Online - artwork by Adrian Osborne

Adrian "OZ" Osborne is an artist, musician and public speaker , who has worked as a freelance caricaturist since 1992, during which time he has drawn over 30,000 portraits at corporate and private and events around Australia.

Osborne's individual drawing style and colourful delivery has created a demand for his services- and with the ability to draw a caricature in around 2 minutes, he has established himself as one of the "fastest felt tips" in the business.

The growth of the internet has seen his company SPLAToons develop into a "virtual studio" which attracts clients from around the world to his website at www.splatoons.com; a self confessed techno junkie, he established his first website in 1994 offering an on-line cartoon service- one of the first of its kind.

With the advance of mobile communication technology, Osborne now delivers his artwork by email and mobile phone to clients around the world.

SPLAToons became the first liquor-licensed cartoon studio in 2000, when Osborne saw an opportunity to combine two of his favourite pastimes (ie drawing and drinking red wine) into a business which now sells his artwork on wine bottles Australia wide, while he dreams of the 2 day working fortnight and the 3 day lunch.
