My name is Rodney Pike. Most in the art world who know me, know me as rwpike, which is my username at several of my online portfolios and sites I’m a member of. I am from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. My work is a bit different than your average photo manipulator. I do all sorts of photo manipulation but photo-manipulated caricatures; political satire and caricature illustration is really where I’m at right now. I specialize in photo-manipulated caricatured illustrations perfect for magazines, books, posters etc. I also do caricature portraits. I have done and am accepting commissions. My clients include companies such as FHM Magazine, Tennis Magazine and Bauer Media. I am a member of the ISCA.
